It's a fucking disgrace of a review, even if it's """""satiric"""""
>>337901435
Why does Troy Baker even care about the score anyway?
it's an unscored review and metacritic counted it as scored
REMOVE THIS, WP
removing a opinion because you don't like it is literal censorship. So now we're going to censor reviews too? Does this mean the average youtuber will have their opinions silenced too now?

>>337901956
Some companies actually decide bonuses, raises and pay decreases based on metacritic.
>>337902102
But he already got paid and the Uncharted series ended already so there aren't any sequels that he could be on anyway
>>337902210
You know that one voice actor that likes to scream almost every line he does? that's the guy
>>337902349
that a shady tactics, the company can simply pay them to lower the score if the bonus is more expensive than the bribe
>>337902349
This is bullshit, there's no way a company would be this cancerous.
>>337902604
you new video games?
>>337902604
Though I have no facts stating that is how they remunerate bonuses, I wouldn't be surprised if that's how they did it.
To be fair, they have to reach certain targets, and if review scores are one of them it'd be hoped that will lead to better developed games.
That's the theory anyway.
>>337902462
Lower scores usually mean less sales though, yeah a lot of people buy games based on metacritic scores, believe it or not, I have a friend who is like this.

>>337902821
Me two pal
>>337902604
Its very real. I think the most memorable example was New Vegas or something, the guys didnt get paid when the metacritic score was 79 instead of 80.

They've all been doing it for like 10 years. Obsidian nearly died because of that.
>>337902906

>>337901868
I'm against silencing dissent, but I'm also in favor of review aggregators that actually aggregate reviews. That article wasn't a review in the slightest, just a retard saying he doesn't like the story of the Uncharted games and saying nothing about the game. Even your average Steam or Metacritic user review has more insight than that.
>it's real
wtf
why
just move on with your life that some people don't like your game
this is stupid af
>>337901868
The average youtuber doesn't get to appear as a "critic" on Metacritic, so I guess according to your retarded argument they are already being censored as we speak.
>>337901956
No. The kind of people who obsess about metacritic scores for Sony games already finished Uncharted and refuse to play multiplats. So they have time to shitpost here and on metacritic until the next Ps4 exclusive arrives.
Uncharted 4 is the game that made Playstation's fan go full SJW
>>337903491
>when all you have as evidence is hearsay.
Dude just use google, it's a well known fact.
http://kotaku.com/metacritic-matters-how-review-scores-hurt-video-games-472462218
The first article I read about it was nearly 10 years ago and highlighted that the real problem was nobody actually knows how the metacritic score is calculated because metacritic won't tell.
So yeah... metacritic is all mighty and powerful and can dictate what studio lives or dies and since nobody knows how it works, who can tell if publishers have influenced it or not in the past to get away with underpaying the dev studios?
Thankfully crowdfunding changed that a few years ago for some studios
>>337903681
This is is reputation on the line. If the score was low, it would make sense. But 4/10 is "bad". And I'm pretty sure that Uncharted 4 is not bad.
So yeah, an artist who worked on a project and find that a critic unfairly rated the project might talk about the removal of said critical piece.
It's not about not liking. 4/10 is ridiculously low for a game like Uncharted 4.
how insecure are sonyggers
Are you people legit retarded?
There are two Washington post reviews. The 4/10 was a joke review that accidentally counted on the metacritic score and the legit review gave it 10/10
This is what sonyfags are all about.
It's not about playing games and having fun, it's about 'muh scores and reviews' and 'muh exclusives'
>>337904061
You can buy a PC with far better specs than a PS4 right now and still you won't find a better looking game with so much attention to detail than U4.

