So you came in here watching the screenshots (and possibly gameplay videos) and say for yourself. Hey! This game looks great! Then you watch the reviews and seem to be mixed a bit because it seems the "old fans" hate this game because of reasons. Still not convinced dig deeper and got to here, my review.
So why does this game suck? Well assume that you are a complete newbie to the EE franchise. Assume that you do not hold the same sentiment as old EE fans have, assume that you want to try EE and EE3 will be your entry game. Why should you skip this.
For starters, the game is PLAGUE with TECHNICAL ISSUES. No really it does. Basically if you have an Intel iGPU you're screwed. Although the game plays and runs fine for the next few minutes, you'll soon realize what I mean when you start to encounter things such as crashes with no details on how to fix whatsoever.
Then you also have AMD issues with regards to frame rates and (also crashes). Tough luck. What about Nvidia? well it has its own problems too. Personally what I am experiencing (as an Nvidia user) is that... I CANNOT MAKE SHADOWS WORK. I have it toggled but no shadows. Nothing
The only redeeming factor of this game is the graphics and even that I cannot have because of some weird reason? Tried looking all over the internet for fixes and turns out nobody bothers making fixes on this game because there are no die hards fan of this game bother figuring out how to make things work (it doesn't help that Mad dog closed 6 months after releasing this game)
Tried several ways trying stuff like dgvoodoo, wine wrappers to no avail, So if you still are not discourage on buying this game, then just bare in mind that think of it as playing an early access game that was long abandoned by the developers. Because that exactly what you get from buying this one.
