If it wasn't for the bugs, this would be a darn fine game.
Yes, I entered an area, came back, and found that after hours of playing, I could not complete the game because of a stupid glitch. A GLITCH.
So, months later, my pride reconstituted, I tried again. "Yes!" I cried. "I made it further than before!" Then I saved.
When I reloaded the save, the enemies had disappeared. Their weapons hung in midair, twisting oddly. This would not have been a problem if it wasn't so that the only way to make it through this part was to kill all the enemies. I reloaded again and again, no luck. I was stuck, again, not due to bad playing, but because of another GLITCH.
So to Surreal Software, I say this: Hire some f**king quality control that isn't a bunch of stoned teenagers just trying to make a quick buck by playing video games. Your gameplay designers, environment designers, everything, are great. But if your game has bugs worse than most hobbyist games do, you have problems. And SHAME on you for getting my hopes up, making a great game and having it shattered by stupid problems.
