It's a fine game fucked up by two things
1) Totally greedy and stupid pricing system
It wanted to be both F2P and B2P. Why does a 60$ game have gameplay microtransactions?
It should have been a 30$ game with everything just there for you. It would have sold great and there'd have been far less complaints.
2) The basic design made people unhappy. So you have the monster trying to run around and feed until he gets big enough to wipe the hunters. The issue is that since the gameplay means that the final level is a reward for avoiding the hunters, it needs to be very powerful. Powerful enough to be worth the effort of the boring gameplay up until that point. And that feels like total shit for the hunters since they feel like they're losing just be playing the game.
In my opinion, the way the game should have been design is that the monster only gets evolve points for hurting hunters. He can kill wildlife for health and armour, but evolving requires conflict with the hunters.
That way the hunters feel like they're involved with the process of the hunter's evolution.

call me oldschool but it still lets a bitter taste in my mouth when a dev releases day one a shit ton of DLCs (cosmetics and shit) alongside with the actual game. that's what they did with evolve and that's why i looked the other way when it got released
>game not even out yet
>$200 worth of DLC
>game build around more DLC

Launched at full price for minimal content, you need friends and good communication to play it, for most players it's hard to come back from a disadvantageous situation, the hunters have dick all to do until the monster decides to fight
the devs completely shit the bed in terms of publicity with the dlc thing. that lead to it having no players. no players means no one else will want to play as well, even if the game is good.
>TRUE VALUE $134.99!!!
Not op, but i find it hilarious how everyone only points out DLC when this game is mention, as if they didn't even play it.
DLC was made after the game released, if you don't want it don't buy it, the game was fine and solid on it's own.

No it wasn't, it had day one dlc

>DLC was made after the game released
Really negro?
Because there was a shit ton available at launch.

You're on point with that second issue. My biggest gripe with the game was how easy it was to just avoid the hunters when playing as the monster. Not just prior to getting caught, but even when you actually DO get put into the arena, there is absolutely zero incentive for the monster to actually engage the hunters unless you're feeling confident you can take one of them down. Abusing the terrain and just stalling for time made it boring as hell for hunters because they really couldn't do anything to the monster unless he wanted to be a good sport, or if he was just retarded. The pace of the game is entirely in the hands of the monster, if you want to reach level 3 and just wipe the hunters out easily then you could do that with very little effort. Harpoons and all those things didn't accomplish jack shit.
Also, loading times were fucking atrocious, it was not unusual to have a session where you had more time looking at loading screens and scripted events than actual gameplay.

Because the only fun part of L4D was the coop campaign, not this dumb versus shit.
