Re: Do you want business, or not?
Just a little question for you Atticus..
Did you try the demo before you decided to buy the game?
If the answer is yes, did you purchase the game because you expected the 'final' Version to turn into Diablo2 or some other high-end commercial game? IMHO and as far as I know Malfador and Shrapnel go out of their way to give we the 'end-Users' all the info (including demos) of their products. We are then 'Free' to make our decision based on the info... And After-sales support from Malfador and Shrapnel is second to none.
If you want to talk about loosing money on crappy games,.. I too have a large collection of games. (Close to 100) and there are some titles that I feel totally ripped me off. We're talking in the $69-$89 dollar range (Plus tax!) Lords of magic, Outpost, Rage of Mages, Betrayal at Antara, Emperor of the Fading Suns (which stopped working after DirectX 6.0 came out. and no patch is available!) How about spending $59+tax for D2:LoD and getting just one extra chapter. (I spent $79+tax for the original D2 and it came with 4 chapters.) When I do the math the expansion should have sold for $19.95.
Anyway, I'm sorry you feel like you got ripped off. All I can say is that I for one am still creating new graphics for Dungeon Odyssey and I will 'Always' release them to the public for 'Free'.
One more thing,.. If Arron and I had more info as to what 'exactly' pissed you off about this game (regarding the gameplay or bugs you found) There would be a better chance that they could be fixed and or included in an upcomming patch.
Have a Great Day. Cheers!
P.S. If it's any consolation, I think that 'ALL' game players out there (myself included) have at one time or another felt exactly the same way.
Nuf Said!
