Please refund me. The fact that I can't even play it now is a bit shocking. I paid for a real time strategy game with a nice campaign that I could PvP. Now I can't do neither. You guys scammed me, you scammed everyone else who bought it. Refund us.

Again, which there was a neutral recommendation, but what I played (for free) I was happy with some points that should be made clear: - I do not care or really play multiplayer, or skirmish, that is more for a game I am invested in, which currently is not this game. - I only heard about this game because it had bad press. - I only played this game because I love old RTS style games. - I came into this game expecting it to be very negative from the other reviews. - I only played the three story missions, I did not pay for any of the paid stories. ultimately, I came for the campaign, which is admittedly (for free) ok to good, with a lot of room for improvement. what I liked: - story kept me playing, which can be a hit or miss for games like this. But would neither say the story is good or bad, it is just good enough to keep playing, but not enough to pay $37 (AUD) for the other 9 missions. - The game has the same (but budget) style as Starcraft 2, with a similar (again budget) version of their campaign. (which considering a lot of the team that worked on this game came from there, it should be no surprise). - Base building and unit control, and general game play is very much what …
