  I was going to do that originally but now I’m never playing it.

    I’m not going to punish the entire development team just because he’s a tool.

      They got paid already and most of them will be laid off or moved to different projects by the time the games is $20.

      I’m enjoying the game. And yeah, a lot of cool folk work there. Sure a few suck, but there are a lot of neat humans that poured their heart into this game.

      I also haven’t had a single issue on a two year old mid-tier laptop so i can’t empathize with the fuss over performance. I’m sure there are older machines out there that wont run it at 1000FPS or whatever.

      At the end of the day, it’s a game. Calm tf down and play something else rather than raise your blood pressure over something so relatively trivial.

      Deep breath people. It’s a game. Support it or don’t. Edginess not required for this decision.

      It’s not that he’s a tool it’s at the game it has poor performance. And being a tool is just a guarantee that issue will never be fixed.

      So in a way I kind of do blame the team, they must have done testing they know what the performance is like.

  You should get it for free elsewhere. Don’t give this asshole your money.

      And Empress is gone, though they were pretty toxic so that’s no big loss for me.

    That’s an option, but there were a lot of people involved in making the game. I’m not a fan of collective punishment. They most probably did their best, he’s just a shit spokesperson.
