So, I'm not someone that complains when things go bad because I usually don't bother and just move on without giving a shit, but I've been following this game since its very first version, and I felt like posting about it because it has reached the breaking point, at least for me. So please someone answer me this :
What the fuck happened to this game and its creator ???
Like seriously, I remember ArcGames being active on this thread and discussing pretty much anything about his game and whatever else, but then since the whole Act 3 shitfest, it feels like he just does his own thing regardless of how bad the game turns out.
I get it that he probably ate a lot of shit since Act 3, but man, when there's smoke, there is fire. There are good reasons why people are pissed about how things turned out; no, it's not about the story because, at the end of the day, it's not our business to tell him how to write his own story. No, the real reason is that the game is in a worse state than it was before this damned Act 3 :
- There was no need of a fancy convoluted combat system.
- There was also no need in reworking it, like, what ? 3 times ? It's not that people wanted it to change; it's that people didn't want it in the first place.
- And for the last straw, because this is why I'm not going to bother about this game anymore : there was no need to change the damn UI of this game, especially, ESPECIALLY when it is worse!
Remember when I was saying that I've been around since the first version of the game ? Well, it's been what now, 220~ updates since then right ? Well, the thing is, when you play since this long ago, you save A LOT. Like I was something like 200 pages long, and I think you guys are starting to understand what's the big problem here :
Hey ArcGames, your new UI allows us to have 100 pages of save slots, pretty generous, right ? Except that, since the UI ""overhaul"" well, i have my save at something like page 200 or whatever : there is no option to go beyond page 100. The moment I click to another save page, I will not be able to come back to my main save. And for what reason ? Nothing. Because you decided to fuck up your UI that was good enough. Like every terrible decision since Act 3, the best way to fix the problems that you have created was to simply go back and turn around. But no : you double down, you triple down even.
So yeah, you guys enjoy the next five updates dedicated to fix the problems that he made himself, but I'm done. It fucking sucks to follow a project that you genuinely like for so long and watching it getting destroyed for the dumbest reasons. I'm not trying to create waves or whatever; I just felt like venting about it. I wouldn't even have typed that much of a wall of text if it wasn't for a project that I liked very much.
