I always try to keep my reviews constructive for small devs. So far, they've always appreciated the detailed feedback. I've had a few where I completely changed my reviews after they fixed my complaints and let me know about the update.
after they fixed my complaints and let me know about the update
Patch note for release 0.7.34
- Allow junk loot to be droppable
- Addressed feedback from user Dettweiler42 "This shit game sucks ass!!" to suck 80% less ass
- Removed placeholder mob mechanic when in certain situations
Reminds me of when someone left a leaf-blowing simulator a review "can't sex the leaves" and it caused the dev to make a sex update to a leaf blowing simulator
Outrageous! It's terrible what people can force devs to do. I would like to apologize for my fellow human's behavior personally; can you give me the name of the game and/or a download link? Or at least some screenshots, so I can, uh, be further outraged.
Dose it actually add a new way to blow the leafs?
For a laugh, review games on Google Play. The asinine responses you get...
The most ridiculous one was for a pay-to-win bullethell game WITH NO BULLETS. You literally just effortlessly shot at enemies with virtually no way to die. But you could pay stupid sums of money for a better ship which killed enemies faster.
The dev's response to my review calling their game overpriced and boring? "Join the discord so you can get tips from top players"
Well we need an update.... Did you join? Did you get any good tips?????
The tip is: Buy the bigger ship.
time spent in game when making a review: 600 hours.
I hate this game.
time spent in game after the review was written: 1400 hours.
I too have played MMOs.
I was thinking more in line with Paradox games, but your version works too.
Every MMO on steam is at mixed with negative reviews from 1000 hour players lol. Stop doing this to yourselves!
I think it's more they love the game, but hate a specific thing that happens in an update, like their favourite character/ability gets rightfully nerfed, so they throw a tantrum by giving negative review.
i got in a fight with a small-time dev when they implemented marriages in a rogue like and allowed child marriages but not gay or interracial marriages
long story short the community exploded and he went full nazi on twitter and now the reviews are actually more positive but from 4chan weirdos calling child marriages based
What game was that!? Why does a roguelike even have marriage lmao
steam discussions moment
At this point it's "unmoderated comments section" moment. Pretty much all public spaces are infested with this stuff now.
REACTION IMAGE FEATURING HEAVY FROM TEAM FORTRESS 2 DOING A STEP-BY-STEP TUTORIAL ABOUT OPENING UP REDDIT AND DOING A DARK FACE
Not a great article. While it was mostly objective about the situation, it did not quote anyone but the developer, giving him complete control over the narrative, and links to many other articles about “rejecting wokeism”.
Yes. That dev is changing the WORLD by fighting against all the woke jealous stupid libs who think you shouldn't be able to marry a child.
Smh. I'm so sick of these straight white dude Nazis acting like they are fighting thousands of years of oppression.
This was in 2016. But there was a indie game from a small dev in a European country that allowed backers to name NPCs, and there were some racist names. I called that out in my review, and the Dev went, "It's not racist here in my country."
That led to a back and forth on the Steam forum which I got banned. Then I shared it on Reddit, but was stupid to use the same steam name as my twitter name and got a lot of toxic shit.
I changed my steam name and tossed my twitter account, so no idea what happened, nor do I remember the game.
Not sure if this is Crusader Kings or not
As of CK3, same sex marriages are allowed with a game setting, and I know same sex affairs were a thing in CK2. Enabling same sex marriages will disable achievements and at first I thought it was about historical accuracy, but it's actually because it trivializes inheritance management.
No same sex marriages because of historical accuracy, but of course a bear married to a horse could rule the Holy Roman Empire.
You had to both have silly mode turned on and pretty aggressively exploit some coding oversights to make that happen, though.
3000 hours played
Game is shit! Thumbs down 👇
Me: "???"
Its called war thunder
To be fair it could also be league of legends or destiny 2
Nice profile picture!
Haha thank you!
I will say that games aren't static any more so there are legitimate reasons why this might occur. For instance, I had over 100 hours in a game and then the devs decided they liked money more than their player base so they retroactively added a bunch of micro-transactions to the game. The game had been fully released at this point and they just updated it to milk more money out of their player base. Bad updates can ruin the experience in what had once been a good game.
I think some people keep playing the same game long beyond the point where it stops being fun.
I had a dev respond to me 5+ years after a review saying they had fixed the problems I mentioned. Now I have to download the game and play it again or I have no balls. God damn devs holding us accountable.
I got so mad playing your video game. 30 hours of my life
I left a negative review on a "AAA" game and the dev responded to it by gas lighting me that I didn't play it right.
TL;DR starfield sucks
Lol I was just going to bring that up
Steam reviews are very important, even big studios like bethesda reply to negative reviews.
Nice profile picture!
I don't get it
The joke is that people (including the main character/OP) feel comfortable criticizing others when those others don't know about the criticism, but as soon as they do, the anti-confrontational/cowardly/etc. part of them immediately regrets being critical.
Thank you!
This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.
