Hi everyone! Well, I bought DBC17 game and as someone who played DBC 14 almost on a daily basis for the last two years and was eagerly awaiting for the latest version to release I must say I feel a little let down. The fact that I chose this discussion to begin my contribution to the forum is largely due to the fact that I felt passionately about the game. However, I have a number of issues with this game and feel that it has regressed rather than progressed. The commentary is dull, the player animations look extremely dodgy, shot animations are way too vague and nothing like the clean polished strokes from DBC 14. The cut screens and camera movements just do not capture the ground and field as it should. They are extremely monotonous. These are only my first impressions but are sadly enough to question my decision to spend nearly 4K to buy the game.
To me this is pretty similar to what I felt when BLC was updated in mid 2000s. That game went from a Classic to a really weak one. I know some people value gameplay more than the look of it but I think both are important because you can't keep playing a game which looks jerky and half done. I am seriously thinking of returning this to the retailer and at the moment deciding on what could be the excuse for doing that. Maybe I could say the game crashes which it actually did the first time I played after installing the update.
So, that's my opinion of DBC 17 after playing a couple of games. I know some would not agree with me but I just had to be honest. I sincerely wished this to be a great game but this is not the game I so loved which still remains DBC 14.
