Well, I'll add one more thing I guess. While the first game certainly wasn't a technical marvel, (you could feel the crust on it while playing,) it did at least run well enough that it could be enjoyed without the experience being kneecapped. For small games like these, I think that's a decent benchmark. As Inept Monkey said, it's at least better than most other action games. (It's been a bit, so I don't remember it well enough to list a bunch of specific issues. Though I seem to recall the game occasionally suffering from some slowdown when a wave first loaded in.)It's not THAT bad of a comparison. It's exaggerated, yes. But his point still stand that there's no point complaining once the deed is done. The deed is the game being out on steam. Are you purposely ignoring the fact that once the game is out that it's too late to complain? When these games are done they move to the next game. Do you really think they're not gonna jump on their next project ASCOT: demon's waltz immediately after everything that was said?
If the devs promise that this game will have more than just guro but keeps showing JUST the guro with every updates and nothing else. Then you'd be within your rights to be worried. How hard is that to understand? It's not about complaining about *missing features*. It's about people being worried about being misled. A freaking random translator on this game had to go on this forum to reassure us that this game isn't just torture porn because the devs can't do it themselves.
Also your point about people complaining about the ALPHA version being a mess? Did you not play the first game? It runs like crap. So people aren't crazy for being kinda critical about it. Especially with how the previous game was handled.
But the second one runs like total crap at the moment, yadda yadda yadda. Not an issue that fixes itself, and the first game doesn't exactly inspire great confidence that they'll be doing so. Could go either way, maybe they do, hopefully they do, yadda yadda yadda. Certainly doesn't hurt to bring it up. And now I'll leave it.
