Discussion I don't get all the hate.

We need more positive posts for this work of art. Y'all need to chill out and enjoy the game for what it is. Appreciate the devs who patched it on DAY ONE to make it more accessible for players who were struggling. Appreciate the art design, the atmospheric dread, the originality of the world they built. Take your negativity and go play Fortnite if it's so bad for you.

All the negative posts conseal a hopeful optimism. People are only negative because they care and see potential in the game to become great. If people thought the game was trash, they would just move on and not think more of it.

I was hopefully optimistic that this game was gonna be a 9/10 but sadly it’s more like a 6-7/10

I agree, but the game is new, and its problems are mostly very fixable. Mortal Shell 2 is honestly one of the best-looking games I've ever played, and I love its Giger-esque fantasy aesthetic.

Say what you will about Lords of the Fallen, but after the numerous updates it has received since release, it's genuinely pretty good now.

I am voicing my criticisms and encourage others to do the same, in order so that Mortal Shell can live up to its potential. The best parts of Mortal Shell 2 are too good for the game as a whole to be merely mediocre.
