Why bad reviews?

Suspecting 12 years old kids of new gamer generation?

Likewise in the sense of no one cares about your interpretation of reality. You knew that though so again cute attempts at trolling.

This conversation is over now, you have zero talking points or counter arguments just nonstop garbage because this is the only way anyone pays attention to you. I feel sorry for you for the fact you feel the need to have such despicable attention seeking behaviours.

Unlike you when I say I'm done conversing I mean it.

Hope you can sort out your personality issue of needing to pick pointless arguments with people online.

None of which offer a single valid reason as to why your personal taste so far as somethig as irrelavant to the game play as gender matters in the least. If you want a counter point start by having one yourself. So far you have thrown a pointless tantrum over nothing worth wasting a breath over. Give it a rest. The opportunity to offer any reasons anyone may give a flying rats back side about has past. You're done , you never had anything to begin with ffs. Literal mountain made of a mole hill. Sad.

I'm gonna be real here. It's way too early for positive and negative reviews. The game hasn't been out a full on week yet. People need to learn to give a game time, and give a proper review. So far so good however. I did have some serious hangups during gameplay but I found a fix for that (I just set affinity for the program to run only 4 of my cores instead of all 8). Smooth as butter on a hookers ass.

Oh? So it's too early to post reviews? It's too early to complain about a ton of bugs and add some spyware on top of them? Let me guess, it's not too early to takes peoples money though?

Yes, but the game has potential and a good story line.. and the devs appear to be trying to put things right aka 4GB update. Most games have bugs from the start that has been a fact of life in games for some time. Rather than whinge give it some time. This game has the makings of a classic.

[warmblood1]

Well I did say it has potential. No need to self-justify, I simply like the game, warts and all.

The same way the game can be updated, reviews can be updated. If the game changes so can the reviews. Don't try to fool yourself just because you might've spent your own money on it and want to self-justify it for your own sanity.

How many people actually take the time to change their reviews? This is the "Steam Community" once someone goes apecrap over a game they slam a bunch of negativity and then bounce forever. Only a very select few are willing to change their reviews. And with how it works on here, once a game is mixed or in the negative, it stays that way forever. At least from what I've seen. Then again I've only been on steam like 3 years so maybe I'm wrong.


And yes, since this is a 1.0 release that is like 2 almost 3 days old. I'd say it's too early for EITHER positive or negative reviews. Once it's been a week or so with some patches, then I'll be more than happy to slam down the "You messed up" and "Here is what is good" train.


No logic in jumping on a bandwagon of people upset over a couple of bugs or "Spyware" as the local steam potheads call it. Better to observe first.


But hey, everyone does their own thing. Hell, some Steam People write a 3 page long hatemail over the first time they see a simple texture glitch on a box so hey. You do you.

Point being is that is ridiculous nonsense we should be over post "gamergate" .

There's valid reasons for a negative review, that simply isn't one of them.

I guess you don't know what it means to create a character.

I do and that is not anything that effects the game play so much it is worth a negative review. This game does not have that feature. It's really not an issue in the least. If you absolutely cannot stand to play a game as a predetermined character, you eliminate a ton of games from go with such asinine criteria.

I've had the game for over 2 weeks. The game has been in beta and was given to reviewers for months now. So, in short, you're wrong.

Nope you are wrong is making that assumption. Valid point raised as with ALL PC games there are launch issues. And they get patched, post patching if things remain a hot mess then you have a legitimate grievance. Setting expectation in reality would help you a great deal in that regard. The reality being launch issues/bugs are something any PC gamer should expect. There's just far too many ways to configure hardware and software for it go any other way.

This is why I have not yet purchased it. I was expecting issues. Once I see solutions to those I can safely make a purchase. It certainly seems like the developers care and will solve the issues present now as soon as possible.

Yes it's too early. Any PC gamer with sense understands as much. At least flag it early review subject to change or something similar if you can't wait for launch patches. Every game has them and reviews are not needed to know this much.

It's not an anti consumer attitude either, it's simple common sense. Live long enough and you might develop some yourself

I kickstarted this game : 2 times... I have waiting a long long time to play it...

And now, I cannot play because of a stupid forced key mapping not working on my computer...

I'm not even able to finish the prologue...

I'm waiting for next week for my review : but really, I shouldn't...

Because of the history of this game on kickstarter (they kickstarted it 2 times, saying that they will not ne able to finish it with the first funding)

And I was probably the stupidiest people on Earth to have donate to the kickstarter 2 times...

So yes, I'm angry, yes I feel scammed, but be assured that next week if this stupid problem of keyboard mapping is not solved, I will write the most vitriolic review on steam for my 3 minutes of play that costed me 40$...

Oh, and I din't receive any of the bonus I paid for...

Angry JPR out!

there are not bad its simple a 6/10 at the current state, i think the could increase to 7/10 with some features and bug fixes (more languages, better quest overview) or maybe 8/10 if they want really update they game (better character design/animation, cutscenes,....).

I read some place on here your KS bonus comes next week. Dunno myself though for sure, as I was not a backer. Makes sense to wait for launch issues to be solved before doing a review too. If things don't get solved then your review would be most helpful to others yet to get the game. Even if they do get solved, I'm sure said review would still be useful to others. Hope dies last though, and it does seem the devs care and want to solve the problems. Could still be money well spent after all yet. At least hope is still alive and kicking for the time being :)

All I see YamaKami's post is "wah wah wah I can't afford the game but I'll post about it on discussions as if my opinion mattered [hint: it doesn't]". Either buy the game or shut the ♥♥♥♥ up -- plain and simple.

You/re seeing things that are not there then my friend. I've several things preventing me from buying this game (at this time). All of which relating to the game, and none of which are the meager price tag. I've been candid about these things and am still hopeful the devs will get them sorted. I'm following a few threads to that endeavour.

So if you haven't anything of merit to discuss with me, then you can STFU about myself rather. I am not the topic, and you have abhorrent analitcal skills (proven such by your quoted point regarding your oberservations) paired with zero knowledge of that topic.

unfinished game sold as complete = bad reviews. that's simple as it comes.

So far, they still have to adress:
-shooting mechanics, make it more comprehensive and rework the crosshair to include hit chances/range. better: add hit damage, like wasteland 2.
-FIX THE AI ACCURACY. if you cant hit them, why should they?
-keyboard binding.... FULL binding.
-menus that cover ALL the controls.
-help subsection in the menus.
-proper adjustability of the graphics (MSAA, resolution, proper ultra settings....)
-Waypoint/objective highlight system
-faster fast travel (wasteland did it, why cant they?)
-mouse control that actually gives you freedom, and that is bound to the camera
-fix textures, several spots PER MAP are extremely LOW RES.
-fix missing item graphics
-fix translations
-remove the "beta" release spyware.
-fix sound, especially atmospherics that are borderline nonexistant, voices arent blended/localized at all.
-fix levelling. current requirements are FAR TO HIGH and people finish the story stuck at level 15 (600000-700000 exp ish)
they absolutely must reduce the levelling cost or increase massively the late game exp rewards. you should be able to hit level 35-40 by the end, doing exclusively the main missions.

i'm giving them a week before i drop a red review... because it's such a cool looking game.
It has a ton of potential...

[MaWo79]

Pfff… all you have addressed is merely cosmetical. I'd rather have them to fix all the broken quests that can't be finished or get you stuck somewhere. Or they could prevent the game from deleting all your items after 26 hours of playtime. How about that?

But all that wouldn't be a problem if they had play tested the game a bit more (or at all) and given it a few more weeks extra work to fix the worst bugs before release.
