Don't tell me what to do, and I won't tell you where to go
On those mostly negative reviews on steam
- Thread starter BluStar
- Start date
Don't play Odyssey? Don't preorder games? Wait until Odyssey improves? Provide constructive criticism?
It's amazing what the pandemic did to expand the gaming community.
One could even argue that the decline now is because of vaccines, decline in COVID numbers and people are going outside again, not related to the problems with Odyssey release.
BTW, I think people who are complaining about the state of the game (generally) don't hate it. They want FDev to work on it and fix the problems. Otherwise, they'd just move on.
I love the game. I hate the state it's at.
Don't tell me to not tell you. Or something.
basically. I'd love to play the game more.
Update 5 made it unplayably stuttery and laggy for me. Therefore, playing and enjoying the game literally isn't an option. I can't enjoy anything at 5 FPS.
The problem is that with the introduction of Odyssey, things broke in Horizons as well. Unfortunately, this advice just doesn't work.
There's a lot of it. There's very few acknowledgement from FDev to those. So, I understand when people get upset with the lack of dialogue and just go full on rant.
I don't have a problem with constructive criticism (and sometimes I even understand emotional criticism). Some people enjoy it when the game fails though, they are dreaming of doom since 7 years. They are the people who should just move on in my opinion.
There did you what see I.
True, that's not related to Odyssey though, FDEV breaks their game with every update. It's a reason to be upset, but not to hate the game. If you hate the game, please just leave.
Sure, not related to what I said though.
Horizons?
If they're anything like me, they're gone.
I lost my love for The Division 2. I just quit cold turkey. Left forums, reddit, Discords untouched. No goodbye posts, nothing.
I think I actually dropped by /r/thedivision a couple of times to look at the state of the game, but that was it.
Incidentally, the game sat on my hard drive for about a year until I actually needed the space and uninstalled it.
Lastly, this is a forum. There will be all kinds of players here discussing things. It's a forum.
If everyone was circlejerking how good the game is, it would be as boring as it gets.
Even in golden times, people come to the forums to ask for small QoL changes, or demand long standings bugs to be fixed.
If you currently see more negative posts here, it's a reflection of the state of the game.
Just like Steam player numbers and negative reviews (but again, those don't count,
).People that hate this game are already gone, I think. The most critical posts I see are from people that want this game to work, to deliver what was promised, to be stable and to be fun.
Though, what we see is quite the contrary. Every update solves some problems and adds new ones. I played EDO almost every day since release and the current state of the game is worse than before. All my preferred game "loops" are broken. And not a single word from FDev so far.
Again, that's not what I was talking about, but thanks for the discussion. I don't have a problem with people being negative about something they like. In the end they just want it to be better.If they're anything like me, they're gone.

Trust me, you are wrong. Some people just come here to point and laugh. They repeatedly claim the game is doomed since 2014 and every time they are proven wrong it just makes them more bitter.
But they are playing, as long as it's registered they "tried" to play then it won't affect FDEVs share priceSteam reviews are getting worse: 77 % of the reviews in the last 30 days were negative. Player numbers drop accordingly:

I'm wondering if the actual figure is half of what is up and most of the time it's kicking players out and they are trying to get back in
on steam all i see is mixed reviews, and read a few, not all the numbers u see are negative reviews, some are still positive but gone into the mixed reviews section.
Silently hums a certain Eagles song
How about more recent statistic with out June 2020 Fleet Carrier release.
7 months of maintaining over 10k and all erased in 1.5 month of Odyssey release.
Aren't graphs beautiful?
