Lol, the moderators claim it was deleted because it was "misleading".

:retarded:

E: after pointing out the inanity of that claim, the posts are all being restored. Eidos gonna have a baaad day.

This, and the way they've dealt with the slightest form of criticism or even doubts in the official forums, is almost as fucked up as how bad the game actually turned out to be. It's almost funny how beyond retarded Viktoria is, at least I get to laugh every time I see her "BANNED" tag on TTLG when I go there. Fucking disgusting old witch.

Who the fuck is Viktoria? Looks like fun.

The ludicrous amounts of nerdrage in this thread are fascinating. Has anyone actually tried playing this game, and has a valid opinion? Watching someone else's playthrough and exploding in butthurt is hardly worth consideration.

Why is the review misleading?

Because Reddit cannot into implicature:

Misleading: OP has not played game

First two sentences said:
This is my review of Thief: 2014. I have watched the game played from beginning to end, and I am thus qualified to speak on its failings and no amount of "we don't know for sure yet, just buy it and give it a chance!" will sway me.

Eidos astrobotted those Reddit submissions SO. FUCKING. HARD. I'm in awe.

EDIT: LOL, Reddit censored the review a second time and are deleting all the comments in the submission as well now.

The reviews were tagged as misleading because he never played the game and is judging based on a livestream. Not that that makes his review invalid though, he's still right.

She's a moderator on the Eidos forums, and is also batshit insane. She's an Eidos fanatic, approving and praising blindly every move from the company and editing out/banning most people that are too negative about their games. She abuses strawmen tactics when in discussion, reducing valid complaints about the game into negligible shit just to piss people off, and then bans them for getting aggressive. She also believes that nobody can not like Thief because its not out yet, therefore everyone's opinions are invalid. The forums also have a rule against bashing things, so even if you played the game, if you post that you hate it explicitly you get banned. Example: When we found out jumping was impossible in the new Thiaf, she said that's an improvement and anyone complaining is just because they want to bunnyhop around the game, which isnt immersive and therefore they're playing Thief wrong. Everyone got butthurt. She gave everyone infractions for getting butthurt - yeah, that's how she plays. Another bullshit that she loves to do is to merge complaint threads from newcomers (hey i dont like the looks of this game) into threads with 200+ pages, so the posts are never read. And then she bumps her Eidos-praising threads up, to make it look like nothing happened. She's the devil's advocate, agent of Decline and the physical representation of everything wrong with the Eidos forums.

She also gave me an infraction when i posted "i love you man, no homo". Reason? It was homophobic.

Edit: Zwanzig also wants to fuck her. Dont ask me why. Would be good though, maybe she's like that because of penis deprivation.

Eh man your infraction is insane. How dare this massive SJW use my favorite female character's name?
I usually stay away from official games forums because there are always terrible and retarded people like her and it gets on my nerves.

Sounds like Roguey. But Roguey at least pretend to have some class with her blind love to J.E. Sawyer. Viktoria don't even pretend, from what I've seen (and remember)

Imagine Roguey with mod rights. LOL.

I went to check out the rules to see if you could rules lawyer your way back in.

I see this: http://www.reddit.com/r/Games/wiki/rules

Look at that wall of text of rules. Why does any use reddit holy shit.
Click to expand...

Interestingly I never asked for upvotes anywhere, thus I am explicitly not guilty of vote manipulation. Of course, since Reddit is run as a defacto dictatorship I have no way to appeal the ban. Guess I'll just take this as the price of costing Eidos thousands in presales?

I've been straight IP banned from Reddit, trying to make a new account results in an instant shadowban.

Few days from now, /r Games will be flooded with complaints from people who preordered this thing, only to discover that it's shit, because they couldn't possibly have known...

It's the circle of life.
