Awesome

I've remembered another terrible game, the second Dark Sun:Shattered Lands game, Wake Of The Ravager. I loved the first one, but Ravager was so amazingly buggy that it was unplayable when released, and I still hit a bug that made it impossible to complete when I replayed it last year. Buggy releases are a pet hate of mine, and for old games they were a complete disaster because you couldn't just hop onto the internet and find a patch back then.
Heh.. I really tried to loved that game.. I really did. And of all people it was SSI, who for me had a perfect rep sheet before that. But there are things worse then that nowadays. Enter Dungeon Lords

- automap on the fritz
- can't choose the looks of the character
- you were lucky if the class selection worked
- multiplayer buggy beyond recognition (like a client crashing took also the server instance down.. exiting to the error recovery console with no reason..)
- some borked quests
- oh.. and a weird random encounter generator.. like meeting a mob of poisonous giant cobras in a city square
