Despite Sony's rollback on the PSN requirement, I'm still giving this a negative review because of them. The same time they announced pulling the plug on that May 6th update, they pulled the game from all the countries that don't have a PSN. With how they specifically mentioned that one update, and the weird unneeded requirement to not sell the game in regions that don't need a PSN, I don't trust Sony not to try doing it again.

Helldivers 2 is good, it's fun. The devs have done good work for the most part, and the community are great at spreading democracy. But I can't trust Sony.

Back at launch I was quick to defend the team for how messy the game was, given how I was a beta tester and knew it was way worse than it released as. Now that Polus.gg is shutting down their servers and development from lack of funding, and we've had time to really see the mod... yeah I'll admit it, it wasn't good.

Submerged, the map created by the Submarine Team, was the only thing really worth playing on here. That's about the only good thing I can really say about the mod as a whole, everything else was basically negative in my own experience.


Overall it wasn't a pleasant experience. Everything was handled on the server's side. Want to kill someone? Well the server determines if you're close enough to kill. Meaning if you had less than good ping, even the simple act of killing someone was clunky as you might have to wait for a noticeable time to kill someone, if they even died. This means if you wanna play with friends across countries, you were almost always going to have someone struggling.

Now for the Town of Us replacement, Town of Polus... Rose reused basically all the roles from the old Submarine mods that 5up's lobby played with back on Airship, yet every single role came out worse. For example Serial Killer being essentially an Impostor without a sabotage in the older mods, was converted into what basically comes down to a Crewmate with a kill button. No extra tools.
The only changes I can think of in this mod that I'd consider actually good was the option for Phantom to be active the moment they died, and if Sheriff was alive even when Impostors should've won the game then Sheriff was still able to kill.

Hide and Seek was alright for a custom gamemode, the fact the hiders were more hidden made it more interesting. Especially with the built in settings to have the seeker stuck at the start, and the 0 second kill cooldown. However it fell awful because of the server-side design choices I mentioned before regarding killing.

Overall, this was not the future of modding Rose hoped it would be. Now I wish I hadn't spent $50+ on this...

Back long ago when I made this review, it was big as hell.

Now that I have over 300 hours, including speedrunning... game fun, movement good, music good, buy game.

Early Access Review
I've only been playing this game for 5 hours total, and I love it, you can customise your characters with special cards to fit how you play, whether you're playing as offensive as a tiger. Or as defensive as a wall, or between, where you'll survive a while and still do lots of damage.

The only downside about this game however, can be your teammates, as sometimes they'll wanna run off and do their own thing, or not care about defending the objective or attacking it. But that's just something you can't control.

Hi, I got The Escapists and I loved it, it's challenging and sometimes annoying but always fun, I have noticed a glitch that keeps happening

If I close my laptop with the game still running, when I come back, the game speeds up about 10%, seriously, the game was moving so fast that every 5 steps was a new period

This only happened 2 times to me, the first time I had no idea it would happen and I lost all my items because I was stuck behind a wall and was afraid of getting caught. This time I knew what was going on but since I thought my laptop turned off, I thought I was safe

Sorry, I shouldn't be doing this but I thought it was something serious that should be looked into, despite the glitch I just explained, I really enjoyed it, like I said, it's fun and challenging

I'll give it 8/10 :D
