WTMG's Thomas Medina: "Book of Demons is a clever twist on what’s admittedly a very safe genre. While everything looks to work the same as you’d expect, the card and movement systems really do change things up. Not to mention the Flexiscope system, which gives you the ultimate flexibility in playing how you want as well. The real highlight for me though were the callbacks and references to the first Diablo. It felt like going back home and finding everything just where you left it. That the developers managed to channel that feeling without coming off as a knockoff is a testament to their knowledge of the genre and the strength of their personal twists to it."
Indie action RPG Book of Demons is currently being review-bombed on Steam due to its support of the Ukraine
This should not be happening. I've just read Cd projeck red is stopping selling games in Russia belerus. I don't see how punishing the average Joe who hasn't made the decision n for war makes a difference
Can we please not post any threads like this,
That’s the whole point, whether people care to admit it or not. There is a clear push for the western media to get involved in sanctions. Which as we’re all well aware in no way whatsoever effects the relevant people or directed at those involved but instead at ordinary civies.
It’s to further destabilise civilian life within Russia creating further tension and pressure. All part of the modern day propaganda war machine. You notice there was none of this when America and the UK were bombing countries, stating the same reasons as Russia is doing now. I suppose one thing Putin has nailed is showing us all what double standards we have.
I think it's to do with something else. The backlash has been the most overkill I've ever known including banning of Russian blue cats!!!
It's been well known for a while there's dodgy bio labs all over Ukraine and even ppl like Biden was involved in it before the USA elections especially his son.
Now the map of the alleged bio labs that western elites are tied up in. When you overlay the initial Russian strikes it appears Putin has taken all these out from the get go. Fascinating if true
The globalists elite must be set to loose billions hence such a big backlash. I think Putin took these out deliberately.
Overall horrible for everyone involved 😔
PS check out the overkill in the press to downplay the bio labs opinion passing it off as false.
So from Father Merrins comments across multiple Ukraine posts here I've learned we've got bio labs, nazis in control of a country led by a Jewish man, the whole thing was funded by Biden and it's a project of the globalist elite. Anything else you want to add to that? I'm sure 5G, Bill Gates and chemtrails have got to be involved too!
It punishes their economy. If the citizens can’t participate in buying and selling, the government suffers as a result.

It has actually costed the oligarchy 10s of billions so far.

Ermm, countries around the world have frozen 60% of Russia's central bank reserves. Thats bound to make paying for a long drawn out war very difficult while also trying to counter the economic war (sanctions) that is being waged against them.
Sure it sucks that regular people will get caught in the middle but it will be putting a lot of pressure on the government too.
Yeah, it really sucks for the Russians that they're losing access to some games. That's the opinion we should be projecting...
... As we type from our phones/computers, sitting in our homes/offices, NOT being invaded/attacked/killed by Russians!
***I don't see how punishing the average Joe who hasn't made the decision n for war makes a difference***
Economic issues solve wars faster than bombs. That's why we live in a world of sanctions and whatnot.
People are dying in Ukraine for a completely unjustifed invasion. Its more important to take actions in hope of stopping that than some Russian folks inconvenience.
"How are you better than Hitler?"
Probably the not killing or invading other countries.
Killing? All countries are guilty.
Invading? All cultures are guilty.
Just saying.
Hitler's bug thing wasn't the killing or invading but the ideology. His ideology of a superior race, culture and way if thinking.
Same ideology infesting mainstream media. Only one type of thinking allowed. Everything else is evil and must be blocked and deplatformed.
Hitler murdered millions and invaded nearly all of Europe. Was it based in ideology? yes. If you actually think maintstream media is similar to Hitler you need to read a history book, or seven. I can't think of a time where mainstream media has started a world war. Also, what the hell is mainstream media? Fox? CNN? NYT? NPR?
None of those are the same way of thinking.
"Hitler's bug thing wasn't the killing or invading but the ideology".
No, the big thing about Hitler was his killing and invading.
Last I checked, this developer isn't a country and hasn't done any of that. So, my answer still stands since the question was aimed at the developer and not a government.
Killing and invading were Hitler's thing. Just because he was obsessed with a master race doesn't mean he didn't want to conquer the world.

From Xfire: "The words "dungeon crawler" are defined as a genre of role-playing games wherein "heroes navigate a labyrinth environment, battling various monsters, avoiding traps, solving puzzles, and looting any treasure they may find."
Now, if you, just like every other gamer, thought immediately of any of the Diablo games when you read that, you're probably not alone.
The thing is, the Diablo franchise has been synonymous with dungeon crawlers since 1997. But while the Diablo titles have long been considered the most popular dungeon crawlers, they're far from the only ones that are worth playing."
Gears 5, Metro 2033 Redux, and Book of Demons are available for Xbox Live Gold and Xbox Game Pass Ultimate members to play from Thursday, December 10 at 12:01 a.m. PST until Sunday, December 13 at 11:59 p.m. PST.
Why are free play days stuck behind paywalls? Seems odd to limit the audience that could demo the game & might ultimately buy it - the whole point of these free play events.
As much as I love this game, the price just seems a little too steep. :(
I really just don't get this game. I think it is very straightforward, and incredibly boring. I obviously don't think my opinion is the "right" opinion for everyone, but it is weird when you can't understand what others see in something. Normally I can dislike something and still manage to see where others are coming from. This game just feels like an on rails clicker or something. I really don't get it.