It makes sense though
Even if you don't give too much of a shit about score and would rather read user reviews, you probably are still skewed towards checking out games with a higher score
Meaning, you don't even consider whether games with 20% score might actually be good and everyone else is just an idiot

>>337902462
That would defeat the purpose. The whole point of this metacritic-based bonus is that games with a better metacratic score will sell better on average. If they sabotage it they go against their own interest.
That being said most people making those petitions and writing those incendiary comments on negative articles are just rabid fanboys who do it for free.
>>337901435
>sonyggers literally on suicide watch over a fucking clickbait article
Sometimes I wonder if these people have no self awareness at all.
>>337904283
There are PC games that do more ambitious stuff on a technical level, yet there is no PC game that as a package looks as good as UC4. It's so detailed with high quality assets and the animation really gives it that polished look.
I'm willing to bet this is as much fun as it's ever been to work at metacritic
>>337901435
Looks like sonyggers can no longer pick on PC about petitions
>>337901435
>petition endorsed by Troy Baker

>>337902604
Back in the day
PSM magazine the italian version of it
>we do not accept "favors" from game companies and we judge all games on even grounds, that will means each game will get a one page review and if we want to insert a special for it we will add more pages
This was like 18 years ago,their score rating was from 1 to 5 nevertheless sometimes pages were containing two reviews instead of one cause old games or just not so popular games
Other magazines who had their "100% Official Playstation" crap were
>pumping scores
>circlejerking like /v/
>multiple X game specials
I do remember a six page special for Duke 3D,multiple Tomb Raider II and Fighting Force previews then the latter bombed so hard and they never talked about it,on the other hand PSM was still throwing shit at it cause they had no ties to Sony
Paid reviews were and are always a thing and this 10/10 parkour charted 4 is no excepetion
>>337903579
What's so wrong with being dissatisfied with the story when reviewing a movie?

Bethesda said they would give obsidian some amount of cash if their game (fnv) had like 85/100 on metacritic or soemthing. FNV was 1 point below that and obsidian didn't get the money.

> Giving a game a bad score because you dislike the way the industry works
This is why people are so upset. You can say whatever you want, whenever you want, without concequences.
I blame facebook and Twitter.
>>337907680
The majority of reporting isn't sincere. It exists to get you to give up your money or influence your political beliefs.
Gamergate is real, corruption in journalism is widespread and way worse in actual journalism.
>>337907710
Washington post submitted 4/10 to metacritic as the score he gave it, he has clarified this.
He gave the game a score, Washington post just doesn't put scores on their pages
>>337907649
The internet ruined videogames.
Every one conciders themselves to be 'journalists' suddenly because they've got an opinion they care more about than some one else's.
>>337907873
I agree, I think it deserves a 6 or 7. The graphics are good, there's a lot of attention to details. It's not like it's lazily made. But the gameplay is super dull.
>>337908152
Yeah it's basically some weird policy issue Washington Post has that prevents the score he gave it appearing on their website. It also seems the be the same policy they use for the other games they have review as well. It's just became a big problem probably because of Uncharted popularity.
>>337908212
Meanwhile videogame developers just focus on making money, instead of satisfying their audience.
Why? Because literally no one is going to be happy. You can't change anything, and you háve to change everything at the same time.
Journalists are getting emotionally involved in videogame arguments, developers are getting emotionally involved, it's the same shit all over again.
Same guy writes the article how Dark Souls is the worst game ever made. Nobody gives a fuck. I guess he was right, eh?
>>337908368
The same thing applies with /pol/tards invading Twitter. News websites and journalists are reporting on the word 'cuck', being it the most popular term to use. Even though people tend to use it, just to piss other people off.
(it's working)
Mark my words, this whole social media shit is spiraling down into bigger shit.
>>337908479
So, conclusion,
I think 'personal' and 'community' reviews should be censored.
> 10/10 AYY MEMES
> 10/10 WOULD PLAY AGAIN!!!
> 10/10 LOLOLO
> 1/10 IT WAS OKAY

