A bloody mess or work in progress?
If you're a fan of Blood Bowl 3, you might be feeling a little disappointed right now. The game's reception among players has been a bit of a bloodbath, with negative reviews flooding in on Steam. But is the game really that bad, or are these just teething problems that will be ironed out in time?
Let's take a look at some of the issues that players have been having, and what the developers are doing to address them.
A rocky start
First up, the launch of Blood Bowl 3 hasn't been the smoothest. Some players have been unable to play due to server issues and various errors. However, the developers have released a patch to fix these problems, and some players have reported that the game is now working much better.
There was also a mistake that led to players receiving the wrong version of the game, which caused some confusion. However, Cyanide, the game's developers, have said that they're letting players keep the incorrectly granted currency, while removing any cosmetics that they didn't pay for. Those who legitimately purchased the Brutal Edition of the game will also receive even more in-game currency to make up for the mistake.
Monetisation concerns
One of the main concerns among players is the game's monetisation system. While Cyanide claims that it's fair and optional, players are worried that it's not very rewarding and that key features are missing.
Cyanide has said that it intends to implement features that allow players to earn cosmetic items and in-game currency through gameplay, as well as through purchases. However, some players allege that certain teams are already complete and discoverable in the game's files but are being withheld to be sold as DLC.
Cyanide has responded to this by saying that future factions are still under development, and that one team is at a more advanced stage than the others but still requires testing and validation.
The verdict
So, what's the verdict on Blood Bowl 3? While it's clear that the game has some issues to iron out, it's also clear that the developers are actively working to address them. It's worth remembering that the game has only just been released, and it's not uncommon for new games to have some teething problems.
If you're a fan of the Blood Bowl series, it's probably worth giving the game a chance once the developers have had a chance to address some of the issues. And if you're on the fence, it might be worth waiting a little longer to see how things pan out.
