@ixokai said in Star Wars: Insurgency:
Please note that no one affiliated with this game said you bashed the game nor have any of us taken the criticism as bashing: nor did we turn aside criticism.
I know, that wasn't really directed at you. You seem sporting about the discussion, and probably like reasonable people staffwise (detractors should take note that even in one of my early posts, I clarify that I think in the majority of cases, even staff making bad decisions are doing it for what they feel are good reasons).
@WTFE
Ok? None of this is emotional. I'm not saying that I'm some perfect logicbot that never rants and flames (I did it plenty about games I actually played on and had valid, personal beefs with, like Firan) but the idea that I'm raging about a game I haven't tried is a little far-fetched.
If I'm being an asshole, well, definitions vary there. Maybe I cling to the WORA posting norm where I don't feel the need to hold off from saying 'X is stupid' if I think X is stupid, and maybe that makes me some % of an asshole. I'll deal.
@Apu
I'm not writing the game off as a failure, I'm writing off the policy as being beneficial to the game because I've never seen the policy be beneficial to any game (in this genre context). SW games have succeeded, for some amount of time, with FCs, but my feeling is that's a case of in spite of, rather than because of.
