monkeydelarge: 8. Early Access games being shoved in your face(if you use Steam).

Matrilwood: This is an issue with Steam itself and not the games. Steam handles Early Access games poorly and lumps them in with all the other games which annoys people when they're not even looking for early access games. To say that games being released early so that people can play test it, find bugs/balance issues and overall make the end product better is a bad thing in of itself is freaking insane.

On that note, why do games ALWAYS have a buggy release now days? Some games are completely unplayable when they first come out!
Greater level of complexity and it's possible to deliver patches immediately instead of printing a CD or floppy discs of an improved version of the game :)

Klumpen0815: Reminds me of "The Fall - Reloaded", "Sacred - Reloaded", etc... where this actually happened.
The Fall is still buggy (still worth the play) and the addon of Sacred runs like shit.

The worst example of buggy games may be "Ultima - Ascension" and "Gothic 1", but at least the support for Gothic 1 was ongoing until most bugs were entirely gone (took some years though), while Ultima... well you know the story.
I'd really wish for a playable remake of Ultima - Ascension. Was anyone ever able to finish this game?
One of our testers, Krash, finished the game :)

edit: our version of it, anyways :)

Klumpen0815: Interesting. Has GoG patched the game or were there enough community patches out there by now?
I am tempted to try it again, because it's a really good game as long as you won't get stuck because of some bug.
We used nGlide, the latest version of the unofficial patch, and some of our own fixes :)
