I wonder how many people were layed off multiple times?

Your studio closes, you go to another studio which gets merged in with another. That kind of thing?

This is in line with what I’m seeing locally. Weird they aren’t doing a fire sale like Sam’s Club:

“Of the 1,431 games released last year that garnered more than 500 reviews — an indication that they were played by at least a few thousand people — more than 260 were rated positively by 90% or more of the players. More than 800 scored 80% or better.”

Problem - You can’t trust Steam reviews. Steam users will give top ratings to “Click the Duck”.

From what I hear from people actually able to play the game, it’s better than 3.

Something like:

2 > 4 > 1 > 3 > Pre-Sequel

DF is who I’m waiting on, but from what I’m hearing, they didn’t send reviewer codes so it’s all delayed and that’s never a good sign.

How is it on console though? Better on PS5 or Xbox?
