In comparison, when you go to buy the action RPG's premium currency, you're taken to a payment page before anything happens. (The button being criticized doesn't charge the user money, but does irreversibly use up something they spent money on.)
It's not a good look for a game that just dropped a patch so controversal that Blizzard promised to never do it again. It's a shame that the nerfs have taken the wind out of the launch of Season 1, because the new seasonal mechanic is a blast to play with.
Classic '90s shooter Star Wars: Dark Forces is getting the Nightdive remaster treatment
Star Wars: Dark Forces was the first big film tie-in first-person shooter, and it was hugely impressive upon release in 1995. It wasn't as fast and bloody as Doom but it was definitely Star Wars, and that's what mattered most. It captured the spirit of the films really well, and with some fascinating tech trimmings to boot: the Jedi Engine allowed for some ambitious level design.
So it was probably only a matter of time before Nightdive Studios took its remaster magic to it. Star Wars: Dark Forces Remaster will release in "Q4 2023" with the usual spit and polish improvements, in this case:
Dark Forces and its sequel were precursors to the Jedi Knight series and are among the best Star Wars games going. Like Rise of the Triad, it released at a weird time for FPS games, when Doom overshadowed everything and Quake's jump to full 3D had yet to throw a spanner in the (clone) works.
Sure, the Star Wars license helped, but Dark Forces is notable (among other reasons) for its cinematic presentation, which was kind of a no-no back in 1995 FPS land. It also featured some real 3D models, and the engine supported double-storey maps. Andy Kelly published a fascinating Dark Forces retrospective a few years ago.

nice post
It’s honestly a rough start for a game trying to keep fans excited. Launch issues and a frustrating battle pass mechanic make for a bumpy beginning, and it doesn't help that they’re still ironing out problems that could have been anticipated. It's a reminder of the importance of listening to players early on—just like Pokerogue and Pokerogue Dex , which offer a fresh approach to strategy gameplay by considering what the player actually needs for a smooth experience.

wordle game
It's concerning when a game updates without proper checks, like the recent controversial patch in wordle game. Developers need to ensure smooth transitions, unlike this game's recent mishap with its battle pass system. Meanwhile, the remaster of Star Wars: Dark Forces by Nightdive Studios promises a nostalgic treat for '90s FPS fans.

slope game
It's not a good look for a game that just dropped a controversial patch without proper user confirmation. Unlike buying premium currency in an action RPG, where you're prompted before payment, this game's update risks irreversible actions without consent. It's reminiscent of navigating the slope game tricky terrain blindly. Season 1's launch suffers from these issues, overshadowing its promising seasonal mechanic.
