OK, Travis M. I read your review, I played Hellgate London, Diablo 2, all the games you play, I am alot like you, I like a good game and play them to have fun.
Let me go point by point on your ridiculous review.
#1 Get a real computer I guess? Hellgate has not crashed 1 freaking time for me, it patches fine, plays perfectly. I mean the way you talked in your silly review, I should not have been able to get passed any quests hardly because I would go back to the beginning. Lol to you? Not 1 crash, and I play with several friends over ventrillo, and they don't crash either? Must be your computer, which is ironic since your at Tom's and your supposed to have "working" computers to do your job. Pretty funny. Why doesn't mine crash?
#2 This game is way better than diablo 2 from a design perspective. Just the fact you can play it first person adds a totally new dimension to the game that puts it above Diablo games. Not only that, the game doesn't have the lame quirks diablo had, and is much more diverse in the way you can play the game.
#3 4/10? 4 out of 10? I think your way out of line. I think the crashes from your junk computer killed this review, because you just got overly frustrated from it. If it didn't crash like mine, and you were the slight bit rational, it would be at least 8/10 as its far above the quality of the average game out there that is released, far above.
#4 cinematics? You cried that you saw a war happen and you wanted to be in it? Dude, your such a hypocrite there! You ever play Starcraft, War3, etc, and they have the movies during the game with all the little wars, etc and then you start back on the SAME OLD GENERIC type of level, with the same basic strategy on every level? But of course, that game is a 9.5/10 with you right? In other words, the Cinematics have nothing whatsoever to do with a game review, only the PLAY OF THE GAME DOES. I mean you would think this is like a "basic" of basic reviewing principle of any fair minded reviewer. Your just off your rocker. "the game's movies didn't live up to where it placed me when I started the mission, so the game sucks" Man, your insane.
#5 the level designs were repetitive? Then you compare it to Diablo 2 in the same paragraph? And the LEVELS ON DIABLO WERE ANY DIFFERENT? LOL Diablo was super repetitive! So is alot of games. Hellgate London has more different level designs than your fanboy game, Team Fortress 2, and that game doesn't suck, its a great game!.
This type of ridiculous 4/10 review from an obvious quality game like this makes you look really bad. Its not even objective, you just whine and hate, and find every little flaw in it, the glass is half empty the entire time.
Next time, load it up on a good computer, so you can enjoy yourself, maybe you overclocked your junk too high, which is my suspicion, which is why it crashed all the time. Some overclockers live in a fantasy land, maybe you, thinking their 4 GHZ system is stable because it could run Pi or whatever for 24 hours. Then you play games that generate alot more heat because of the video card going to 90 C or something, and crash your supposed stable system.
lastly, everytime I load hellgate, and log on, and there is a patch, it automatically patches, and works FLAWLESSLY.
People, this guy Travis M. is a laugh, and a joke, and this review makes him look really bad. People that have this game on solid computers know better.
LOL again, so funny.
