Default What do you feel about SH5 now?

Now, that some time has already passed, there was two patches released already, I think it's a good time to express your feelings about the latest SH5 title. Therefore, I propose a few possible answers:

1. I love this game, it's my dream come true!
2. It's not bad, it can be improved by UBI
3. It's not bad, it can be improved by modders
4. It's not bad, but it's not good either
5. It's a total fiasco
6. I haven't bought this game, but I will probably buy it
7. I haven't bought this game and I will probably not buy it

Maybe they are not totally covering the possible feelings about SH5, but at least, they can give us an idea about the perception of the game in this community after some time has already passed since the game was released. It can have some relevance. For example, we can make ourselves an idea about the numbers of potential customers UBI has lost, the numbers of customers totally satisfied by UBI, the trust that we have regarding UBI support in patches or some other interesting stuff. I know that most of you probably voted two moths ago in a similar poll, but I believe this is a better moment to do that. And I will not vote in this poll, I will let the others to do that, I don't want someone to say that I am trying to influence the final results.

Please note that this is a public poll, other users can see what you've voted (I think it's honest that way) and also that this poll is only for the game itself, not for the DRM stuff. And if you think that one choice of answer is not enough, you can select multiple ones, for example: "It's not bad, it can be improved by UBI" and "It's not bad, it can be improved by modders". The ones that are not afraid to take the responsibility of their answer, are invited to participate in this poll.

Thank you for your feedback in advance, gentlemen!

Until the DRM is eliminated the game can be pure gold and it will STILL be a case of a game company treating us like criminals and asking us to trust them to continue to run a miserly three servers. Trust is a two way street and I don't trust 'em. End of story.

If I understand right, you will not buy the game not because of its supposed bugs and other related gameplay problems, but because of the DRM. Thank you for your feedback.

Unchanged!

I'll support the game in my own way but UBI will not be getting money out of me for this diabolical release. It's been poor (to say the least) from it's concept.

I agree with Rockin, I will not buy the game simply because of DRM. I understand there are bugs in it (which only add to me not buying it) that mods might be able to fix. But the two key things for me is that #1 DRM and #2 Its half a game for Christ sake, you only play through 1943.....really? You people bought into it?

I was looking for the selection that describes my feelings, but didn't find it.

It's crap, but the modders just might be able to salvage it.

I voted as follows:

It's not bad, but can be improved by Ubi.

It's not bad, but can be improved by modders.
