What a stubborn idiot.

[Ownederd]

i don't know what to think of this. this game is very, very polarized from my understanding

So what, have Hammerpoint actually made it playable and added in the features they said would be available the first time it was made available on Steam?

There are games that would never even have a chance at getting Greenlit that are leagues better than this hunk of shit.

Also most of the stuff that DOES get greenlit is a hunk of shit when the stuff that doesn't deserve to.

[Kuro.]

So all they did was change the description on the store page, but not address any of the mountain of issues the game has.

Steam should just refund everyone who bought the game and remove it from Steam permanently this time. Hammerpoint knowingly committed fraud by misrepresenting their product, and they should be held accountable for it, especially since it's obvious they will never fix their game.

There will still be kiddies who will prefer this and flock to it, which will be good for DZS.

You know it wouldn't be so bad if he actually took some time to fix the game up. There's just no way this unfinished mess can be much better in that time frame.

In my opinion they should've kept it off of Steam, I have no idea how those cunts managed to convince Valve to put the game back up for sale.

I saved a friend of mine, who hadn't heard the controversy and wanted desperately for me to buy the game for him, from buying said game.

I feel like I saved him from supporting the current Hitler of the gaming industry.

You've done a good deed.

[Bragdras]

Didn't even bother to change the fake-ass screenshots.

Damn $15? What are they smoking.

In truth if it was like a $5 bargain bin game or something I'd consider giving it a whirl.

Here's what I don't get: Gabe was quoted in saying that they wanted to reduce the Steam influence over games, saying that Greenlight isn't letting things in fast enough.

Steam has a reputation of providing quality games with reasonable expectations of quality. If they go off and let any old person just add a game to Steam, or if they reduce the process to allow for more content in, they run the risk of hurting their own brand. Steam pulled The War Z because it was falsely advertised and people were unhappy as a whole - imagine that happening more and more frequently as games get added with very little quality.
