Reviews - Translucent3

For the sake of transparency, I can here via the announcement link on the game.

I was going to leave a more positive review, but something about the story in the announcement doesn't sit well with me and I'm starting to find the whole chain of events that led to the announcement and links to here somewhat hard to believe and a bit too convenient in regards to the timing of the upcoming deadline for reviews.

There are a number of issues with this game, many of which seem to be exploitable by a few players, some of which have been exploited by some of the top players who are still in the game.

One such issue is the ability to gain bonuses in matches against other players with the support of anonymous viewers. In the past, this has been explained away as the top users having lots of non-game followers from chat rooms or facebook/twitter, but in the last few days the developers have limited that number of supporters and shifted the focus to a single player who they are now attributing multiple bad reviews for this game.

I only see 2 low-scoring reviews here, which isn't how the announcement in the game linking to this site portrays the individual who they claim wrote them.

This is starting to feel like a manufactured event intended to generate positive reviews from the fans.

I really like this game, despite a growing number of exploits and issues that haven't really been addressed for months, but I feel like we're being manipulated into giving falsely-positive reviews now that the deadline is coming near.
