Over 300,000 eager players rushed to play Last Epoch when it launched last week and the servers quickly collapsed under the weight. The widespread connection issues that followed led to a slew of negative Steam reviews that knocked its “mostly positive” rating down to “mixed”.
The worst of those issues now seem to be over, but the initial reactions still sit permanently on the game’s Steam page. In a post reflecting on the launch yesterday, game director Judd Cobler seems confident the team can turn the sentiment around.
