Re: Review: Balan Wonderworld - A Charmless, Confusing Fossil From The Creators Of Sonic

@Scoopz I’ve been playing it all morning and it’s really not that bad. Glad I didn’t listen to this review to be totally honest.

And also that’s not how game publishing works, if you don’t support they’ll never get another chance. I’m all for boycotting ***** publishers doing ***** things but if one of my favorite developers makes a so-so game I’m going to support him so that I might see future projects from him. Nothing wrong with giving a game dev feedback and letting them know how you feel while still supporting them.

After playing this game for a solid 3 hours I have to say it’s really not THAT bad. I didn’t play on switch so I didn’t experience the technical issues but I’d give the game a 6.5. Game is definitely a bit dated by today’s standards but it’s also not a game you wouldn’t want to finish (like the way I felt about 06’ sonic the hedgehog)

If the game goes on deep sale I’d recommend giving it a try.

@Snatcher I don’t have to hate something to call it how it is. It was a decent pve defense game but it’s battle royale iteration is trash. But these days it’s more about addicting formulas than actually making good games.

And like I said it’s fine if people like that, I’m not hating on them I just can’t wait until the wave is over and people have moved on to another game.

Dunno why people are so hurt about that opinion

Re: Trials Of Mana Has Surpassed One Million Sales Worldwide

I’m so glad this series saw a resurgence. I haven’t played the original since the snes rom translation in the early 2000’s but on top of that I was able to play a remake as well. Even got an art book and other merch. I would love to see a remaster of legend of mana, the last good mana IMO

@Friendly I never said it was acceptable I said I’m not surprised and that’s just the landscape of AAA development . A lot of money and time and marketing went into cyberpunk and obviously it needed more time but they afford to delay it any longer and I get that.
But The dev promised to fix these issues fairly soon so it’s fair enough, so Im not gonna exaggerate and throw negative comments everywhere, because it’s actually a really good game even with all the bugs and features they didn’t have time to add(again, unless you’re on legacy hardware)

I’m not saying it’s appropriate but I understand. I’d rather have what we got rather than nothing at all because like I said, I’m having a great time playing it (minus bugs)

@Friendly it’s more like , so the game doesn’t work and a week later the devs promise to fix the worst of it within 2 months. Ok that’s fair. Like if they say they have 2 huge patches coming up, i think I’ll reserve all the exaggerating Criticisms for a later date.

Either way it doesn’t matter, once they touch up the game it’ll be even better than before and that’s not a bad thing.

@Altina every video you guys link just proves my point, a lot of the things left out of the game as described in concept art and prerelease footage was stuff they didn’t have time to finish and had to cut out. The rest is just technical issues that can be fixed. And I never said we 100% got what they were pushing to us but let’s not act like we didn’t get a decent game as is.

I’d still give it an 8 even with the issues (on non legacy hardware that is) as I went into the game with no large expectations and I’m still playing the game and having a blast. I’ll even do another build on hard mode when they finally fix all the bugs and add some of the things they wanted to add initially (which we all know is going to come)

@Friendly all that video showed were technical issues and some questionable game design. And yea, sure the base ps4 and xbone were next to unplayable in a lot of ways, those will be A bit more playable when the next big patch hits. And honestly I’m not too surprised it came out that way. If I was one of those gamers I wouldn’t be running out for a refund tbh, if the devs are going to fix it, fine. That’s just the state of gaming these days, especially when you have a brand new ambitious AAA title.

@RupeeClock i dunno about no mans sky, I saw plenty of videos complaining about multiplayer and yet they never promised gamers multiplayer. A lot of people were unrealistically anticipating more then they were going to get and then blaming the dev for it. Like the game no mans sky was at day one, aside from the graphical issues was pretty much what I expected. The game it is now is something I figured it would have organically evolved to be even without all the backlash

Re: Ori Director Criticises "Snake Oil Salesmen" Behind No Man's Sky, Cyberpunk, And Fable

@Friendly honestly most of that video was technical limitations and graphical issues. A lot of which will be fixed. I think the main culprit of that was too many platforms, receive management issues and unforeseen issues during development l. For the most part I got about 80 percent of what they said the game was going to be and it’s very enjoyable. I wouldn’t say I was very “deceived”. Unless you’re playing on a base ps4/xbone
