Posts from Sacred Haven of Debauchery Auto-translated

To be honest, both LKI and Psmit, in particular, made me facepalm more than once. Due to the categorical, schoolboy-like tone in the walkthrough, and the numerous mistakes. Due to the overall style of the articles, which felt like "lol, I'm writing a walkthrough." Due to the ridiculous terminology, when the writer decides to show off their linguistic skills and, while posting screenshots from the English version, comes up with their own clumsy translations. Due to the ridiculous terminology, when the screenshots show the OFFICIAL LOCALIZATION FROM 1C, and therefore the article uses this awful, inadequate translation.

Well, you probably haven't read the mail section yet; there's a real treat in there.

I only ever had two or three complete issues of the magazine throughout its entire run, and they were from the mid-2000s. There wasn't anything particularly noticeable about the content at the time; it was on par with other publications. Did it really decline so much over time?

Did he really become that cynical over time?

Sometimes you come across some pretty amusing responses. For example:
Approximate text of the letter:
"I am unhappy that you gave the game the maximum rating. Especially since games that are better might come out!"
Response:
"The rating is given at the present time; it is possible that better games will come out later, which will also receive the highest rating."

I think it's unnecessary to say that this makes the ratings of previously reviewed games "irrelevant," because they were good "at that time," according to this logic.

And there are various letters where they explain "for what reason" so much magazine space was devoted to WoW.

REVIEWS ARE BOUGHT

This is the best-case scenario; I always hope for the best. Because otherwise, it's just blatant dishonesty. For example, they gave the Witcher a 99% rating for meeting expectations (or something similar), but in my opinion, it doesn't deserve that, and frankly, very few things deserve such high praise. But what can you do?

REVIEWS WERE PURCHASED

Not exactly. They gave high ratings to Eador, as well as Vesnot. The creator of the first game probably wouldn't have had enough money, and I don't think it's worth talking about the second one.

Not everyone, you know. Just the latest marketing hype.
And as for appreciating indie games, when elitism is already ingrained, Psmith himself commanded it.

That's it. I've completed both stories, and they weren't very good, although the second one was better than the one about the valley. I played for about two or three weeks, and I got tired of it.

HW has earned the money, the newspaper will be out soon...

Sky said that in the evening it will be as usual. He is a lazy cucumber.

Now there are two Hexalizov!

Yes, that’s right, my friend Steel.

My brother also registered here on HeroesWorld. He never left a single message, never read anything, forgot his password, and that was the end of it.
