Yeah, you guys should check out the lighting setup in the levels.

I was thinking back to all the speculation we had about how R60 was likely bugged beyond belief and Wu was dumb enough not to keep backups, but apparently Wu managed to put something FUNCTIONAL out on Steam anyway.
The all caps is intentional, that's not the same as saying it runs well, because it does not despite some minor technical improvements that @Jaimas noted.
If anything, Wu (in a world where they are competent) should have had a closed beta where keys were handed out to beta testers, fixed as many issues before release, then dropped this crap on the public, because while it's not exactly in obvious alpha build game, it's barely above mid-development beta build quality.
Worse, based on what we know of the file structure and programming, Wu could not have known shit about how it all really functioned on a technical level, especially since it was a chimera of various Unreal blueprints with super bloated classes (which certainly explains the bad frame rate and load times), and the non programming parts weren't much more competent save for some minor visual eyecandy add-ons, which is like spritzing air freshener over a cow patty: it'll smell marginally better for a little bit, but you can still notice the bad attempt to hide the smell of shit.
It still managed to function to game completion for those whose bothered to get that far, but considering all the glitches and issues even for those who magically avoided all the show stopping issues reported by others, it would have been better had this been bugged beyond saving, as what we got is still a crude embarrassment.

I tried. I'd do it again, but the doctor says the blindness might be permanent.

Being serious here, I would have volunteered to be a beta tester for John. Not that I see a ton of bugs in the streams I've watched, but more to provide some constructive criticism on the gameplay mechanics, story, etc. I do think the game could have been revamped and made better for the Steam release, but it's all for naught now.
Edit: @Lowtax , you are slaying it. Thanks for the hilarious stream and review.

You're lucky, my doctor said the two hours of exposure to that game cut my sperm count in half (to 1).
I gotta admit, I'm having a lot of fun here. This is like Daikatana all over again.
That reminds me, technical kiwis like @Norvic, you might want to submit any nuts and bolts details about R60 to here:

The game is a farce, the reviews are awful and Lowtax is back on form.
What a time to be alive.

Yes, because if there's one type of person who's really great at handling that, it's the mentally ill narcissist.

The implication is that it should be Wu who gets more recognition. If she really was stuck in a room with women more successful than her, she'd do everything she could to get the attention on her and undercut them.
Based on a couple of stories I heard from the conference she attended in DC, neither of us are too far from the truth.
Which John came the closest to making you his bitch?

Damn, I was about to unleash a nice meme upon this thread. But here's the one for Wu's next game:

Yup. Media created by lolcows is always fun to eviscerate, especially when you just know every journo hack this side of polygon will be giving it rave reviews under fear of being declared part of the vile GG rape conspiracy.
I honestly look forward to seeing how the game will be spun as good by the usual publications.

Just popped in on the app myself and yeah, all the reviews are completely gone.
