For Anor Londo you cannot say recycled, like jesus, do you even know what recycled assets are?

The way I look at it, the reviewer doesn't understand that it's very intentional that the game makes you keep attacking in the same direction you started even when the enemy moves, or that your own attacks follow the target at varying degrees based on the weapon you use.

>>333389636
Think of it like this.

Bloodborne was superb, but not perfect or masterful so it gets a 9, and Dark Souls 3 is a worse game, so it gets an 8. You might say then that it's harsh compared to other game scores, but within the context of the series, it's a fair score.

they had the same guy at gamespot reviewing demon's souls, dark souls 1, dark souls 2 (i think) and bloodborne. reviewer's name is kevin van ord or something. he's a pretty decent reviewer (although he dropped the ball with the das2 review because gs gave it a nine... if it was him who reviewed it). some other guy reviewed das3. i bet kevin van ord would have given das3 a 9.
>>
>>333398470
9/10, but then the reviews for that game either show that
1. They can't see how superior in almost every way Dark Souls was. Or

2. They overrated it just so as many people as possible try this game out and that most of the faults are things that only people who played the original Dark Souls would figure out.

(Gamespot also gave Demon's Souls GOTY2009... pretty based)
>Dark Souls - 9.5/10
>Dark Souls II - 9/10

I could see him giving DaS3 a 9/10 for sure. There's no way DaS3 is an 8/10, fuck no.

That's as retarded as saying that the citizens are the part of the problem instead of the state.
>>
>>333398916
That was never the review scale. If anything, the problem was that today's 7-10 scale actually had a purpose because you had far more games people might actually play that were outright broken. Contrary to popular belief on /v/, the general standards of the games have considerably improved in modern gaming. You might say that the best isn't nearly as good as it used to be, but if you randomly chose a game from a respectable publisher these days, you're much more likely to get a good or fair game than you were before. This isn't merely nostalgia for older gaming but for older review scores, and it's not really based on history.
>>
>>333400179
And DaS3 doesn't go towards that? It is the first game other than Bloodborne to make a shift to current graphics. The first 3 were all relatively similar with small increments as they were same gen, DaS2 arguably worse in some ways than DaS1.
>>
>>333389636
Not that surprising 2bh. Dark Souls 3 was a mixed team effort. It was Miyazaki co directing with a B-Team director and they were leading B-Team. Of course it would be an 8/10 effort.

Meanwhile S-Team (Miyazaki + From's A Team + Sony) made Bloodborne so naturally it's the superior game.

I was okay with it, it was an interesting way to get new players into the setting and style of the game and served as an interesting contrast to when shit goes down and the game actually starts.

>>333400841
I am just saying that you couldn't release a game looking like Dark Souls today and have that be acceptable. Naturally, Dark Souls III has better graphics than any previous entry, making in that sense a better game, but standards have increased because it's a new generation. More importantly, the effect that Dark Souls has on gamers has diminished and Bloodborne did more to recreate that then Dark Souls III does.

So if games start getting more 7s /v/ isn't going to shit on them? /v/ shits on stuff that is 89 now. If it doesn't have a 9 or above it is garbage. The standard /v/ argues gets higher each year no matter what the reviewers are doing.

Citizens actually are part of the problem as power is ultimately in their hands. That is how revolutions work. It is dismantling the state and putting something else in place that citizens find more acceptable.
