Ok? It was a temporary voice file that the devs forgot to remove or replace. And people immediately screamed that Blizzard is trying to sneak AI into the game.
I’ve been playing for about two months now, after a multi-year break from the game. Just casual, not competitive (although Stadium is classified as competitive). It’s great.
Two bad things for me. Flex Queue means Tank, which sucks, because I’d like to play all roles, but now have to just queue DPS/Heal. Also, the matchmaker is shit, so most games are relatively one-sided (Quick Play and Stadium).
Never really agreed with the Metroidvania label, same with Skul: The Hero Slayer. You unlock different biomes (and side rooms), but the items to do so are more like keys. Just my thoughts on that.
BTW, the game can’t be bought in Germany for some reason, but you can activate third-party keys with no problem. No VPN needed.
I bought it on Nuuvem years ago and everything worked. Dunno if region-locked keys are sold, but the store should tell you if it’s only Russian, Japanese or whatever.
BG3 and Cyberpunk have boobs and were a success, which would support that statement. But Wukong, Palword, and Monster Hunter Wilds were even more successful (according to concurrent Steam players), which means animals are the true secret to success.
The only thing I know is that access to the specific purchase might get blocked, if there’s a payment issue. Not Steam directly, but a friend of mine once bought Diablo 3 for WoW gold on Battle.net, something happened after a while, and he lost access to the game, dunno if the other side refunded the game or whatever. All the other games still worked, but he’d have to buy D3 again to play it. I would be surprised if Steam blocks the whole account.
If they mean you buy a game, then there’s a problem with payment, but they should still let you download and play, that’s dumb.
The part about Steam Support being extremely slow is also old news. I think that’s been a lot better for years now. I don’t know if it was around the time they were forced to implement refunds, but I think that’s all outsourced now, and you don’t have to hope a Valve dev checks the support mailbox anymore.
You should do what you think is best, since you’re making these threads.
I remember back when OpenCritic launched, the dev made a Reddit post to gauge interest. MetaCritic used some weird formula to weight specific outlets of their choosing higher, and apparently people didn’t like that. OpenCritic was supposed to “fix” that. I never really followed that stuff, so I don’t know if that’s still the case, if MetaCritic changed or whatever.
I don’t care one way or another, and don’t really use these threads or even most of the reviews to decide if I buy a game or not. Looking them over, and maybe see some people freak out because of “too much water” is entertaining though.
