This is the second phase: Publicity backlash, where millions of people state that they will not get it because they've heard about it too much. It dovetails with the stage where no matter how good and/or popular a game is, there will be some who hate it. This is the counterpoint to the "Screw the haters, [possibly terrible game] is awesome" effect.Banana Kid said:After hearing the entire internet not shut up about this game since E3, I've moved from being excited to completely sick of this game. Okay, I get it, you can spawn anything and sometimes it'll fight something else. It's not going to change the world.
Side note, I think/hope that most of the puzzles -aren't- about spawning things to fight other things. Or, if they are, I suspect it will still be in a fashion that requires some slight thought and creativity.
In short: Puzzle game, not combat game.
