  I think I got what I was expecting at launch. I also knew the only reason it wasn’t a $20-$30 game was the hype, which is what it was worth at launch. I think there was some misleading, like seeing other players was supposed to be possible and wasn’t until a much later update. But it was mainly the hype blew expectations out of proportion.

    I think this is overlooking quite a lot of direct lies that they told.

    This wasn’t as simple as “they said it would happen one day”. They were saying repeatedly how it would be at launch, and those blatant lies tainted this game permanently for a lot of us.

    Even now after it’s alleged to be a lot better, I can’t bring myself to even reinstall the game. Half because I’m still angry it happened to begin with, and half from embarrassment of feeling scammed

    I created a Dumpster Fire category in my steam library for this game, and it’ll likely stay there forever
