I was playing through the whole of Deadspace 1 on the hardest difficulty with v-sync on and it was super hard. Afterwards I turned it off and replayed it and it was so fucking easy to aim all of a sudden, all the horror was gone. I will say though that the delay is more noticeable in certain games, so it can seem almost placebo in some cases.

As long as you have quarter of a brain, knowing what you like, watching ratings on steam and metacritic and watching gameplay videos should be enough to descide for yourself.

Even shit like RLM is mostly only good for entertainment value.

So after lying through their teeth about it not being a linear series of rooms connected by corridors, it is, in fact, a linear set of rooms connected by corridors that you can't leave until you shoot all the enemies.

Nigger that's the worst hyperbole I've seen all year.
Not a fan of Bethesda (who are entirely different from BGS, so quit bullying the toddler), but to say they're worse and Ubisoft and mother fucking EA is way too outlandish.

This is how arkane got to 'join' the bethesda family and why 4 missions where missing from the game. Bethesda has done this several times. Last time was with humanhead studios and prey, who chose bankrupcy.

Then of course there's obsidian and the
>instead of giving you a % cut of the game sales, as per the norm. We will give you a massive bonus thats almost 3x as much as you could hope from the % cut so long as you reach a 85 metacritic.
And of course, they also had to use an older build of the fallout 3 engine, bethesda didnt actually bug test (a publishers job), forced them to remove content they felt was "to dark", self delayed them and was even found to be paying off smaller review sites for lower scores.
The game is sitting at 84. FONV sold more than 3, DLC included, and obsidian hasnt seen a single dollar profit. ever.

Do you honestly think anyone goes up to anyone and says "heres 1000 bucks, give this review a bad grade"

They go through legal channels. Heres a free game via review (60$), heres the special edition (120$), here, run these ads on your site (w/e the normal ad rev will be). This is how people get money. Normally, this is on the up and up. But when your talking sites who wouldnt even be on bethesdas radar ever? and every single one gave around a 70, no.

Good. I'm glad you Obsidiot assholes are mad.

I tried literally EVERYTHING to create a Happening in the Fallout community to try and push a force towards Bethesda to make them change
Everyone said "not your personal army" and I received bans for trying to start boycotts and invasions on Bethesda

Now I realize you Obsidiots are nothing but useless idiots and hypocrites. You hate Bethesda yet do nothing to actually topple them but complain, and can't even be arsed to do it directly to Bethesda devs. You people are idiots and it's your own fault your series is, "Dead", or so you claim from your sensationalist nonsense.

Not only that, but a majority of your sensationalist shit is lies. NV's production time was AGREED UPON and was planned by Feargus Urquhart. THEY AGREED ON THE METACRITIC THING.

No, I'm serious. "The big bang theory memewagon" doesn't even mean anything. It's just a vague insult.

"games too hard being sexist" is probably something he got from that anita sarkeesian photoshop that wasn't even a real quote--it was completely made up.

"how localization is necessary to protect people from...etc" is something I really haven't seen any reviewers mention. Maybe one or two have praised that apparently controversial Nintendo stuff from a few months back, but that's a really big maybe. And even still, it doesn't represent the entirety of video game reviewers.

There are plenty of decent criticisms of the business. Maybe he's afraid that reviewers will give certain games good reviews in hopes of later working for the developers. That's happened before. Maybe he has a complaint about people raising issues of gender in reviews. That's his choice to be mad at or not.

But he shouldn't just make things up.
