This genuinely surprises me. After all the negative press, it still seemed to do well with gamers. I thought it may have actually been okay.
Have you seen the steam stats? Very few people played this game.
Yeah, I just remember reading steam reviews a few days after release and they were largely very positive. I was surprised.
I’m not trying to sell anyone on the game, I don’t own it, never played it, despise games as a live service.
I just remember all the negative reviews then seeing it seem to land fairly well with players who bought in. Could have been the investment principle and nothing else.
That's also because they deleted thousands of negative reviews. I think the numbers was like 7,400? 7.5? There's a review talking about it.
