    It's obviously going to get review-bombed to hell and back, given how many online enemies Cleve has built up over the decades, but I guess it remains to be seen if this has an impact on sales given Grimoire has built up a level of exposure/notoriety/drama way beyond other one-man indie titles. But at least the butthurt Goons are helping Cleve sell the game to those on the fence:

    It's like Temple OS, only it took longer to be released and is buggier.

    This game is bound to encapsulate the deluded hope for the rebirth of rpgs. Blinding (ironic?) hype built up for years, and the inevitable and crashing realization of ugly, buggy and unfinished mediocrity.

    Grimoire's concurrent players has already blown Panic! at Mulitverse High's out of the water. Looks like there's more of a market for blobbers than non-romantic visual novels with bad art. :cool:

    The mixed reviews are completely expected. Cleve's so polarizing of course any game he'd make would be as well.

    The Era of Grimoire the Unreleased has ended.

    So this is how it feels, to finally grow old.

    Funny how the vast majority of the positive reviews; even by Codexers; were made by people who stopped playing the game BEFORE the 2 hour refund cutoff mark was reached.


    Makes you think.......

    Grimoire is struggling to catch up to Dream Daddy Dating Simulator....cutthroat competition.

    Cleve should have waited for a quieter period.

    I'm just glad to see that it's finally out and can now go through its second stage of life. Cleve may be many things, but he's such an egotistical autist that you can bet he will OCD over every little thing from here on out and continue to support and update his 20+ year old legacy project.
