RIP GAME??!!

[EeBee]

Guys, is this game dying already? IF yes, do some promotions or something. im Spooked

[Intra]

It was dying a long time ago lol. They patched one location on Doll House and made tall boxes un-phaseable, but didn't touch any of the completely game breaking glitches I discovered like 2-3 patches ago. The new UI is gross, something changed on the visual settings end, the audio sounds weird too... I don't even know man. lol

Definitely no! This game is getting even better over the time and the dev team is doing very well adding new features and removing bugs from the game.
Just be patient and you'll see this game as one of the tops.

Do you even know what early access means? It means you're buying a half-finished game to test it for the devs and report bugs to them and give them their feedback about what new features you want.
If you had expected you'll get a flawless game with tons of features, then don't buy early access games anymore.

Look at the amount of hours played I have. Don't preach to me. Your puny 3.1 hours played trying to talk to me like you know something about the game. My 147 hours laughs at you.

Early access is a gimmick. Look at games like DayZ and tell me what would happen if those games didn't have "early access" and waited until they were "complete". Nobody would play them because their concept would be outdated and the amount of time they invest in the product would be worth nothing in the market.

Early access is how smaller devs make incomplete games marketable for profit. By the time full release comes around, you and I both know this game won't see the light of day.

This is coming from me having 147 hours played. I'm basically the resident expert of the game.

And you know what? Not only did the patch seem to regress the state of Dead Realm by ruining multiple settings and making it overall uglier, but it demonstrates a disconnect between the devs and the game.

Do you have any idea how I managed to make this linear thoughtless party game with no depth to last this long for me? Because of the glitches. Over 2/3rds of my play time was playing solo to look for glitches. Without them, the game is completely boring.

There are fundamental issues of game balance, lack of content, and weak player options that limit the game as a whole that cannot be fixed from a design perspective to retain the game's integrity. The game is a failure. Unless they were to introduce a whole new mode, make that the primary mode, and rebalance the maps and player mechanics from scratch, this game has no future, and that's why it's an early access cash grab.

Despite being a cash grab, I got more than my value out of it from trolling, finding glitches, playing around with the physics, etc. But slowly and surely all those glitches will be removed and the interface getting worse with an already dead playerbase will put the nail in the coffin for this fad early access game.

The popularity spike came from twitch and youtube, and now that the playerbase has sat down with the game, they realize it's nothing special and are moving on to the next fad or their more tangible mainstays.

So keep your early access "defending the devs" nonsense to yourself.

You got him good! Well yeah, it doesn't offer a lot, it needs more popularity, but for a longer time if it wants to survive. Game also has weird hardware requirements compared to other better looking and bigger games (I have low FPS, but yeh, my PC is old, so I don't complain much about the low FPS). My friend bought this game on a sale for himself, me and 1-2 other friends, it could offer a lot more and be something bigger, but it's Early Access and we know how those projects end.

I don't have to spend days of my life just to rate a game as good or bad...But for the 3.1 hours that I have played, I haven't faced any bugs (or at least noticable ones). Finding lobbies is just the biggest problem with the game.

Why would I defend the devs? And what would I even get for defending them?
I'm not trying to defend nor hate on the devs, I'm just saying this game can be really good if the devs focus hard on it.
And for the bugs and glitches, they're basically in every game.
Not every single bug makes the game unplayable...And as of myself, I haven't seen any game-breaking glitches or something like that during my playing sessions.
I'm ok with the 150 hours that you spent playing this game, you may have seen what I haven't seen yet.

I bet after the early access there would be tons of players

[タコモンスター]

This is common problem with any early access game, mainly because people are stupid and don't understand what beta means or early access. Young gamers are used too being cartered too and getting everything they want right now and if they don't have it I can just the the DLC. Any indie game is fighting an up hill battle when it comes too their generation.

logged in today at 10:30..... 2 active games without even a full lobby.... this is just.... pure sadness...

[Lowrater]

I agree! I logged on yesterday to play it, and it was complete empty. I'm shocked since the beginning was so fun. As Freddy says, only two games is shown (MAX)..

It's really sad. yeh

[LaPerish]

Im going to buy this game right now because EARLY ACCESS ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥! Add me if yall wanna play

[GameOverJoey]

I love this game and its concept. I have almost 30 hours of gameplay. But in my eyes, its going to die if the devs don't start pushing new content such as modes. The game itself is way to easy for the ghost. The devs need to implement a hardcore mode so that way the ghost does not have the hardbeat option. I feel this would attract more players to the game. I have yet to loose a game as ghost. I also feel that a few of the levels lack hiding spots. I am hoping since this is only early access that they have much of what I said implemented in the game soon.
