But since you asked 1 and 2 are my reasons for not buying it

As many as it takes... but glad to see we are eye to eye on it.

how long can someone continue hating a game they do not own or play?

SH5 came out 3 months ago.

I played it for the first 2 months. I have now moved on to other things and am planning to come back when it is more extensively patched and modded, which is what I also did for SH3 and SH4.

Now that I no longer play it, I rarely visit or post in the SH5 forum.

However I see many of the same posters who do not own or play the game are still busily discussing how horrible it is.

I mean, c'mon guys, give it a rest! SH5 is here to stay whether you like it or not. Is'nt there something more productive or entertaining you could be doing?

Exactly, I totally agree with this.

Bilge Rat interesting post, but I think you left out one catergory that seems to represent about 25%, according to the poll.

I don't hate the game by the way, but feedback is feedback after all. And in that manner, for as long as it takes or never if that's the way ubi has it.

just my personal opinion.

I just feel we keep rehashing the same points over and over again. At least the rethoric looks like it has been dialed down

I got really crappy net-connection, like lights on a car, on and off all the time.
That's what I get livin' in teh woods I guess. Or maybe it's ISP, I dunno but its bad.

I will not buy any Ubis Online Only games.

I might give SH5 a go if the online-crap is removed and I can wait couple of years.
I doubt it will never happen' since they got all games going for it.
Mods are cool but they don't even enter the equation before I buy the game.

Also, Im hoping the price is then about 5 bucks.
I'd like to pay for what it's worth and I got other holes to throw money at.
A set of guitar strings I use costs about 8€ and I need to change those quite often,
especially now in the summer time when things are gettin sweaty, hehe.
I have several guitars, 4 of them I use the most of the time so you do the math.

Well, maybe there's couple of patches coming up but im not counting on it
and currently the game seems bonked, from what I read in forums.

There's plenty of other games, like SH3 or SH4 where I can get my naval fix.

So there. Honest truth, nothin' more to it.

Well I mistakenly hit the submit button too quickly before I got to finish voting.

I voted the I have not bought SHV because of the always online requirement. I also want to vote for the options that I will buy it if/when that requirement is removed and I will not buy any of their future products that have this always online requirement. Sorry for screwing up.

yelrom treblig may I ask, did you not read some of the reviews and posts here about SH5?
I try to post the truth whenever I can about the game, so that newcomers like yourself know exactly what they'd spend their money on, and don't get fooled.

I don't like the on-line thigny, but I haven't purchased it because: no room on hard drive, I'm happy with my current sh (3/4) games, I barely play games anymore.