>looking up reviews for a meme game
>oh wow a meme review
>>337908986
What do you consider nót to be a meme game?
>>337908751
I agree that these reviews where they list shit that happened (often with meme arrows) and then go 10/10 LMAO are fucking retarded
However, it's your own fault if you actually read those
Here's how to check reviews for a game you're interested in
>completely ignore the ratio of good reviews, that tells you nothing
>scroll through the negative reviews and read any well-written ones that go into great detail of what's good and bad about the game
>do the same one for positive
>ignore meme reviews
I have lost all respect for sonyfags.
This takes the fucking cake. You guys are cancer.
>>337908007
>It's not like other games stopped being made
Mid-tier console games basically disappeared outside of Japan. Nowadays there are only indies and AAA which just become more and more expensive, needing multi million units sold in order to be successful, which isn't a healthy model at all.
And of course, mid-tier titles died because they couldn't compare with AAA production values and people started expecting those values out of their console games. So, yes, AAA titles did ruin the market and decreased the amount of mainstream games we get in exchange for higher production values for the few titles left.
>>337909083
Not that guy, and i usually find the term "meme game" fucking stupid, but isn't that one of those retarded intentionally bad simulators that are still riding on the success of Goat Simulator? That's like looking up reviews for Bad Rats
>>337908419
He said dark souls 2 is the worst game ever made, but I can see you're a huge fan of censorship so you intentionally censored that 2 there :^)
>>337909230
Literally every problem can be solved with simply ignoring it. I do agree though. I was just giving an example of why I believe that these reviews should be censored.
I don't understand the hype behind U4. It looks good, that's cool, but it's just a 10-15 hours long 3rd person shooter game.
>The “Uncharted” games have never excelled at storytelling. Instead, they’ve used it an accompaniment to overwhelming visual technology. The games have always struck me as garish more than gorgeous, more interested in overwhelming the senses than communicating with them.
This is the truest paragraph anyone has ever written about this overhyped series.
>>337909412
Again, supply a game that you don't find to be a meme game, instead of not contributing to the discussion at hand.
>>337909472
I don't think they should be straight-up censored
How would you even do that? You'd need to have some guys whose entire job it is to read every review manually and decide whether it is worth something. Not to mention the fact that it is completely subjective what counts as a good review.
Just let the kids have their fun, they'll never stop begging for attention
>4/10
>"bad"
1 or 2 out of 10 would be bad.
4 out of 10 qualifies as mediocre. Like a game you'd rent once and never consider playing again after a couple days. Or a "AAA" game you can beat in 3-4 hours.
>>337909425
Dark Souls is the best game ever and this bigot needs to shut the fuck up
>>337909582
> How would you even do that?
Remove the webpage.
>>337909584
5/10 would be mediocre. 4/10 is worse than mediocre.
>>337909628
You want to censor ALL user reviews? Are you out of your fucking mind?
Let's go back to the glory days of "professional" reviews!
>not up-to-date for whatever the latest build is
>not a large enough sample to allow for a wide variety of opinions
>not as in-depth due to the lack of numbers
>>337909587
Dark Souls 1 is trully the best game ever made, but Dark Souls 2 actually sucks. It don't have charisma, it apealls to traps and shit to troll experient players instead of making true challenges, and trully force you to play online, since the game has very few human effigies.
The guy isn't wrong about it.
>>337909584
> AAA game
I want this term to die.
>>337904854
>>337907732
No, they're bitching about the Washington Post review. The written review doesn't have a number attached to it, but when Metacritic asked WP for an equivalent numerical value, Washington Post gave them a 4/10.
Honestly, I read the review (likely very few people have) and I agree wholeheartedly with it. Uncharted 4 is another entry in the "trilogy" in which it goes through the same paces as all three prior games, but has fewer shooting sequences, the same autopilot-linear climbing/chase sequences and a shitload more cinematic scenes/cutscenes.
On the first playthrough, the experience is novel, on a replay, it's dull as fuck, and you discover how bereft of actual gameplay (shooting) there is and you're just going through the motions of redoing the same climbing sections / puzzles and skipping all the very poorly paced cutscenes.
>>337909812

He hates DS1 too, mate. And DS2 is a very good game, too, it have a lot of improvements, compared to DS1. You can use buzzwords such as "charisma", "actual artificial difficulty" etc., but Dark Souls 2 is a solid game.
DS1 == DS2 == DS3. Learn to appreciate every souls game, take off your rose tinted glasses.
>>337909528
The stories aren't anything special, but Uncharted games have some of the best character interactions I've seen, both in writing and implementation into gameplay.
The latter sentence just doesn't make much sense. The levels have a lot of detail, but they always subtly highlight the important parts and direct you to the next goal, so I'd say they do the "communication with the senses" pretty well.
In other words, that statement isn't very true at all
>>337910051
>character interactions
Please explain
>>337909901
>>Dev blogs. Twitter. Facebook. Web page of creator.
Yeah and I'm gonna fucking read social media to get opinions about how good the latest build is, sure.
>meme opinions and self loathing user reviews need to die
Just fucking ignore the bad ones instead of purging the good ones along with them
>Why would you even want this?
So I can know what issues there are in the game even if only a few people think of it?
Protip: Ignore the "most helpful" tab and just scroll through the reviews until you find one that actually has some thought put into it
You're a daft cunt

