        So, where does 55% fall in the scoring? Is that the mixed category? -- nm - David Aug 18, 11:34 5
        
        It ranks as "Mixed" but it might as well be the worst reviewed game of all time. -- nm - Tim Aug 18, 11:40 4
        
        Okay, so it's a total bust. That's a shame. - David Aug 18, 11:42 3
        
        Since you can only add a review if you bought the game on Steam, no. - Tim Aug 18, 11:44 1

    - Shenmue in the Most Disappointing Games Ever list is actually a pretty fair comparison. -- nm - David Aug 18, 10:56 5

        It's widely considered as one of the best sequels ever, with 91/90 scores on metacritic for PS3/360. -- (edited) - Shaun Aug 18, 11:09
      - I don't know how that list can be missing Black& White, Star Wars Rebellion and the SimCity reboot - Reagen Aug 18, 11:03 1
        
        SimCity is on there. But there's a couple of WTF choices. -- nm - Tim Aug 18, 11:05
- Technicaly, I'm following the Atlas Path, but I'm really playing it more as a Ferengi than anything else. -- nm - David Aug 18, 10:22 4
  - heh. Its funny though, I am as well, but I cant help but think I really want to just keep warping to the universe center. - Jovian Aug 18, 10:26 3
    - If you do and the game ends, you can always just start over. - David Aug 18, 10:27 2
      - I have a feeling you weren't entirely aware of what this game was supposed to be about. -- nm - Shaun Aug 18, 10:39 1

- "I went to the store for 5 minutes. I got 47 calls from the dog and he no longer needs dinner. Or breakfast tomorrow." -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 18, 10:19 1
