Take Two killing another indie franchise
(hexbear.net)
Supposedly Take Two forced Gearbox to rush the DLC under threat of funding cuts.
I don't think I can list all of the bugs (because the list is 3x longer than the patch notes), the game is essentially unplayable for most people- including Russians who got rug pulled on the day of release by having the entire game region locked without warning. ~~Regional pricing is also marking up the DLC as more expensive than the game itself.~~ Regional pricing was very quickly fixed.
Now the game is getting review bombed and lots of people are just refunding &/or down patching since the game is broken even without buying the DLC.
Kinda bummed about this. Even the original coder for the game came out and admitted they butchered it.
Hard agree on the soundtrack, imo the SotS music is probably Chris' best work on the franchise so far and he brought in a couple collaborators who elevate it further. I Should Build the Man a Statue is a highlight, esp once the the riff starts popping off around 2:16
SotV is probably my personal favorite, tied with the Risk of Rain Returns soundtrack. I would consider SotS and the RoR2 base soundtrack my next favorite.
