...the ability to raise the dead appears to be missing from the store page description.
I've looked at this game many times and then assumed that I can't raise the dead in a game called Hands of Necromancy because of that store page.
It just happened again.
This is like having a game called 'Billy shoots his gun at alien frogs', and the store page says 'Join Traci as she pets a pony'.
MAYBE Billy shoots his gun at alien frogs in the game, but I'm not risking playing that game even if it's free, because time is a resource too.
And that's exactly what's happening here and why I've never bought this game - even though I'd LOVE to run around boomer-shootering with a team of raised skellies at my side.
Whoever wrote the store blurb doesn't understand what people look for when they buy a game.
Maybe I can raise the dead. Maybe I can't. I'll never know because if you guys can't even do a simple blurb properly, why would I expect the game to explain anything?
Yes I know that the dev probably didn't write the blurb. But they most likely signed off on it, so my point stands.

Now wonder about how many people feel exactly like this but didn't post.
Yes, I could've just asked. But I want the information *while the iron is hot*.
Not 'maybe eventually, possibly never'.
Yes, I could've googled it in the time it took me to type this out.
I like typing my thoughts on the internet, so that's not a problem for me. That's enjoyable times.
I do not like doing unpaid research for things that should've already been stated clearly. That's unenjoyable times.
BIG difference.

'Well you could've assumed-'
Too many game store pages are outright lies and you know it.
Assuming things in modern gaming can only lead to disappointment.
