There is another major patch coming this month so I would wait for that one and then you can play it.
Nah, you'll have finished 40k to play by then.
Maybe now he finally willl be able to be objective about this mess of a game, and stop spreading corporate bullshit.
Here's hoping for some dirty laundry. Who knows, maybe we'll get some quality entertainment out of this yet!
Where did you get the idea it failed?! They are still alive and making big patches almost every month and all their DLCs are still planned. Now if once it releases on Steam and still gets bashed by people and then has low sales there, then one can talk about failing.
It is not not much different than 1000s of early access games on Steam, except this one did its early access on Epic and got paid in advance.
True, but Kingmaker had the feeling of a flawed gem from the start, it had soul. With these devs I have the feeling that they don't have a clue what they are doing, and their game feels like a bland xcom clone. Their combat engine is better, but everything else is a lot worse and I don't see it improving. The entire research system is fundamentally flawed, and there is no real sense of progression. I also don't give a shit about the lore. The only I hope I have for this is a total conversion mod reusing their combat engine.
That is what I am hoping for too, some Longwar type total conversion. To me after they released the new art, and game direction I sort of felt like that was where the best result would happen if it were to happen. Its still a possibility, because there will be a lot for somebody to work with and the possibility make something really amazing.
it's always a tragedy when a game fails. every time it happens we miss a unique, unrepeatable chance. we are the first to lose. more often than not, we are the only one to lose, because the big money has already been earned by the undeserving.
