I feel quite vindicated that pretty much every single criticism I've made of the game over the past three years has proven to be correct, based entirely on what even the fans of the game have been saying here and elsewhere. What is surprising, however, is the extent to which people are still willing to insist it is "the greatest game ever" or even simply that it is "an awesome game." And here I'm not even speaking of fans of the game in this forum. That most of the people here would be die-hard fans of all things Larian is not in the least bit surprising or unexpected. I'm speaking of all the pro reviewers and gaming journalists, who are supposed to be objective and honest and fair in what they write about games, and not gushing cheerleaders.
Yea, I have to agree with fylimar here. I think you're focusing a bit much on being vindicated about your dislike of what the game is over everything else. You don't have to like the game, and true enough, there are many things about the game I personally don't like, but it seems lately all of your posts have shifted from wanting to know 'x' and 'y' about certain systems, and if people think you would enjoy something, to just straight up negative comments that are summed up as "Ha, i knew it." and "Finally people are agreeing with me on hating this game". I've supported your criticisms of the game Kanisatha, you know that, but I think maybe you're letting your frustrations take over a bit much here.
There isn't some conspiracy to like the game by "pro reviewers and gaming journalists". I can confirm that because I DO enjoy the game overall. It held my attention for over 100 hours within a week or so, which is extremely rare for me. No, it's not remotely perfect, but it was a great experience overall.
I don't say this to attack you, I like you, I've enjoyed your comments that keep discussion balanced, they've helped me to remember to have a balanced view of things, and not get caught up in the hype too much.
