Jagged Alliance: Rage miało dzisiaj swoją premierą, gra jest oferowana na #steam (oraz ps4 i xboxone). Aktualnie ma 13 recenzji na steamie, z czego 15% jest pozytywnych ( ͡º ͜ʖ͡º)

Pojawiła się krótka recenzja gry, którą tutaj zamieszczam:

1. Cartoon Graphics
Taste can be different, also you can overlook "old" vs "modern" graphic engines in strategy games. But you cannot give a simple, low effort graphic a free pass. JA2 graphics are "old" they are 2D sprite based, but they are hand crafted with love for details, which means high effort from talented artists. This game looks like a cheap handy game, very blanc and low poly. Unity with some reused assets from Jagged Alliance Online. And to hide this cheap look they turned on filters and the occlusion map to a point where everything looks cartoonish and unreal.

2. No Strategic Map Gameplay
No militia control, no repairing, no doctoring, no teaching/learning, no skyrider, no bobby ray, no squad management and yes no global income from mines.

3. No Global Inventory
If you loved to collect items in an sector or to micromanage your squad before fights, it's all gone. You take everything you had from the last map into the new map. Exchanging items between mercenary is pure pain.

4. Only 7 playable mercenary
Not 52 or 36 also not 24 ... yes you heard it right, just 7 merc you can choose from. No salary management just choose from 7 free merc.

5. No IMP Character
Jagged Alliance and the famous imp creation is gone. You cannot make your own mercenary.

6. Very Small Maps
If you have a claustrophobic disorder, take a huge turn around this game.

7. Bad Voice Acting (At least in German)
A child just lost his parents, is voiced by an aged woman and does not even cry or at least sound emotionally distracted. No, she speaks to us in an totally normal tone. A complete voice directing failure.

8. Bad Developer
Jan Wagner from Cliffhanger Games said in an interview that they went bankrupt because of the failure of jagged alliance online and the shadowrun game they made. They are now down to some core employees and are doing only paid work to keep them alive. No time for "passion" work. They tried to cater more towards an "action" audience with the title "rage" this in it self speaks volumes.

9. Censoring the fan-base
The obvious lack of features in this game compared to the other Jagged Alliance games is spinned around (Marketing) by handy games in the way that this is just a "spin-off" and because it is a super creative "spin-off" it should not be compared to the other Jagged Alliance games. That is the explanation from handy games why they move every thread were people are complaining about the lack of features into an sub forum. Normal visitors of the forum probably don't even notice the existence of the subforum. This is the blatant try to get rid of some bad feedback by censoring.

10. Cash Cow / IP Abusing
But why using the name of Jagged Alliance if you censor and ignore the core fanbase? This game is feature low (Spin off) with purpose. They just tried to make a small and quickly developed Jagged Alliance game with Cliffhanger coming out of bancrupcy, to make some quick cash with the jagged alliance license.
