If you're that mad just quit and don't give them money anymore. No, but paying them $30 bucks to be a beta tester is cool? LOL. That's literally the definition of Early Access. If you don't understand what you're buying into then maybe you shouldn't. I think your just very wide of the point. But to go as wide in the other direction I guess your right that EA shouldnt be a thing period as far to many studios dont deliver and effectively amount to a scam in some instances Toss a Chaos to your Leader OH Red Maps a Plenty oh Red Maps a Plenty OHHH Toss a Chaos to your Leader	Posted by lunaticwoda#2453 on Dec 12, 2024, 7:09:39 PM Quote this Post

That point is or should be clear. The game has been out a week, it looks pretty fleshed out to me, developer is communicative and clearly working on patches and balancing. I can't see how they're not delivering right now, As to the future, well we'll see. Bit to early to whip out the crystal ball. Not bad for $30 I reckon.

It isnt a review bomb if the game just isnt good. May 15th 2012 - The day the king of ARPGs died. January 23rd 2013 - A new king takes the throne.	Posted by bluejays90#2103 on Dec 12, 2024, 7:22:53 PM Quote this Post
Some people just choose not to understand what early access means and what it is for. There is no point in arguing with them. Since they already made up their mind and will never understand or accept what early access is.	Posted by Avaricta#4758 on Dec 12, 2024, 7:27:49 PM Quote this Post

If you're that mad just quit and don't give them money anymore. Imagine using "effeminate behavior" as a legitimate putdown. Like, unironically. Review bombs are a specific niche subset of reviews, and reviews that are based on currently available content do not fall within that niche. The fact that the game is early access is neither here nor there; you can alter your review if you think it's relevant, but that is no more "correct" than someone who doesn't. Right now, the game isn't ready to charge money for, and they charged money for it. No amount of mental gymnastics gets passed that point. I shit all over D4 day and and day out for being subpar, not fit for purpose, and all the rest, and that is all true. Neither is PoE2. It shouldn't be publically available.

"Shouldn't be publically available" lol bit of a stretch isn't it? The very definition of EA, is that player pays to be a tester, that's literally how it works, and everywhere players are complaining about it like the concept happened yesterday.

I'm having fun. Do I give a review saying that this game "Is The Bomb"?	Posted by Grentain#1661 on Dec 12, 2024, 8:27:22 PM Quote this Post
Giving $30 to GGG to play Early Access is, with no exaggeration, the equivalent of supporting a terrorist regime. Now if you would excuse me a customer just pulled up and I need to pump his gas	Posted by Decrepus#0389 on Dec 12, 2024, 8:37:14 PM Quote this Post

Now if you would excuse me a customer just pulled up and I need to pump his gas This reminded me of the movie Billy Madison. " At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul. Edit: English is not my first language, so there may be some sort of joke behind it that flies over my head. In that case, I am sorry.
