The thing that sorta tipped me off, was how these devs were once a part of CDPR, and how they had "differences" with the company, so it wouldn't surprise me if one of the devs was salty at constant criticism of their game. It doesn't make much sense to create a private account, with zero name change in their history and no profile picture. The vast majority of Steam users have at least one name change in their history, as well as a profile picture (unless you're a PuB cheater from China, they create new accounts all the time).
Also that user created a thread that gave nothing but overwhelming praise, despite the game flying over the majority of reviewers radars (it didn't really turn any heads tbf) and it's glaring performance issues.
I like the game, I just have major issues with the devs not getting on top of the game's optimisation. They've been putting out patches for a few months that basically work on gameplay and some bug fixes, but someone like me with a 1080ti and an i7-6700k cannot seem to run it even decently at 1440p.
I just ran Spellforce III at near ultra settings, and I can definitely manage above 60fps and the worst dips I've had on that game so far are 50-55, but then it scales back up to 70-100 frames in no time. With Seven, I'll be lucky if I can maintain 60, as it mostly goes down from 60 to sub 30fps nearly all the time, except for areas with no objects or NPC's. Game is in dire need of performance optimisation (maybe that's why they left CDPR, because they couldn't cut it with their poor quality craftsmanship).
Btw, I'd highly suggest giving Spellforce III a go. It's a nice blend of RTS meets RPG, as well as having Geralt's voice actor as the second protagonist, which gives the game a nice touch of familiarity. Graphics and visuals in that game are gorgeous and while I am waiting for further performance patches, it still runs better than Seven does.
Mankind, in its arrogance and self-delusion, must believe they are the mirrors to God in both their image and their power. If something shatters that mirror, then it must be totally destroyed.
