Wow.. I hate to say it, but I wholeheartedly agree with you. I looked past the problems for the first month, hoping that a patch or something would take care of any issues.
However, Dan is a great guy, and I'm sure that Tom is as well. No need to wish physical harm on someone, because their game didn't live up to expectations.

All i can say is fuck you. Seriously.
Dan is a great guy, and so is Tom. Not to mention their entire staff list is composed of close friends who forked out their own money and time to make this game.
I was a member of Synj.net forums from the age of 14, and Dan has helped COUNTLESS people with animation, games, participated in forum projects and has even helped forum goers with personal issues.
I've worked with Tom, too. And he is also a fucking stand-up guy, who would help you out in a heartbeat if he psychically could. He is a professional with a friendly attitude who is more than glad to communicate with all of his fans.
You can seriously go fuck yourself for saying this bullshit over a game. You are wishing that these indie developers die because their game is broken? That a harpie rapes them? How fucking old are you?
Im not even defending the game. Yes, it is unfinished and broken and should not have been released until it was. But does that justify you being a COMPLETE fucking twat faced cunt?
No, it doesn't.
Go die in a fire.

There are a few problems with Castle Crashers, but it is still a great game. I don't know the developers personally, as Skribble does, but I'm sure they probably aren't cunts as you say they are.
They made an absolutely beautiful game, when I played it I loved it.

It sucks that the game was released with such game breaking bugs. Sure, Behemoth deserves some of the blame. But shouldn't we also be blaming Microsoft, whose QA didn't catch this? Microsoft, who hyped it as the headline of the summer of arcade? Do you think they would have been happy if a game breaking bug was discovered and their headline game was not released during summer at all?
Great Skribble. I'm glad you feel that way about them, but that doesn't excuse their shortcomings, which i did my best to point out while adding some humor and originality with my disgust for their success.
I actually had nothing bad to say about Dan, his artwork was solid. Tom for the most part made a good game but obviously fucked up somewhere. My point is really to shed light on this situation and the practices of The Behemoth. Printing out new figurines before their game is patched? BULLSHIT. Trying to sell a theme pack for 250 MS points? HORSESHIT. Sure they have enough time on their hands to make fan gear, how bout a game that fucking works?
They're the ones who can die in the fire and it's assholes comments like yours that defend their fuckups. In doing so, you are really just tossing more wood in their furnace.
By the way, I'm 22 and it was really nice to get out my frustration about the $15 I feel like I wasted on this game. Which I think justifies me being a "COMPLETE fucking twat faced cunt".

I just want to point out that games can win awards before release. Braid, for example, won the indie games festival award long before it launched. Not sure exactly what CC won, but it's possible.
Before we tear this guy a new one (or after, as the case may be), he has a point. While I'm sure that the folks at Behemoth have been working hard, both on the game and the patch, Castle Crashers really has been a tragically mishandled game. It's main selling point (online co-op) was horribly broken and defective, and it was littered with a number of potentially gamebreaking bugs and glitches. I lost all interest in playing it within a month of its release, mainly due to the bugs.
Had this gone the way it was supposed to, CC could've been a contender for game of the year. It didn't, and it isn't.

Making figurines is way easier than patching something, if you anything about programming you should know it.
Also, nobody wanted to release a broken game just to piss you off, the bugs are noticeable, but have happened to some people. In my case i have the game since it's release and still no bug with any of my characters or accounts.
They are working really hard on making a patch, and they are not and enterprise, they are just a small team that kept losing money on the development, i guess, that with the 72,xxx copies sold, they could earn the money they used and win a little. they did all this because they like to
also, that bugg that erases your character, when you notice it, just restart the game, if you make another char all will be erased. :3 it was posted on their blog and here too.
Thank you, now go die in a fire

It's one thing to criticize a company for it's shortcomings, it's a wholly different thing to wish death upon them for it. You're a fucking foul person, and although I partly agree that it is bullshit we don't have a patch for the game yet, that doesn't give you the right to say that they should die for it. They should die over a video game. All I can say is make your own god damn game since you seem to know so god damn much about how to do so and how to do it well.
The main rule of Dtoid is Don't Suck. First thing you do is fucking suck. Great way to start off!

Boo fucking hoo. You wasted $15 everyone have pity on you because you spent your money on something you think wasn't worth it. The fact is that if you were so frugal as to not have an expendable $15 lying around you should have done some fucking research as it was made quite clear that after browsing any CC-Related forums the DAY OF RELEASE you could hear people complaining about the online from a mile away. Yeah, I bought it on launch. Yeah, I was disappointed with the (lack of) online play. I still enjoyed the game, despite its flaws. You might disagree but I've spent money on so many things that aren't worth it it pains me to think about the waste of money; but, I get over it. As a side note, the online is completely Microsoft's fault, as they missed the fact that it could quite simply not play online. If this is how pissed you get about losing Fifteen goddamn dollars then I really don't want to be there the day you get screwed out of an actually large amount of money.
I never got the hype for this game. I've played it, but it wasn't my thang. But, uh yeah... It's just a game dube, don't be butt hurt and wish imaginary death on people who made a game that didn't live up to your expectations.
Every one of you needs a hug.

How odd that Castle Crashers is all over the blogs now, Heretic you trendsetter you :D
My opinion: Loved the game, a little disappointed the patch's taking so long but still patiently waiting. Also miffed that the game wiped my saves, but fuck it I can start over with a new knight anyways.

I don't really mind the second opinions, but will someone point out where I wish death upon them instead of imaginary terrible, foul sex with a legendary creature?
I was another person who jumped on early and bought the game before all the complaints about the brokenness of online coop. However, $15 is not breaking the bank and apparently they feel ok with collecting that amount of money and losing their integrity. While I do feel ripped off for getting such a buggy game for that price, I now know that I can't trust them. So no matter what other so-called God-sent of a game they prepare next that gets super-hyped up before release, I will not be there to buy it. Fool me once shame on...well you get the idea.
I'm not really sure if we know enough to blame one party over the other... but the fact of the matter is this game shouldn't have been released until it was ready.
Anyways, this was an entertaining read. Nice job.

I was up until a.m. waiting for the game to be released into the arcade... I read the blog and forums constantly picking up every scrap of information they devs would leave... This game was gonna be so awesome! And you know what? It fucking was...
I remember doing the forest stage with my sister, or beating the final boss with a friend, and seeing how it lasted about x4 what we thought it would. It was a shitload of fun.
But the game IS broken... And it is pretty shitty that they took so long to fix it. I dont think much people will go back and play it over with co-op enabled, and i havent experienced the game breaking glitch personally, but just imagining that happening to me pisses me off.
TL;DR
The game is fucking epic... But its broken, and has little replay value... Behemoth fucked up whit this.
This game should be > than all arcade (except Geometry wars).
Sadly this is not the case, and i can think of 5 games off the top of my head that i think are better.
