Yikes, was it that bad?
It's such an insane downgrade from what they've been advertising I honestly don't know what reviewers were doing in their overviews of this game. Reading the reviews, you'd think this is the game we were getting as advertised. Instead, scores of features have been toned down or removed completely, visual effects so dramatically impacted it looks like some parody version at times.
I'm genuinely furious at Namco and From for this, if the PC version is not what the videos have been advertising all this time I might be done with the series without a complete apology.
