I still see potential in this game, and I'm willing to bet that patches will keep coming for a long time.

From IGN:

No matter what happens with stability and bug-fixing patches, its poor controls, awful interface, and dull pacing ensure that X Rebirth will remain unpleasant for all but the most forgiving, die-hard space jockeys.

Agreed 100%

I imagine you'll find profanity-filled reviews of games out there too, that doesn't mean the language would be acceptable here. The particular term you dance around there is particularly offensive, hence the stomping.

(No, this post needs no reply. Not aimed specifically at you, btw Scappy, just generally

I am actually starting to see potential in this game, between the bugs Ego has fixed, and the features that modders have managed to implement, I can almost feel in control of my fleet and trade is almost worth doing (though being a missile salesman still seems more profitable than anything I can do with my freighters.... at least it gives missiles a purpose.... since they are so weak it feels like I am just shooting credits out the front of my ship). I have been trying really hard to like this game, since I spent so much time anticipating it, and there is a gleam of gold under the dust and grime.

That being said though, I find this trend to almost be unforgivable. Software should not be sold as 'fixware'. Modding should be encouraged, as it leads not only to great features but a tailoring to an individuals playstyle that is impossible with a single mass-release. However, modding should not be there to 'finish' a game for you. I would not play vanilla X Rebirth at this time, however modded XR is not bad, so I will stick around and see what it will become with more time (also please give the modders the tools they need to make significant changes... they are probably all thats keeping this game on life support...).

A lot of people in here, me inclusive render that conclusion useless. The review has this smell of yet another x-x3 widow who, as someone already pointed out above, didn't get the fees from deep silver to write a single good positive aspect of the game. And they are here for every one who played the game to see.

Yea, evil ZOG (presented by community) want to blame X:R cuz its "Not another X3 game".

Man, Iam (and lots of players, and IGN) talk about it: interacting with User Interface its... like eating cactus.
