I mean... We're all going to play it regardless, right? I am at least. He makes good games. You just have to take his claims with a good, healthy amount of salt.
Why buy from a liar when 🏴☠️ exists?
I don't ore order games and very very rarely purchase before reviews come out. Even then I always set a timer to stop before 2 hours to see if I should refund on Steam.
So, no, not really. It's not a hard no, but it's certainly not a definite yes.
Maybe that's why I feel the way I do about it. I don't pre order games either and I pretty rarely buy games within the first maybe like 6 months of release. So I guess I've never been let down by the hype I'm the same way that plays the game on day one. So if I'm anticipating it and it's a let down but I'm still interested, I'm not paying full price. I'll get that shit during a sale. So I'm going to play it, I might just be less financially invested.
Haven't played anything of his that has been announced or released after 2012. I still need to give Black and White a try, anyday now.
Dungeon Keeper with KeeperFX is definitely worth it too.
The game Dungeons 3 was almost really good but just felt grindy. Evil Genius 2 was awful and I'm still sad about it.
Gamers showing an ounce of self-control challenge: impossible
I don't think I've played a single one of his games and I'm guessing I'm probably not going to start now :p
What was the last good game he made? I still have an abandoned "Godus" in my steam account, that played like a stupid Facebook game. To progress, you had to click the "mana" bubbles that would appear over your people's houses every minute or so. This pointless action was your currency to do anything in the game, so you would just sit, wait for bubbles and click until you have enough points to build something.
