Is this a troll or are you very dense? As the consumer I wanted a FINSIHED game not this clearly unfinished crap. What type of bootlicker do you have to be to back the devs delivering an unfinished product? I think in real life you are a pig masquerading as this "common sense" type when the common sense between the fans is that the game is still unfinished.You both have an extremely romanticized view of what a consumer is entitled to. There is not a "right" here - there is no legally binding agreement other than that in exchange for your money you are provided a good or service - which has been provided. Even then,
There are plenty of scenarios out there where money was exchanged and nothing was delivered, or a literally unplayable product was delivered, this is not the case.
I just find it intellectually dishonest when folks come on here complaining the devs don't listen to them as if they're entitled to that - no one is - and then they turn around and churn out threads like this as if throwing a tantrum is going to have the devs ensorcelled into bending to everyone's demands. That's childish and pathetic, some posters here must have not been spanked as a kid with the level of pathetic rants like this.
And yes, that's just my opinion, I still think there are far more constructive engagement techniques that can be undertaken but I stand by my original take in that someone getting bent out of shape over a video game is gross.
Though it is common and almost the rule that you have the fanboy types mostly on the company forum.
Yeah video games are in decline specifically RPGs, of course 1999 to 2004 was golden for the genre and games in general (love alpha centauri). Torment and Fallout are still some of my favorite games.have you honestly reached the late-game in BL? In warband it took much longer for the game to become bonkers and blatantly pushing anti-player mechanics. In BL that happens much earlier, and it's crap for it
well... - baldurs gate, nvwn, kotor, the FO games (all up to NV included were great games - all after were garbage), the GTA games up to San Andreas (which's still the best), the first Dragon Age, Star Wars Galaxies, original WoW, Warcraft RTS series, Star Craft, birth of DOTA & growth of Counter-Strike, Hitman series going full rage, TES with Morrowind and Oblivion (way way better than Skyrim ever was), Jedi Academy, VTM Bloodlines, Battlefield 1&2, original AC, Half-life, diablo 1&2, etc.
Many of the greatest games were released between 98 and 2010. The generic crap games were overlooked and often forgotten, but the most important part's that PC gaming was at it's peak and had the most engaging RPG games... Today we have absolutely zero RPG games based upon good systems like the PnP, stories are becoming less engaging and often very braindead, with very few and rare exceptions (like TW3); Mechanics and total depth of features / gameplay / gamedesign has been steadily decreasing while they invest ever so more in graphics...
You are being intellectually dishonest to say that "it's the same" or that "it's a lie" that games were much better at that period. Than there's the experimental era with the first few 3d attempts like Doom, Redneck Rampage, Duke Nuken... Those were also golden because they brought completely new things and opened the doors for all of the greatest games that came a bit later...
Can't understand where you are coming from, you basically pulled a niche mostly unknown practice out your arse to justify what became the mainstream, yet we have physical proof that your point's basically dishonest... Only fools would buy these games - the only thing that would grab masses by their balls were games carrying blockbuster movie titles - these were pure hype and pure garbage, I have to agree there... Yet any gamer knew that at the time, even the youngsters (I was among the youngsters in the late 90s)
Well at least the game is better than most sequels made today, the game is fun! I expected more from the devs, a complete and total upgrade of every aspect from warband is what I wanted. That's all.