Pick one.
The bigger problem is how Metacritic scores are being viewed as a metric for a game's success. This needs to stop.
Same with movies and RT scores.
>>337910275
So let's see
You want me to go through the effort of reading dev blogs (because those totally tell me what works in the game, right?)
But you don't want to go through the effort of scrolling for 5 seconds to find a good user review
That's like screaming for all professional reviews to get deleted because you found one bad one
Just maybe think for yourself for once
>>337910116
The characters talk to each other a lot, and the dialogue is really well written.
More importantly, much of the dialogue is reacting to what's happening in the game at the moment, which makes the characters feel natural in a way I haven't seen in other games.
For example, in one point you're exploring some caves with an AI controlled companion. If you manage to get lost from each other they yell to make sure both of them are okay, and if you meet the companion walking towards you they remard how the cave seems to be making a loop.
There's dozens of interactions like this in each level that you might or might not see, depending on how you're playing.
It doesn't sound like a huge deal, but it makes a big impact on the games' atmosphere, and it's what makes the series special in my opinion
>>337910008
Nah. Dark Souls 2 was made by fucking amateurs and it shows in every possible regard.
>>337910640
> That's like screaming for professional reviews to get deleted
But I don't want them to get deleted. I want user reviews to get deleted.
> Because you found one bad one
Define 'bad'. Reviewers are getting paid to review your game but you chose to ignore their opinions, while you scroll through kiddy user reviews that like/dislike a game based on user preference.
>>337910825
>But I don't want them to get deleted. I want user reviews to get deleted.

>>337910798
Dark Souls 2 was designed by fucking Naotoshi Zin, you amateur.
>different character states - you can be wet, and lighting will damage you more, or if you covered in oil, fire damage will explode you
>interesting interactions with locations - sometimes you can lit all the sconces on the location and something will happen. Farros stones transforms the location, creating new traps or leading to a secret passages.
>Best covenants so far, with great PvE based Covenant Of Champions (DS3 covenants suck, deal with it, only purple bros are somewhat good)
>best complexitiy of battle mechanics, with unique armor and helmet properties, like the antibackstabbing armor or helmets which prevents headshot damage
>bonfire ascetics, which lets you to fight already slain bosses
>bets New Game+ in the series
And a lot of shit that DS2 made right.

Doesn't the inflation of expectations for production value fall squarely on PC gamers who push graphics above all else and have constantly harped on console games as being shitty and ugly because they don't compare graphically to PC games?
>>337912060
>But I played DS2 ~300 hours and I never encountered these shitty hitboxes.
You're joking right? I played through DS2 once only and encountered several bullshit hitboxes

Maybe I play too good and have a good timing dodging and blocking, dunno
When I was younger my parents bought me a Super Nintendo along with a copy of A Link to the Past and Super Mario All Stars. If someone had told me at that moment that in 20 years people would no longer be playing video games, but would instead be writing "reviews" for them as a paid profession, and others would be "campaigning" en masse for said reviews to be removed, I'd have just said fuck the whole thing and thrown the SNES in the dumpster.
I should've taken up crochet.

That's exactly what makes it infuriating though, you dodge and get hit by nothing anyway

That's the idea. To rob the seditionists of another tool to use against others, or even use it against them. Then destroy it after it has been used and abused so the true enemies couldn't use it again.
>>337908751
At least half the people who reviews games on steam/metacritic/whatever aren't taking it seriously.

Just pick any game and read at least 20 reviews, things are worse on steam tho.
That's why they implemented the funny category on the steam reviews.

I think that's doing the game a favor.
You do realize what uncharted's gameplay is, right?
Everyone would give it a 4/10 then, not just one guy.

