I'd really love to join such an initiative, I even got many years worth of broadcast experience, but English is not my native language so that'd be too much of a hindrance. :(

Yesss! A turn based strategy game! We really, really need more strategy games. I think we can still take ten more this month, just to have something to do while waiting for the the ten tbs games coming next month!

:-P

Quoting: GuestSteam's system is pretty good by allowing voting on reviews.

The ones throwing thumbs around are just as random as the quality - or validity - of the reviews themselves.
Sorry guys but don't get fooled. Do not trust user reviews.

In addition to the random paid reviews who are bad enough as it is, far worse is the fact that some just have hardly any references for the game they play at all - they don't know how much better the alternatives are cause they've not played'em, have no perspective nor the ability to weight components - and typically don't mind writing and have a reasonably convincing way of expressing themselves, making us believe they actually know what they talk about. But the wider perspective is completely missing behind the disguise.

Thumbs are given on a wide range of reasons, including whether or not they agree with the conclusion of the review. Who may be wrong. Or because they think the text was funny. Or their buddy wrote it. Or downvote cause it was too long. Or... The average thumb-givers are just as clueless, just as random.

And of course you do find reasonable reviews in there. But it's like sorting through garbage to find food.

Do not trust user "reviews".

I may sound like a broken record now, but: Do not trust user "reviews". Do. Not. Trust. User. "Reviews".

If it's not pay to win, can't they just release a series of mini-DLCs - like they do in Saints Row - instead? Just to have a purchase nagging inside the game - no matter how discrete (let's face it, they're not gonna hide it too well) - is just so... Cheap. And breaks immersion.

What's wrong with the mini-DLCs? If it's fully optional anyway?

If it can be played offline, how can it then possibly be a mmo? Unless that term has been redefined lately?

Quoting: AnxiousInfusionI wonder if we'll ever reach parity or even surpass Mac. Heh that will be the day.

Oh, we must get past Mac - and I believe we will, eventually. But reaching the Mac share is a major milestone.

There exist no words in any known language that clearly enough express how I am so totally not going to play that game.


.. I'll still buy it, though.
