Default Re: What do you think of the game?

I am so very sorry that you have chosen to flippantly dismiss my observations (and those of others) as "pissing and moaning."

I kind of thought this forum was one where we respected each others' opinions, agreed to disagree and left it at that.
And such is your right. I was not referring to one particular person or issue; merely trying to quell some of the negativity around here. Personally, I think we should be glad that somebody still thinks there's a market for ultra-complex games that could never possibly be bug-free on the first go-round.

It just bugs me that *some* people (not you) come off on this and other forums as whiny, self-indulgent brats. Yes, the game has problems. Yes, it probably shouldn't have been released in this condition. All I'm saying is look at the design underneath - scrape the barnacles and rough edges away and I believe there's quite a game just waiting to come out beneath the surface. But I feel too many people want to do a point-by-point comparison to SE4 and judge the game as an 'evolution' rather than a 'new game experience.' On those merits, yes, the game will probably disappoint. But taken as a game by itself, with no history, and what it tries to accomplish, and the lack of boundaries it refuses to set on a player's strategies and ideas, it is a work of art, in my opinion.

And that's the whole point: IN MY OPINION.
