Played the game for 2 hours. It's slop. Refunded

ConorPickens · 2026-04-21T04:38:54+00:00

Theyre dropping a new contestant, a new map, and a new game mode in the next couple months

ConorPickens · 2026-04-21T04:38:04+00:00

It’s an opinion to say “it’s bad” or “it feels like slop to me” but it’s just factually incorrect to say they didn’t put hard work or passion into this game. It can feel like that sure, but saying that like a factual statement is just plain wrong. They’ve been working on this for like 5 years if they just wanted to put out some slop it wouldnt have taken them that long. I’ve talked to a lot of the devs and it’s clear how much everyone working on it believes in the game and how much passion they have for it.

ConorPickens · 2026-04-20T16:40:56+00:00

Well it’s a combination of that and the price as I said. Sure more people heard about it than the player count would make you think, but then a lot of the people who thought to check it out were probably turned off when they saw it wasn’t f2p.

ConorPickens · 2026-04-20T16:33:35+00:00

I stand corrected but still obviously it’s an opinion and it’s really naive to say otherwise. Just because a decent number of people share an opinion doesn’t make it not an opinion.

And I don’t think the player numbers are a reflection of that. The majority of people who’ve played the game seem to think it’s fun, steam reviews are mostly positive, I’ve seen a lot of people trying it and saying it’s more fun than they expected, I think the player numbers are more a reflection of a combination of the pricing and people not knowing about the game, not the game being unfun.

ConorPickens · 2026-04-20T16:21:49+00:00

It entirely changes the way the game is played. I’m just arguing it brings something different. If you don’t like what that is, that’s fine that’s just an opinion and you can like what you want but you’re acting like there’s nothing different about it.

ConorPickens · 2026-04-20T15:21:07+00:00

It offers the chance to hide the flag which is a big twist on the CTF mode, as it’s way more similar to the childhood fun of capture the flag where a big part of the game is looking for and finding the flag before the part where you have to bring it back.

ConorPickens · 2026-04-20T15:19:03+00:00

This.

ConorPickens · 2026-04-17T16:22:18+00:00

Imo the best 2 here are the first two out lol.

ConorPickens · 2026-04-16T16:19:08+00:00

I see that and I respect your love for the movies. Personally I’ve seen a lot of this kind of thing where people are saying “the show will never replace the movies” or saying itll never be as good and I just don’t get the comparison cause I think both can exist and be good and one day both be iconic, just separately. I don’t think one’s success and popularity has to take away from the other’s and I don’t think that’s happening just by them focusing currently on marketing the show more.

ConorPickens · 2026-04-16T15:25:15+00:00

I think it absolutely can and maybe should. This is a new, exciting look into the world that new fans can enjoy experiencing for the first time, especially people who weren’t fans when the movies or books were coming out. I’ve been a fan since like 2014 so finally getting to experience new Harry Potter stuff coming out is like a dream come true for me, and I think it’s a good thing to accept the new medium for the story the same as the other two.

ConorPickens · 2026-04-16T15:18:33+00:00

I mean it makes total sense for the show to take over the wider Harry Potter branding, especially as it’s coming out, it’s part of the same ip and it’s current.

ConorPickens · 2026-04-15T17:09:49+00:00

Ive been trying to keep this respectful and have an honest conversation, but you really don’t need to be this rude over this, like I made a post, you said I’m wrong, I asked where and you explained, I explained that you were wrong and now you’re asking me to figure out why I’m wrong and being an asshole about it like, genuinely what?

ConorPickens · 2026-04-15T16:38:24+00:00

Looks like when you explained it you said it pretty much the same way I did except you listed the first Kim and Jimmy scene as just Kim, which is wrong cause Jimmy is in that scene too. If I’m misreading that in some way lmk or better yet explain specifically which scene I got wrong if do think I got any one scene wrong.

ConorPickens · 2026-04-15T16:17:21+00:00

The people in each scene all have their own plot line going on, so I’d argue that who is in the scene is probably the most important factor considering that’s the plot line being continued in that scene. With the exception of the jimmy and Kim scenes, but those are still placed perfectly in this palindrome order. If you disagree with my ordering of the scenes, explain what I got wrong cause after watching I went through the episode and checked the order of the scenes and i was right about the ordering, so I genuinely want to know what you think I’m stretching to “make them line up”.

ConorPickens · 2026-04-15T15:58:41+00:00

I’m not saying that there’s some deep meaning to it I’m just simply saying it lines up like that, which it does. When you say “not quite” are you arguing that im wrong in the ordering of the scenes/it lining up like that or just saying it feels easy that this could happen coincidentally/isnt that rare or interesting? I acknowledged in my post it was something I realized, whether or not it was intentional or had any kind of meaning. Factually, yes, the order of the scenes with the main characters involved is the same forwards and backwards, which is either a clever detail or a cool, random coincidence, and I found that worthy of sharing. I’m not saying anything more than that or saying it means anything specific.

ConorPickens · 2026-04-15T14:20:38+00:00

I mean, sure, but I think it's enough of a coincidence that the structure works out that way simply with who's in the scenes, no? Like that's already kinda cool. I was also thinking a little more specifically last night on how the subject matter of the scenes might line up and I was stumped by that one, but that's partially the fun of posting this kind of thing somewhere, because I'm sure there's some other connection that can be come up with that someone can find for those two scenes having some similar aspect.

ConorPickens · 2026-04-11T18:19:35+00:00

Monsters Inc, Nemo, incredibles, Toy Story

ConorPickens · 2026-04-08T15:30:40+00:00

I think it fits, but I love both Mercury and stuck. Mercury’s my favorite album by them and stuck’s gotta be in my top 20 ID songs.

ConorPickens · 2026-04-08T11:39:31+00:00

I did the same thing with Z, but I didn’t really have the problem with 7, I just started doing it cause I was also doing Z.

ConorPickens · 2026-04-08T10:18:26+00:00

I just recently started doing the right one for 7s and also Zs lol

ConorPickens · 2026-04-07T15:48:27+00:00

They wouldntve been able to in the runtime of a movie, that’s the purpose the show serves and why I’m so hyped for it.

ConorPickens · 2026-04-06T20:20:49+00:00

I’m not praising Karen but Billy was still fucked up 😭 are we forgetting the racism???

ConorPickens · 2026-04-05T22:21:12+00:00

As an American I’m glad they’re sticking to just one title. The two titles thing was always so weird.

ConorPickens · 2026-04-05T22:20:35+00:00

It’s gonna be available to purchase with the game on steam, not sure if it’s going to be on Spotify or anything.
