About Gamersyde
Gamersyde is a commercial multiplatform web portal based in Europe, with hundreds of thousands of visitors each month from all over the world. We cover both handheld and video games platforms and the site has grown into one of the biggest gaming sites in the continent. We are able to offer fast news delivery and HD content from the upcoming games, and one of the greatest and friendliest gaming communities in the world. The HD content we provide always respects the original resolution and framerate of the games we capture, making Gamersyde the one and only place to get 1080p/4K/60fps videos with high bitrate. At a time when Youtube's subpar video compression has become the norm for most people on the Internet, we refuse to give up quality without a fight. We now also produce HDR videos, which can only be enjoyed by those who own compatible televisions. The content we produce is obviously not free of use should you want to upload our videos on your own website or YouTube channel.

Since 2636 DaysThe first impression is the one that counts the most a lot of times, and with a AA game like this which didn't have the notoriety and/or awareness as a AA title like Hellblade, for example, that first impression and the word of mouth are extremely important.
The fact that they released it in such an awful state, instead of waiting for it to be polished enough to be released - whether the decision of the developer or the publisher, doesn't alter the result - means they basically sent this game to die.
Which is a shame, since there's 303 user reviews on Steam and it has a Very Positive rating with 86% Positive reviews. So clearly it's a good game, but this mentality of releasing unpolished games with extremely clear technical bugs should be over by now.
I will check this game mainly because of your news post, the very positive user reviews and the studio, which is definitely not famous, I never ever hear Pendulo Studios mentioned in anything. Never. Even Daedalic Entertainment is more famous.
I only recognized the name because of the Runaway trilogy, The Next Big Thing and Yesterday. Which to be fair even then it still took me quite a while to remember what the developers had released before.
I don't know how well they are recognized in France, but in the rest of the world I doubt anyone ould even know that it is a games studio. Which is an absolute shame as Runaway 3 and The Next Big Thing are truly great games, well worth playing for Adventure and/or Story fans.
Since 2636 DaysAlternatively, The Next Big Thing is an original story, so would be the best place to check the studio's quality. And if that intrigues anyone, they can check their other games.
