This game is great, and when you get to play it, it's really fun! Unfortunately there are just soooo many connectivity issues - and since there is a solid record of people having issues going years back already, it's pretty clear that the developers have no interest in fixing the issue.
If they can fix the servers I'll recommend this game.

Love the game! Arrowhead has done a slam-dunk job. Too bad Sony is trying their hardest to mess it up. I'll keep my review negative until they've removed their purchase restrictions on the game.

Been very exited to have this game for a long looong time now, but was unwilling to suffer through Epic Games just to play it. Now it launches on Steam and I find out that Epic Games is **still required** to play multiplayer. Gross.

Cut your losses, looks like the game is not that fun anyways.

I fundamentally disagree with the premise of many of the questions being asked. I feel that the binary responses the developers have prepared for you almost never cover the true breadth of the possibility of actions that could be taken.

I also frequently feel like I was backed into a corner for the sake of the "story". With hindsight I don't think any of the responses I gave would change the final outcome of the story line, so what's the point?

I think the trolley problem - and variations of it - are VERY fun. Don't get me wrong. This game however works to make you feel bad about the decisions you made regardless of the morality of said decisions. I get that the trolley problem has no /correct/ answer, so why shame me for either action I made?

tl;dr. It wasn't fun to play and didn't really dive into the parts of the trolley problem that make it interesting in the first place.

Coffee Stain never misses. This game is incredibly fun.

I don't need to say more.

The multiplayer update is just as disappointing as everyone expected it to be. I don't know why you would rewrite the entire game (to the point where old saves don't work) only to leave the game in a state that will require ANOTHER rewrite in order to "finish" the game. I would rather wait for a proper rework that to have this dumped on my lap and told that it's "better than nothing".

This game is really fun don't get me wrong - but I don't see it headed in a direction that will fix the most blaring issues. Get used to playing it on your own.
