Greetings Hiverians of the Blockchain constellation, this isand as always, I come in peace, I hope you have had an excellent week, today I want to talk once again about Lost Light (although it will not be the last time I do it), you know, this game that has a very similar style to "Escape from Tarkov" with the biggest distinctive which is that it is simply F2P, however there was something of which I was not aware and I wanted to make it clear about it especially for those who had no idea what happened as well as me.
The gifs in this post were made and edited by me taken directly from the gameplay video.
Hay algo que hacen en este tipo de juegos cada cierto tiempo, más bien en todos los juegos y es que normalmente se tiene que hacer una actualización periódica, bien sea para mejorar la calidad, corregir errores, fortalecer la seguridad del juego o bien tapar agujeros de seguridad en el software, servidores, etc, básicamente optimizar todo para que el juego funcione correctamente en todo sentido, dependiendo del juego esto pasará cada semana o mes, a veces la frecuencia varía dependiendo del problema que haya o las cosas que vayan agregando, en resumidas cuentas, Lost Light no se escapa de estas medidas, me ha tocado actualizarlo unas 4 veces desde que lo tengo tanto en la PC como en mi Smartphone.
To begin with, it is assumed that the game was not officially released for any platform, in fact, as such had more than a year in a kind of open beta that was gradually spreading worldwide, I say so because apparently it was released by a region at a time to reach everyone, probably the region of "North America" was the last, in short, it is not until September 1 that is officially released, I imagine they refer to something like version 1. 0 after a lot of data collected from users who were playing this kind of open beta and that helped them to improve the quality of the game.
There is something that they do in this type of games every so often, rather in all games and is that usually you have to make a periodic update, either to improve the quality, fix bugs, strengthen the security of the game or plug security holes in the software, servers, etc., basically optimize everything so that the game works properly in every way, depending on the game this will happen every week or month, sometimes the frequency varies depending on the problem or the things they are adding, in short, Lost Light does not escape from these measures, I have had to update it about 4 times since I have it both on the PC and on my Smartphone.
En conclusión, sólo quería expresar el hecho de que no sabía xd, aunque me desagrada :c, pero ya que, supongo que volveré a empezar y trataré de abastecer mi refugio lo más que pueda de ahora en adelante, sólo espero que no vuelva a pasar, pero quien sabe, quizás haya buenas razones para hacerlo, a pesar de todo sigo pensando que el juego promete, ojalah en los próximos meses se gane la popularidad que se merece puesto que se nota el esmero y cariño de los desarrolladores, así como el cariño que yo noto de parte de ustedes cuando no se les olvida dejar su delicioso voto y hacer un comentario más abajo para deconstruir más el tema, yo mientras me despido de ustedes deseándoles una excelente semana, una vez más dice adiós.
The point I want to get to is about something I didn't know about this specific game since it's the first time it happens to me and it's that when I open the game not only asks me to update, but my data is reset, all my progress was at 0 (now I understand the comment that pusen made :v), what happens is that I didn't know about the "Wipe", apparently this had been done a couple of times before, but I wasn't aware :c, from what I understood, in terms of online video games, "Wipe" means that they reset all the data and start again from 0 with a new version, although according to the page I should not update the game as such, but I had to uninstall the old version to reinstall it but in its official version, I guess the word "Wipe" to this procedure fits very well.
In conclusion, I just wanted to express the fact that I didn't knew it xd, even though I dislike it :c, but what can I do, I guess I'll start over and try to stock my shelter as much as I can from now on, I just hope it won't happen again, but who knows, maybe there are good reasons to do so, despite everything I still think the game has promise, ojalah in the next months it will gain the popularity it deserves since the care and affection of the developers is noticeable, as well as the affection I notice from you when you don't forget to leave your delicious vote and make a comment below to deconstruct more the theme, meanwhile I say goodbye to you wishing you an excellent week, once againsays goodbye.
