I have my own list of likes and dislikes about this game and I quite like it on the whole, though there are some things that I would like to be shown differently. But I can say the same about almost any game and Ravenous is certainly much better than an average game here if you sum everything up.
But what I found reading this thread that the Dev is actively involved in the discussion here and that he cannot stand any criticism, taking it personally. He often verbally charges those who dare to criticize the game.
Moreover there are a few fanboys here who become very aggressive at even slightest attempts of constructive criticism, often going personal against those who criticize. I don't think such attitude benefits the game, the Dev or the local community
I actually welcome CONSTRUCTIVE critisizm. Its very difficult to see a lot of what is said as that, when its masked as insults.
A lot of what annoys me is having to repeat the same things over and over because people choose not to read about a game before they dive in.
Do I expect everyone to like the story/game? no.
Does it piss me off when people just want to talk shit because they feel as if they should have a game tailor-made for them, especially on a pirate site? Fuck yes.
If you have some constructive criticism, by all means, spill it. I'll consider what you are saying.
But please, make sure it comes across as constructive, and not just as a whiny, self entitled, player, that is mad that shit doesn't go the way you want.
I know for a fact that I have made a few mistakes, as this is my 1st project.
I try to improve constantly.
Making a game, isn't fast or easy, and when complaints aren't legit, it very frustrating.
Especially when those complaints are based on choices that I make, and have nothing to do with anything other than what the poster of said complaint, personally likes, or dislikes.
THOSE are the times that I say "Its my game, I'll do what I want."
If you have some legit advice, I'm all ears.
If you just want to whine, or try to look clever/cool on the forum with your insult, then you can fuck right off.
If you dont like the game, fine. don't play.
If you just want to stick around in a thread after voicing your distaste for my game/story to keep replying with negativity,
all you're doing is looking like a fucking idiot, because nobody is holding you here.
