    DnL was promised to be an amazing game.  Graphics and massive PvP.. dynamic NPC civilizations.. A game mature gamers would love..
    It sucks..  Now let's be clear, many games suck, but none billed itself to be so good..  Blacksac lied to the public about this game.. Farlan Lied.. It seems anyone with a financial stake or an emotional stake lied..  And they lie to this day.
    Many a game has not been great on release, but not one I ever encountered actually tried to make customers believe the game's faults were the customer's and  not the game's.  Until DNL..
    If people like Blacksac had played the game (yeah that helps), and said the game is not good, but this is where we need to go.. people might have given support.  If the Devs had said they had a concept that is not the norm and needs time, a concept that will be great, but please support us and give us time..  They might have lived.
    Instead lies.. Sog is not Beta, Sog is not DnL, DnL is not DnL..  People like Blacksac do not care that people wasted money.  They do not care that Farlan is a thief..  They care that they are praised by an unknown Game Dev that lies and steals. 
    The result?  The worst rated game ever.. I've played bad games  since I started gaming in 1978.. but this is the first and only that I asked for a refund.  This is the first and only that I felt was bordering on criminal fraud..
    And you can thank Blacksac (and those like Blacksac) for that..
    You reaped what you sowed..

    Ok so you want to blame fans for the failures of the devs? That is just ignorant.

    Have you played the game? I have, and the graphics are great, just that much of the game doesn't work all that well. Saying blacksac is an employee is just swatting at pink elephants, and the elephant in the room is an Npcube programmer.

    umm, yes and the graphics are a tragedy.

    I had to eat one of those things once and keep it down during an initiation, nasty arn't they?Worst part was I was sober

    What are you going on about, balut is the shit!   We have this other one, steamed eggs of monitor lizard (those suckers grow to about 4-5 feet long).  When you cook them that way the egg shell becomes dry and leather-like, then you tear it open like paper and suck out the insides.

    Anyway yeah we do eat lots of strange things, most of my ancestors must've been like, 'Hey look what I found on the ground, I wonder how many ways we can cook it!'

    I don''t really know when Humankind will die out but i''m guessing about 6 years before WOW.

    hahhah well if it any comfort, som efoods that I grew up with my wife won't touch with a ten foot fork  and I did develop a taste for that shrimp paste on green mango slices that is quite popular in Manilla. The monkey( goat? cat?) on a stick was damn good too.

    By teh way Black you should have seen this one coming. I mean really a guy/girl that devotes hour and hours each day digging up every little tidbit bout a game and reposting it on every game site on the web but says they do not play the game. A little hard to swallow isn't it mate?
