Hmm, I just did make the biggest mistake of the year, and because the year is just beginning, also last year.
I installed the patches.
What is wrong with that you ask? let me explain it in chronological order.
- I buy the game, and despite a lot of people complaining about the bugs in it, it runs silky smooth for me. So I'm a happy person.
- I install the first patch, (the separate one, not the one at release), some minor glitches are happening together with a little bit of stuttering during cutscenes. So I'm still a happy person, and certainly after the hot fix for the shiny hair.
- I install the third pat..... wait a second, let me check BSN. ... alright, I wait a bit to see if there is some workaround for the patch
.
- I play the game while in offline modus (I did cancel the patch download). So I'm a happy person.
- I decided after a while that I would take the risk installing the patches (I have to ask, WHY is it a risk to install something that is supposed to fix something???)
- I can't hit myself hard enough with anything, because the game doesn't even start now I have installed the patches.
How does a game goes from perfectly playable to not running at all in 1 patch?? I have no idea.
To say I am a bit upset right now is an understatement.
PS. Anyone knows how to de-install a patch?
