I went and read a good chunk of negative steam reviews for it. And yeah, the vast majority of the negative ones are about mechanics, or performance, and seem perfectly legitimate. A lot that basically even say, “I don’t recommend now but seems like it will be good once they cook for a bit.”

I did see a couple made super recently that were basically negative reviewing because of this dude’s statements, but not many.
And funny how the only reviews I could imagine being considered review bomb-y seem to only have happened because of his whining about being review bombed.

Mostly it looks like the game’s recent “The Breach” update was legitimately poorly received by the playerbase, the studio head decided, “No, it’s the children who are wrong.”

As far as I can tell, the subtitle on the tv says “regarding magical shit”. Seems apt.

While it probably was in that ballpark cuz he’s an idiot, that transcript image that made the rounds a bit ago was a forgery, so it’s unknown what his gpa was. Plenty of provable real stuff that shows him to be a moron, however.

Yes, 2 had a lot of re-used locations. Some of them did make sense, as the story was almost entirely set within a single city, so certain locations are bound to pop up multiple times, especially as the game takes place over a decade or so.

But the real reason, 2 was developed and rushed out the door in like a year or something? It was a ridiculously short amount of time to develop a sequel to a game as big as DA:O. Unsurprisingly, this led to a LOT of re used assets and locations.

But though it obviously had failings, I, like some others, would probably put DA2 as the high point for the series telling really character driven stories with the most compelling cast of characters.

I liked Perrin a lot…until Faile showed up in the first place.

But I can’t argue your statement.

Rust and ruin, I knew someone would bring up this crem.

I love Sanderson, he is my favorite fantasy author, and you are correct about his marvelous job finishing WoT, but he is just not the right fit tonally for ASOIAF. He doesn’t even write swear words, and GRRM’s books are fairly liberal with the fucks and the cunts. I would however be in favor of Joe Abercrombie or someone with a bit of a darker bent to their writing taking over if needed.
