    Thank you very mu...wait a minute, this isn't a business card. This is just a signed picture of you, naked, with an address and phone number?

    I'm flexible.
  3. You mean games journalism?
    That shitfest full of clickbait and free game keys?
    I wonder why they still exist...

  4. Yay...my bad...but as said, it wont happen again with this company, and no matter what they touch, my buddys and me will remember everyone what they did.

    Expect us.

    No company is a good company. If you think that you haven't learnt anything from this. And you've only seen what they allowed you to see, much different to this, much more transparent and open development cycle. But somehow bE are the baddies here.

    Vermin tide is barely a full game now. It's like 12 levels. Many, many players have problems with the fps and optimisation. It's no better than EC. In fact for me it's worse.
    Combat was repetitive and boring, progression came down to grinding for better weapons by playing the same levels over and over and over again.
    It's an l4d clone. It's almost the same game reskinned. Tank? Check. Smoker? Check. Jockey? Check. Hunter? Check. 4 heroes? Check.
    It's more expensive than l4d.

    Yeah right, 'the same few individuals' managed to bring down the reviews to mixed, they must be very influential :D.

    And remember that you can write the review only once.

    Because bE kept reducing the game down to a lobby shooter that barely functions.

    Its a complete game, its had dlc added to it.
    It isn't a large game simply because it isn't. l4d isn't that big of a game either.
    Optimization is fine.

    Thats subjective, to me the combat was the best part, in fact I dont know anyone other than you who thinks it was bad.
    The same with Diablo, EC, any MMO, pretty much most games.
    Yes, they definitely said "Yo we're definitely making legit 100% brand new original idea 100% 420blaze"
    No shit its like l4d, that was the point, its taking that idea and expanding it, making it far better. Just like Overwatch from TF2 or R6:Siege from CS:GO.
    Is Inqusitior:Matyr now a bad game because its an APRG just like other ARPGs?

    L4D is currently $20, at launch it was more than that.
    Vermintide was $30 on launch, or $40 with extra stuff.

    No, nobody was talkin or discussing games journalism.

    Maybe because you individuals are propagating lies and mistruths such as; p2w for example? A novice will read a review from someone with thousands of hours put into a game, see p2w and take it as a truth. They might feel pissed off and write a review that consists of pretty much this - "pay 2 win" hours in game? 2. Not that we've seen many of this....wait a minute. That's like 25% of the negative reviews?
  9. "Why do you think review sites for *almost everything you can buy, ever* exist if reviews mean nothing to customers? Are you for real?"
    Journalist sites.

    I'm mixed on the P2W thing and I'm against anyone who says "da lies", they weren't lies, just promises that they decided to push make and ended up giving us a terribly disappointing game.

    There are ridiculous reviews on both sides, but looking past them you still see that majority of people dislike the game. And for good reasons.


    Whether its P2W or otherwise, you pay for items with stats that differ from the weapon they're based on, thats a bad thing whether balanced or not and many people can consider that P2W, I have no problem with people who think thats what it is, nor do I have a problem with people who think it isn't.

    Optimisation was awful. I'm not the only one to think this.

    The combat was boring. I'm not the only one to think this.

    There's a big, BIG difference from being 'similar' to something and being exactly the same. Apart from a reskin they are identical. Well apart from a reskin, the weaker mechanics, worse level design and being very clunky in places they are identical. So it didn't expand anything or make it far better, it made it worse.