The most oft-cited Voltaire quotation is apocryphal. He is incorrectly credited with writing, "I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it." These were not his words, but rather those of Evelyn Beatrice Hall, written under the pseudonym S. G. Tallentyre in her 1906 biographical book The Friends of Voltaire. Hall intended to summarize in her own words Voltaire's attitude towards Claude Adrien Helvétius and his controversial book De l'esprit, but her first-person expression was mistaken for an actual quotation from Voltaire. Her interpretation does capture the spirit of Voltaire's attitude towards Helvetius; it had been said Hall's summary was inspired by a quotation found in a 1770 Voltaire letter to an Abbot le Riche, in which he was reported to have said, "I detest what you write, but I would give my life to make it possible for you to continue to write."[89] Nevertheless, scholars believe there must have again been misinterpretation, as the letter does not seem to contain any such quote.[90]

And kill yourself you degenerate scum
The review was unscored. It was always meant to be unscored. It was just one man's opinion.
The Washington Post sent it in as a 4/10 to stir up shit. That's kinda fucked. What's happening here isn't censorship, it's removal of a score from a review that doesn't have a numeric score from its author anyway.
>>337913961
>I only stated it ruined videogames.
I know
Which is why I corrected you
Life used to be better before the internet and all this social media garbage and being non-stop connected to the internet 24/7

The problem with letting a satirical score affect the metascore is that developers get bonuses if a game exceeds a certain metascore after a sset time period based on their contracts. This affects the entire development team. So yeah. If a game is genuinely good (it is) then getting shit on for a clickbait article is bad for the team.
The fact that it is in the "Comic Riffs" section should be an indicator that this is not a serious review.
You can't argue that this is a shit game. It might not be your cup of tea, but there is nothing "bad" about it. The visuals are impressive. The gameplay is enjoyable for the average gamer, and it has a level of polish that you would expect from a AAA title. There are terrible games out there. If you want to shit on something, aim for the shitty movie tie-in of the month. I mean, I'm more or less done with Uncharted games. The formula is getting stale. Yet even I can recognize that the game is not shit. The only people trying to claim it is are edgy faggots that need an underage ban.
Weird, I did not see a petition to remove the stupid joke-reviews from Star Fox Zero metacritic score
>>337916163
Too bad the review is legit and the only reason it wasn't given a score on the website is because of Washington Post policy. The reviewer already gave his score along with the article which is the 4/10.
>>337916608
If the score is already well below 90, it would make no difference.
And it is only the critic reviews that matter. Use reviews aren't part of the metrics used for contractual performance bonuses.
>>337916818
What part of "Comic Riffs" section are you confused about? Everything in that section is satire. Always has been. read the other articles.
>>337917114
The Forbes article already explain the situation. Regardless of what you want to believe the review is legit.
>>337917114
You are so fucking stupid. Read the section yourself. It's a "geek culture" page.
>>337917342
I was not aware of that article. I retract what I said. The critic is simply blind. Maybe I should sit behind a keyboard and throw out unpopular opinions on games. I mean, as long as people are pissed about my reviews, it means people are reading me, right?
>>337908368
>Because literally no one on /v/ is going to be happy
fixed that for you
>>337917818
I don't agree with the critic but I respect his opinion and don't believe it should be remove because people don't like it.
>People ITT actually believe that there are objectively good games and that's there's no way for Uncharted 4 to get a 4/10
Gamers are fucking losers.

Even if the guy is a total retard and doesn't have the ability to evaluate a video-game. Why do they care? It's an isolated review.

I'm not defending the petition, but the review was stupid.
The things it complains about the Uncharted series for was normal for games in those days.
The review boils down to "I don't like how previous games played looking through my modern gameplay lens"
>>337918764
Now that I see it wasn't a joke, I don't believe it should be removed either. However having read his review, I disagree with all points, and will not be looking to him for game recommendations. He just sounds like an edgelord.
That said, I think that based on number of reviews, a certain number of the top and bottom reviews should be removed from the metascore. They do this in other systems, particularly sports scoring to eliminate extreme biases.

The guy besides Nolan North who is in EVERY SINGLE VIDEO GAME. And they both have the main roles in Uncharted 4.
