Where they were once enjoyable, your new games have become time-consuming and frustrating. I can't honestly say I take any pleasure from sharks-lagoon any more; at the best of times the characters are unimpressive and the dialoge a tad long. At the worst I feel like a guest star in "The Divinchi Code II: Hawaii".
I no longer have the 9-10 hours necessary to wade through every ponderous and confusing scene.
-Deuces!-
Unimpressive characters? Why? They too typically white Caucasians predating upon a "lower class" of humanity?
I can commiserate with you upon the frustrations within this game. Many commentators have demanded that Shark introduced more challenges. Yes, there have been those who would prefer to work with things like those previously, and the new "Babysitting". There is a bigger issue here though.
Would you have Shark continue to produce a genre of games that, like the Hentai market, plateau? Different story line, same tricks to solve the puzzles?
Yes. Let's demand that of Shark. Listening Shark? The idea is that we don't want you to challenge yourself, ignore your creativity desires and bring everything back to the common level!
Then too, let's not have Shark invite the membership to be story board consultants so that we do not get fresh ideas. Sorry Raelee! This story seems to have been a bad idea, as probably we will find of "Babysitting".
Um? What is my financial outlay to participate in Sharks Lagoon? What does it cost me to take my lady to the cinema or a stage production which I know I won't enjoy?
No! Shark, like any producer, cannot please every audience. Yes, all artists have their critics.
Since this is not an anti-democratic despotic regime we do have to consider "the right to free speech" but we don't have to accept your opinion.
My friend
LRM would likely say, "Don't like? Lump it!"
As an afterthought, I note that my reply is to one who has never participated in Forum discussions until today; I'm sure such guided wisdom, previously offer, may have meant that he need not have posted so late!
