Coolster: Cause i remember back in the day that you had to take down Moto Racer 2 because of some game breaking bugs till they we're fixed. This thing still has button prompts broken so it's downright unplayable during QTE sequences (unless you like the extra challenge of guessing button prompts during your first time). If the patch is coming soon (which i doubt it does) can we have some ETA?
Most of the time it's just 'A' button I think, at least I don't remember having any problem with QTEs, I only had to forget about doing advanced attacks. At least I saved money for the trainer.
And only button prompts for controller are broken, they work for keyboard/mouse. It's less convenient, I rather kept guessing than to learn k+m, but at least one of the reviews states that DS2 is fine on keyboard (as opposed to DS1 which is supposed to be almost unplayable without controller). Can't confirm either from personal experience, but I did finish it with controller, even with the broken prompts.
So... it is annoying and stupid bug that shouldn't take more than a week to fix for any marginally competent developer. It's a regression FFS, just go back a few versions and find out which commit exactly broke it (they ARE using version control, right??). I guess that the delay is because they are trying to fix too many things at once, not because it is hard to fix this one. Which in turn may be caused by the fact that GOG process for publishing new version is more complicated than they are used to from Steam, and they don't want to go through it more times than absolutely necessary. At least I would feel like that if I were in their shoes.
Karkinos bug is far worse, but it only affects some players, hard to judge how widespread it is.
Still, game is far from broken or "downright unplayable". Original DS2 edition for all owners would be nice of them (I still have mine because I owned it before it became deathinitive, but the saves are not backwards compatible, and I like how the loot works in deathinitive). And ETA for unbroken prompts would be nice too, no argument there, my NG+ is still waiting.
