I miss when dumpster fires used to burn out after a day or so. Devs need to learn when to shut the fuck up and walk away. Fleece some more rubes in another 5 years or so.
I love it when people try to revise history. /s
This game got hype on top of hype the likes of which I don’t remember greater. Everyone was talking about it. I was also curious even though I’m pretty much over all things zombies.
I work from home and leave my favorite streamer in the background when I’m not in the mood for music. Listening to their excitement turn to confusion to utter disappointment was almost agony.
This dillhole of a human being makes it sound like the hate campaign was before the game ever had a chance. Stop fucking lying. The hate came after the game turned out to be dog diarrhea.
This game looked like a scam before release. The developers copied art style and their trailer scenes from other games, and never shown gameplay videos. In the trailers it looked like AAA, but was developed by a studio without required experience. There were doubts the game existed at all. Well, it existed, but was far from what trailers shown.
I think it didn’t actually exist, what we have been shown is something that they quickly cooked up to avoid lawsuits
I think this 100%
I remember like a week after the first trailer dropped some YouTube dude made a video saying it was sus and wondered if it was real. I can’t remember their arguments, as of was a while ago, but they were convincing.
Also, for how long it was supposedly in development, what they released doesn’t even make sense… Like it kind of looks like a hobbiest could make that on their own pretty quickly (assuming they used free/bought assets)
I don’t remember the last time I saw actual gameplay in a trailer.
You have 800ms snippets of a character walking or shooting in between cinematics, but you gotta be attentive otherwise you’ll miss it
Watch any Path of exile 2 trailer, it’s all gameplay, in depth, with devs explaining what’s going on and the plans are.
really? go watch a gameplay trailer then. it’s a whole category that almost every game releases.
Stop blaming the players for bad games
Players hated it, so… true?
They bought a bunch of assets that didn’t work well together, made a poor attempt to make them work together, and released a buggy half-finished game…oh and the hame was completely different from what they said they were working on.
I did like the gameplay loop, however.
I mean… That’s their fault for making such a terribly hate-able game.
Yeah same thing happened to the Ford Pinto. People just hated on it for literally no reason. Not that it was a terrible vehicle that would kill you on a rear end impact via instant combustion. Hate campaign!
If a car rear-ended me, I’m not sure it matters what I happen to be playing at the time. 🤔
They hated it because it fucking sucked, dude. Just one look at the final product and you can tell you how fucked up it is. You don’t even need to play it to see it sucks; that’s how bad it fucking sucked.
Big Amy’s Baking Company vibes.
From what I saw, the game died because:
- tutorial was way too long and there was no easy way to find objectives
- hostile locations were mostly barren
- enemies were super easy to cheese
All things the devs could have gone back and fixed, but they decided to abandon the game.
Would anyone mind posting their statement? For some reason the writer of the article didn’t include it anywhere, just a link to shitter, which I don’t use
Lol “anonymous people.”
Plenty of reviewers whose face and name are in the lime light also said a lot of the same shit about it.
But of course the grifters are gonna try and grift the fact they were grifting once they’re caught and called out for being grifters.
