A gamer showing signs of frustration with a game screen displaying freezing and corruption issues

A growing wave of players is expressing frustration with Aeternumโ€™s latest game, reporting significant technical glitches and corrupted save files that undermine their gaming experiences. This controversy has intensified following an incident where a player found their hard-earned game progress wiped out.

The Frustration Unfolds

Following a recent session, one player found themselves at a loss after reaching a major gameplay point. They reported,

"Just got past the Light Tower/Sword fight, got the arrows, saved, corrupted. Very nice."

Despite enjoying the game initially, the consistent freeze-ups in cutscenes quickly turned into a major letdown.

Common Themes Among Players

  1. Corrupted Saves: Users noted that save files often became corrupted, leading to lost progress.

  2. Time Investment: Many voiced frustration over investing significant time only to face technical setbacks.

  3. Replay Costs: A strong sentiment exists against spending money on a product that doesnโ€™t function as expected, with some players unwilling to repurchase the game on a new device.

Player Reactions Are Mixed

Some find joy in the experience despite the setbacks. One commenter stated,

"Itโ€™s such an amazing game but there are problems on Switch."

Yet, another echoed the larger sentiment, saying,

"Iโ€™m glad to know that Aeternum just takes our money"

Key Points to Note

  • ๐Ÿ—ฃ๏ธ "I work 50+ hours a week, and Iโ€™m raising a kid by myself" - A concerned player

Curiously, while some players consider switching platforms for a better experience, many are hesitant to double-down on their financial commitment to Aeternum.

As players demand fixes, the conversation around technical quality and company accountability continues to grow. In the meantime, those affected by glitches face the tough road of potential reinstallations, as they seek the gaming experience they originally purchased.
