Your reaction. :p

A message from Joe Fielder, the game director:

Basically, they've been doing hotfixes and are scoping a larger update after Thanksgiving, with a priority on saves.

I do appreciate how they are trying to fix the game and make it better, considering how many companies just abandon games. We'll see if this is a No Man's Sky situation where it launches to a very bad reception but over time (Hopefully much short than No Man's Sky did), the game's potential really starts to be realized.

I genuinely look forward to playing this at some point, as I'm confident there'll be a lot to like; but I'm absolutely bewildered by the lack-of-save, and would be interested to know what conversations went on behind the scenes about that. I find it impossible to believe that they decided "let's just not have one of those -- surely nobody will mind". I could easily believe they discovered horrible problems with their game-saving, didn't have time to fix it before their hard deadline, and just ripped it out. If so, it pains me to think how much that's going to hurt them in reviews. This "release buggy, and then try to fix it later" business always seems like it can only harm the bottom line; but I guess they're between a rock and a hard place...

Buccura, NMS also sold (
https://gamerant.com/no-mans-sky-best-selling-steam-game/) very well, so the devs could afford to just keep working on it for a while. I doubt Otherside has that same luxury. :/
I too would love to try this game at some point, but I'll wait for a discount.

Ugh. This isn't going to go well.

There’s no way to sugarcoat this. Underworld Ascendant is phenomenally bad, a catastrophic mess of poor design ideas, woeful execution, and bugs the size of buildings.
I'm not sure I can recall them giving a score as low as 25 to game with such a profile. :(
