Forum Overview :: Reviews :: Terribly overrated Indie game sighted: Sunless Sea

[quote name="Mischief Maker"]It actually has a <A HREF="http://youtu.be/mPgATroL84c">pretty neat trailer</A> that promises a lovecraft-style horror game taking place in an alien sea. It had a prequel called "fallen london" that I tried out, but it turned out to be a freemium microtransaction-fest. What's worse, the horror gameplay promised actually turned out to be a lame comedy game: <IMG SRC="http://www.failbettergames.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/comic-5.jpg"> Eurogamer, still infamous in my mind for giving clearly 7/10 quality Strike Suit Zero a 3/10 rating because reviews suck at games, gave Sunless Sea 10/10. The pro reviews don't get any less blowjobby from there. The one point of light is a gog review describing the game freemium grindfest gameplay without the microtransactions to alleviate the tedium, and permadeath which does not at all go with hundreds of hours of grinding gameplay.
