    Honestly I never got raped but I imagine in this kind of situation I wouldn`t think if it is with or without condom. Rape is rape.
    Probably I will never participate in any EA. The idea is great... supporting game you want to play with your time and cash. But it is like with every good ideas... Idea > reality.
    Too many broken promisses and shady decissions. Giving cash for promisses is making too many lazy unskilled developers even more greedy.

  2. Steam reviews are a cesspit of stupidity.

    Unless it's overwhelmingly negative it's mostly just dicks with axes to grind because their sense of entitlement hasn't been personally tailored to.

    There are legit reviews, but by the Emperor they are in a minority.

    I could agree with this if overal reviews are showing what the game is. I gave it 6.5/10... steam reviews are 66% positives.
    To be honest I am expecting them go down even futher... to about 60%.

  4. In most games yes...here, it fits perfect. Shitty game -> shitty reviews.

    Gime the game I got promissed when I gave my $ or a refund...that would be fair.

    You could equally argue that any positive reviews are mostly by dicks who will accept mediocrity in all they do.

    You certainly could, then you read some of the negative reviews and compare them to the positive and we see that there is (generally of course) a distinct difference in tone, effort, and information presented.
  7. Certainly true, which is why overall I find Steam reviews terrible. Anyone, including those who would be entertained by paint drying to those who are personally offended by the very existence of a product can post a review counted towards a total.

    You really have to sift through them to find anything worthwhile.

    Not to mention you don't really get tides of people trying to buff up mediocrity, but you do get rabid morons who will "neg bomb" (I think is the term) something they personally disagree with, in some sort of bizarre effort to force people away from a game. Look at Warhammer Total for example, a lot of people hated the cost of the Beastmen DLC and took to the base game review to lambast the company and the games score dived...just because one DLC was more expensive than they liked. The internet is a petty beast.

  8. But the main point is most people are driven off by the collective ratings. So Mixed (especially with that new kids shit color) means RIP interest

    And why has there been a sudden influx of negative reviews? Well it's not like there has been a total hate campaign regarding this title from those that own the game (and those that don't) perpetrating lies such as; 'p2w', 'not what we paid for' and 'EC is made by undead nazi rapists' oh wait....

    The first comments on steam are mostly people who don't like the game. People who enjoy will comment later imo.
