Learn how modern game reviews work.
8 is average/good, while anything under 7.5 is garbage.
>>340172957
How is that a bad thing?
I would be less inclined to buy it if IGN gave it 10/10.

Diversity doesn't mean a good game
I can't even get the original game to run on my computer.
Wasnt this the game they had sarkeesian come and give input?
Must feel great for the average worker at the studio to have such a renowned feminist come and guide its direction.
Don't forget IGN gave Alien Isolation a 5.9/10 and look at how that turned out.

Absolutely adore the first one, and since there doesn't really exist other games like it I need my fix. And it doesn't look that horrible if you turn off the red markers. But I'll wait for some more unbiased reviews and word of mouth.
And if not Denuvo I would pirate.

>>340175564
Total War Warhammer is the best Total War since M2 though so your logic just took a huge blow there.
>>340176002
it succeeded because everything else about the game is so highly polished. literally the only complaint i ever hear about the game is how half the characters are so corny and forced and like a shitty sjw pixar movie.
DO NOT BUY THIS GAME ANITA SARKEESIAN IS A DEV SHE WILL GET ROYALTIES IF YOU BUY IT
>>340172957
Gamespot seems to agree. The actual review goes into a lot of details on the little bits that kinda' suck.
>>340172957
I was thinking about preordering. Now I am not. Thank you OP
>>340176110
I, too, think you should not buy the game because anita sarkeesian is a dev.

On the upgrade system:
>The upgrade system is another low point for Catalyst. Some essential maneuvers that should simply be available from the start--like the quickturn and tactical roll--must be unlocked, and other abilities can't be upgraded until you've progressed far enough into the campaign. This practice of artificially gating upgrades feels forced and pointless, though thankfully, the progression system ultimately has little impact on the moment-to-moment gameplay since you'll already have all the essentials unlocked after the first hour or two. All later upgrades--such as increased health and damage--are helpful but by no means crucial.
>>340176490

>>340173897

I agree but that's not even a good example considering that the vast majority of the SF hardcore fanbase fucking love that game.
I guess all that time consulting Anita Sarkeesian instead of making a good game was well spent ;)
>>340177041
This. The only open world game in recent memory with a decent game world was Xenoblade X, which isn't even a western game, and sacrificed story and gameplay in the process of making the amazing game world.

>>However, their money and time is focused on parts people don't give a shit about.
Why wouldn't they do this? They made a game that people liked, but it wasn't universally well-received, and the sales reflected that. The part that was good, ain't broken, so they stick with it, and focus on expanding the game and making the parts people didn't like better so that they may like them.
Unfortunately, they're incompetent, and the time they spent on that stuff didn't actually make it better, so instead the game is worse for it because it shoves that shit in the players face.
>>340177893
>>340177654
Most of them were recent. I'm guessing it had to with an update and not the diverse staff.
>>340178145
True. But at least it's still a pretty good game, which is the consensus.
>>340173897
To be fair that worked really well with the Souls. They said fuck the core audience in 2 and 3, but they got the casual audience, so everything went fine.

i feel like souls expanded to more gamers rather than to more consumers in general.
>>340177041
Never because it's fucking great when done right.
>>340178325
>The gameplay part of the actual game takes precedence over everything else.
Dice didn't seem to understand this sadly
>>340175389
I liked the first one
It was nice to jump around
Then they put you in a vent system for half of the fucking game
>>340178939
Didn't you people retreat to an Imzy hugbox? The fuck are you doing here?
>>340179290
It's been done right?
>>340179180
Are you triggered? You're the one who keeps bringing her up when DICE confirmed awhile she had nothing to do with the game.
>>340179310
>all those marketing buzzwords
This is what happens when people say they want a sequel when they really don't.
>>340179269
was not ready for that. quit making me feel old.

the age of pandering is over

>But perhaps the strongest element in Mirror's Edge is its iconic heroine, Faith.
>In 2008, I was one of the millions of fans who felt connected with Faith.
What the fuck am I reading? No one who wasn't retarded gave a FUCK about Faith. They liked the game for the parkour gameplay.

No, Quake is the multiplayer title
Doom is the singleplayer title

>game was fun to a community of people who enjoyed the speedrunning aspect who loved to do things like find optimum routes and techniques to keep up speed
>a bunch of retards who pretend like the non existant personality of the MC and shitty story was gods gift to gaming come along and beg dice for a sequel
>dice shits outs a game that combines the worst of modern gaming along with pandering to the idiots.
>>340178786
How can it be a meme if it's the reality?
>>340179754
Doom always had multiplayer, it was a big part of it
You can still play multiplayer of the original
>>340176918
they dindu nuffin
they a good board
>>340178538
It is a good game that doesnt have anything flashy. The game is pretty slow and there is still little to learn about matchups and the like. Game is OK but still not as fun to watch as Ultra Anus IV-
>>340175564
U wut m8?
I purchased and played the shit out of MGSV and never, ever noticed that it had denuvo until I was 100+ hrs in.
Fuck off.
>>340179804
i think this is a case where the push for diversity in video games has backfired since so many people cite faith as an example of a good character literally because of her race and gender that it must have gone to DICE's head
>>340175151
They can blame gaming's new boogeyman: Misogynists.
>>340179945
MGSV was literally incomplete
It's a fucking curse I tell you
THANKS BASED EA
GOD SPEDE
>>340176251
The first game already had an issue with having too much combat you couldn't run away from (they even gave you guns for some fucking reason) so I don't have a hard time believing they did blunder again.
>>340177259
Open world is what made TPP gameplay so great, the only weak side was the story which was still pretty solid, but uncompleted.
