by Andreas Teufel (Poland)
Confused nonsense about a shadowdancer/assassin in some parallel universe Italy (best setting EVAR!!!11), a story that repeats over and over in some utterly senseless way, a protagonist who is uninteresting in the worst way since he has no personality at all and WE KNOW NOT A FUCKING THING ABOUT HIM.
yeah, it's game of the year (!) material all right!
I am beyond words.

This is likely wasted on you, being a comment conversation that occurred over two years ago, but:
If you consider a review with no meaningful content beyond an angry tone, anyone who calls you on this to be an arrogant douchebag, a usefulness rating to be a meaningful evaluation of your personal worth, and a community that calls you on substance-free reviews...
...goodbye.

1. don't think I couldn't write better reviews if I wanted to, but I have already wasted time on total desasters, I won't waste more time on painstakingly replaying them and stating the flaws in a more objective manner, what'd be the point?
bashing favourably-rated games (WHY?!) would never result in a high usefulness rating
yeah, I gave those authors a piece of my mind all right (gotta release my own games under a different name, lol)
2. "daring"? hahaha... good one
empty is the correct term (which is the origin of this whole affair)
3.
"just because you don't like it, doesn't mean it's bad."
but because I don't like it, I state exactly that in my review, I never CLAIMED to be objective, and I never claimed to have written a good review
this site is not about review-writing contests (but then again maybe it is?!), when I vote yes or no the main criterium is the star rating given, and when I write a review my intent is to state whether I liked the game or not (which is the summary of all the factors like novelty, writing style, setting etc.), and that's all I intend to do - I honestly cannot see what would be wrong with that approach

yes they are reviews, what makes you think you're the god of reviewing!
when I play a game of the year I don't expect some meaningless incomprehensible utterly uninteresting mess, this happened TWICE now
how would giving the reasons I hate a game NOT be reviewing it... especially when nobody is actually willing to defend them (what a surprise!)
it's not like my positive as-constructive-as-possible reviews weren't voted down just the same
2 fucks in 6 reviews aren't "profanity-filled", get a grip

I appreciate your honesty but you sure could lose the profanity.

oversensitive, aren't we?
rather tell me what's good about this disasterpiece, since it seems I'm the only one not getting the joke
