>gameplay is moving to places, finding oxygen tanks and repairing machinery

Why is this a bad thing when some people find pleasure in roaming around a nicely done 3d environement if nothing else (every PC gamer ever)?
For a reviewer this guy should know better.

I can summarize every game by saying its about going from A to B. Does this summary still make you want to play video games?

i dont. I dont even like the game. I am just defending it because I used to love these types of games (like crysis)

Reviews are inherently subjective, and hence to accurately gauge a review you kinda need to know about the reviewers taste and read between the lines.

Also the devs clearly didn't pay the IGN reviewers fee.

In Crysis you kill dudes and drive cars. This game is floating simulator, you don't do shit.

Not only are you wrong in many cases, you are overly simplistic, except when applying this to games like adrift.
For this game it is fair, for a game like doom for instance, it would not be, and doom is not a complex game in any sense of the word.

>Why is this a bad thing
Because it makes for a poor game, which the score reflects.
A game is played, not merely "experienced".
There is less difference between a walking simulator and a non-interative medium like a book or a movie than between this genre and any other game.
The saving grace of these kind of games has always been presentation and narration, things at which they can excel bar none, but adrift fails in that regard as well, so its score reflects that it is not nearly as good as things like firewatch or telltale games.

You aren't talking for me. You and your shitty game can go and fuck themselves.
