NEStalgia

impossible to play game due to deactivation of server. " should not be listed for sale.

Cant link my steam account with my Byond account. Cant play the game. No support

WARNING: Game appears to be broken and lacks support to resolve. Install / First Launch instructions are incomplete, contain bad hyperlinks, use unsecured websites, and the launcher seems to be too outdated to work with STEAM. At this time, it appears NEStalgia is a broken and abandoned product. STEAM customers are strongly encouraged to assess the risks before purchasing.

It's probably possible to play if you jump through enough hoops, but having to make an account to log into the launcher for a game whose online servers haven't been up in over six years, with three active private servers with no players, and not being able to make a singleplayer "server" because I don't own the game, is enough of a put off for me to not want to bother. There might be a diamond somewhere underneath the muck, but personally, there's a whole lot of effort required to make it function and i just don't think it's worth it.

abandonware. do not purchase.

This game WAS fun, and previously deserved the hype it had, because there WAS a lot of potential in it. But the game is dead, no updates, no bug fixes, game lost a good portion of its content. It simply isnt worth the money to buy the game today. It USED to be worth it, I know I've put in a LOT of hours into the game, even before it came to Steam. As sad as it is, games like this should be archived and removed from listings if its in a state like this. It could be played solo, somewhat, but it was always designed as a 3 player MMORPG, with monster companions being added to hold out on the dwindling player base.
