Some players are even threatening to close their accounts if this unwanted breast reduction nerf isn’t rolled back.

Dark Messiah looked like it would be a great edition to the M&M legacy….it’s not. Sure the graphics are stunning. Great spell effects, plenty of splattering blood, very detailed monsters and environments.

One of the bashers was one Cooper Lawrence, an author who put in her $0.02 on the subject without actually knowing anything about the game or it’s contents.
