I´m really glad you took these comments serious enough to make a fair compromise.
I will happly change this review the second it is implemented.
We already discussed it and we will make adventure made available in offline mode, howeveer you will miss daily quests, leaderboards etc... but I think it's understandable.
Also the characters are not lost. There's a sync issue at some users, but we are working on it.
also claiming "Nowadays, most games require online connection, as, let's face it, we pretty much have internet anytime, anywhere." i mean...really? it is not OUR internet we have to worry about, it is YOUR internet we have to worry about.
i mean i dont know if you have been into the news or anything lately but russia is considering cutting the cables used to have internet around the world....man it is a damn good thing you guys will be able to access your own servers should that happen! because there is no way anyone not on your own land mass will be able to connect to play the same content they were just playing...
also my internet works just fine, so it isnt my "internet" that prevented my saves from saving...just saying...
look, i like neocore, i think in general you guys are a pretty good team.
I am just disapointed that you have decided to butcher your own game with online only content that was made availble throughout the franchise.
it makes no sense and makes your game literally an "online only" game as you cannot experience the full product unless you are online.
sure if you want to have special events and daily challenges, you can do that, hell it would even make sense to have that be restricted to online only as it would require a connect to a server to make that stuff happen...but to take the entire end-game content and remove it from offline play? that is messed up and there is no defending that.
especially when it has always been playable up till now while completely offline in van helsing 1, 2, and 3 (without even having a distinction between online and offline characters....)
The online/offline distinction is simply there because of two main reasons:
1. Offline characters are easy to mess with. (Cheating)
2. Scenario mode simply has to have online connection, because certain elements of the game are global (e.g. events that are the same for all the players) and simply require net connection in order to sync these stuff for all players simultaneously.
If you can live without the Scenario mode, feel free to choose an offline character, but note that because of reason 1, there is no transfer between online and offline mode.
Nowadays, most games require online connection, as, let's face it, we pretty much have internet anytime, anywhere.
