But you released a paid game without performance to your standards? Weird.
The developers are mostly blameless, Paradox forced the premature launch.
Paradox as a publisher seems to pull this shit a lot. Was really looking forward to Lamplighter's League, but the buggy mess that it released in shows very clearly that Paradox shoved it out the door before QA had some serious time with it.
They don't do this shit with their in-house games, seems to be an issue with them as a publisher.
I'm glad it's not just me. Gave LLL an honest try last weekend and couldn't be bothered to play more than an hour and a half.
Felt barebones and the story was not captivating
who said it wasn't to their standards
They did. They said the game wasn't meeting their performance targets.

Just lower your standards. Problem fixed.
