Congratulations to everyone at Valve on creating Dark Carnival!
This has been one of the most enjoyable events I've played in a time since Crowfall.
The story is genuinely funny, the writing has a lot of personality, and the gameplay mechanics are top-notch. It's clear that a lot of creativity and effort went into making this event feel fresh and rewarding, so thank you to the entire team for the amazing work.
I did want to report one issue I encountered: the Automaton Assembly mini-game appears to be bugged. Specifically, the 8,000-point and 25,000-point milestone rewards are not granting their event tickets after being reached. It would be great if the team could look into this, as it seems to prevent players from receiving the rewards they've earned.
Thanks again for such a fantastic event—I hope we see the next part soon and it seems it will be a pve event hopefully.
Ai slop
It's always so obvious with all the - and -- usage lol. My favourite part is the people who come out and say "I've used those before though!" Yeah same, except we all know nobody heavily used them in every paragraph of text and every combo of words like "top-notch" until AI started producing it for them.
No. Not even half-better than previous events.
It's much better than previous events. This and Crownfall are better than all. Only things we're missing are the thrill of crowdfunding (never to return), a new terrain and the masterpiece that was Aghs Lab.
Most enjoyable event since crownfall? Isn't it the only event since crownfall? Lol
literally my thought
Truly one of the event of all time
They could be comparing to other games
There was monster hunter
It's a soft compliment, but it's still a compliment.
Is he wrong?!
Monster hunter last year
Hard disagree. Poor showing, terrible games tbh. Also the whole carnivale theme is poor.
Slark persona is spot on
Not a fan of the carnival theme. Glad you enjoy it but the skins are really ugly imo.
You're not alone. Pretty sure there's a reason I've seen only player with Carnival Persona so far.
The story? Hah! It's a shitty comic in a video game.
They are giving the rewards, but they are shown as ??? on the tickets rewards page.
There is no fkn way , yall glazing this event. Mid at best. Come on now
No, they're absolutely correct. It is the best event since Crownfall, because it is the only event since Crownfall. Monster Hunter and Quarteros Curios don't really qualify as events, basically just free skin giveaways.
I got the rewards after waiting a bit
In spite of some of the comments around here, I personally LOVE the dark carnival theme and art design and so on.
Man, everytime I peek my head into this subreddit, it reminds me why I don't frequent it. Everybody b*tches about everything - it's a pool of shared misery. Just be happy that the game we love still gets support. It could get the HotS treatment. I'm not hot on the carnival theme either, but at least some time went into giving us something to engage with alongside the regular game. They dropped 5 'Personas', making them considerably cheaper to get than past BP ones and arcanas. They may not have as much flair, but it could be much, much worse. Just be grateful it exists at all.
