I've said it before and I'll probably say it again, but the older I get, the less interested I am in multiplayer games. The very idea of sharing my time with a bunch of abusive teenagers screaming slurs at me through bad headset microphones doesn't seem like much of a good time. Since the introduction of voice chat in multiplayer games, you couldn't even pay me to take part in the absolute shit show that is contemporary online multiplayer gaming.
I'm always in two minds about whether or not I should write about Early Access games, especially before they are finished. Part of me feels like it's a bit unfair to assess something that's in the process of being made, but a much bigger part of me says that if you're selling a promise, you're open for business. Besides, it's not as if I'm going to be playing anymore Flotsam anyway - just be warned that this game may change a lot by the time it eventually gets released.
Sometimes having a good idea isn't enough to really make an impression among the myriad of indie games released on a regular basis. Most of the time, a game really needs to be the complete package if it's going to catch your eye, but there are always exceptions to the rule.
