Blood Bowl 3 is shaping up for a disastrous launch—and the microtransactions are seriously dodgy too.
ready for you by now, but that's proved impossible. In part because of a brief review period that included significant server outages and no less than three resets of my save, but also because the game is too fundamentally broken to make meaningful progress. With its release date coming up fast on Thursday, I've got serious concerns about the state of the game at launch.
Fans have been waiting a long time for this. Announced in 2020, it was originally planned for release in early 2021—but despite a two-year delay, it's still sorely unfinished. The review build feels like something just about ready for Early Access, not a 1.0 release. But there are much more serious issues. For example, when the game hits what I call 'decision points'—moments when an action triggers a choice for you or your opponent, such as whether to use a dice re-roll or a special ability—it can take minutes to resolve while you sit there staring at a frozen pitch. And that's if you're lucky.
The game defaults to being always online, even for singleplayer, and you have to create an account on their server to play. If you want to go offline you can, but everything is totally separate—none of your progress or teams carry over between the two. That's awkward enough even without the frequent account problems and server instability I've run into so far.
