I would play this game... if I can even use it! Right off the bat, it's been rife with issues, be it graphically or just the sheer amount of lag. Turning off the #irc chat right off the bat, plus disabling full screen, and running things on Very Low don't help very much. All I see graphically is a pink screen- and while there are "fixes" out there, I tried them all; I uninstalled and reinstalled the two drivers, made sure my graphics driver was up to date, uninstalled/reinstalled the game, and even prayed to Ganesh. Nothing worked, and so I gave up on trying anything else.

If you have an older computer like I do, don't buy this game. I can't tell you for sure how it runs on a newer computer, but on this computer I'm using (10 year old Win 7, 6GB RAM, 1TB HDD) it doesn't work.

This game is really fun. It's a bit like a more interactive AdVenture Capitalist. I like how every faction caters to a certain play style.

One improvement that can be made is the tooltips are bugging constantly. Perhaps this is something to be remedied in the future?

I bought this controller because for some reason the XBOX ONE controller wouldn't comply with my Windows 10 laptop. I use it to play games that were originally released for the console (in other words, Final Fantasy) and the controller works terrifically. I don't really use it much outside of that, but it does respond well.

I thought the design would feel a little weird and it really does; it is easy to get used to though.

Overall, it's a neat controller. I plan on using it with Stardew Valley once there's a good control map for it.

I'm absolutely addicted to this game. It's very similar to the browser-based game Cookie Clicker, if you're familiar with that. I recommend playing it in a windowed mode; it seems to do better as a windowed game rather than full-screen. I've logged over 500 hours in this game, which isn't hard to do. It does have a great deal of replayability value, but be warned: it's easy to become addicted.

I love the comics behind the Darkness series. I first played this game on the XBOX before buying it on sale on Steam. It's a good game, but I found it to be clunky overall.
