after being so hard disappointed and treated in a bad way by that company I will wait till that game is available for 20€ or less.
I bought ETW when it was released for 50€ (when I remember right) and I got extra a new high end PC (well, now I can play FH2 an max everything but the intention was for ETW). I took them OVER a half a year to get it patched that it actually is smooth playable and the Multiplayer (the most striking reason to buy it) has been released a year later as a beta. Did I mentioned it is still a beta?
I do not boycott products of that company after the experience I made with ETW. Right now, after patch 1.4 and later versions, it is really enjoyable, and the other parts as Rome etc. where great, but I take now care of the Stuff they release and will not buy blind their stuff. Now, I only trust Blizziard “blind” when it comes to games.
You are not alone on this, I can tell you that.
I had so much anticiaption for ETW, and practically the only reason I bought it was to play the multiplayer-campaign. I'm disappointed.
Even if they had released ETW all done, no patches needed, I would not buy Napoleon. It seems to much of a rip-off, seriously, are there really any major gameplay changes? it's still musketeers vs musketeer shootouts + closing in, spiced up with some cavalry and artillery.
There is nothign "revolutionizing" at all, that would be the supply-system mudra mentioned, but it's not enough, that's patch-material for ETW.
But I guess I should be realistic, if NTW ever reaches like 10 $ on some steam-sale or something, then I might buy it. MIGHT.
