Hardcore Gamer: It was with a heavy heart that I had to issue Black Forest Games’ Rogue Stormers a 3/5 last week based on the review copy that was given. The game showed so much promise when I played it at PAX and the Early Access version was really, really good. Knowing the drive to excellence that the team at Black Forest Games demonstrates, I knew this would not be the final result of the product. I was correct, but the fix for the major issue occurred even sooner than expected. The title launched out of Early Access on April 21. It was patched on April 22.
