The Playstation Version is AWFUL and You Should Be Ashamed

Abysmal. Bug-ridden mess you had absolutely no business releasing in the shoddy state that it’s in. Chat doesn’t even work. Hotkeys don’t work. Settings reset on game close STILL. .The MINIMAP! My God, the minimap. Look at this and tell me “this is acceptable”:

And that’s just the start with the minimap. It’s nearly half the games! Ridiculous!

Chat is an exercise in futility. For some reason you can’t integrate a real chat system (like many others do) so you bungled this like no other, not just with the Sony pop-up keyboard, so instead of getting to chat after matches I get random hex error codes. What were you thinking? “Gonna get that money!” Appalling. Mongols want to use hotkeys for ovoo double production? Think again; start clicking. I’m honestly shocked it even works. I fire up the game? Settings reset. Why are the defaults so absurdly stupid? Who thought “select and center” EVERYTHING was what people would want out of the package? I want to keep my privacy? TS, because I’m right back to “ONLINE” every single time, so it’s good to know privacy was never a concern either.

Even basic QoL doesn’t exist. Disable the ESC key? Disable right-click to garrison? Absolutely not.

You had no business releasing this in this condition. You’ve proven yourselves time and time again to be completely and totally inept, and much like AoE2 STILL NOT LETTING USERS CUSTOMIZE MULTI-KEY HOTKEYS SINCE APRIL - what an absolute joke of a company - I expect nothing to change.

I’m going to see if I can’t write this off on my taxes, because nearly $200 in awful product later, this was nothing short of charity.
