I'll admit I haven't been following this game too closely or been too hyped up for it but I have a modest interest in the franchise, so when I loaded up DEAD OR ALIVE® 5 Last Round's Steam Store page to check it out today my first reaction was a bit shock at it's "Mixed" User Reviews. So I spent some time reading the user reviews and saw the same things pointed out over and over. A quick list:
-PC version uses a frankenport hybrid of the Arcade and PS3 version, not the PS4 version
-Missing 2 Versus Stages
-Doesn't have online mode yet (and may not for up to 3 months)
-No Steam Cloud support
-No Steam Achievements
-Wonky controller set-up that doesn't even support vibration
-Save files tied to your steam community ID making your saves invalid if you change your steam name
-Lack of Soft Engine from the PS4 version that adds higher graphic fidelity to the skin textures
-Poor optimization
While I've heard very little critical of the game itself, in fact even these negative reviews claim the core gameplay is still fun and the game overall is good but it's incredibly hard to overlook this very poorly done PC port.
So what are your thoughts on yet another in a long list of terrible PC ports done by AAA publishers?
