good lord, man. that’s a lot of empty, teenage-like rage to have to read through. this guy is dramatically clawing his face and screaming in anger over a 20 minute gameplay video.
the game looks fine, dude. can we save the hysterics for when the game is released?
From the two downvotes you have already, apparently not. I think the rule is if we don’t preorder based on trailers and marketing hype, we also shouldn’t trash something based on trailers. We have no idea what it is.
It becomes a self fulfilling prophecy. If you go in with a negative outlook - you’re going to have a negative experience. Go in neutral and you will probably have a decent time.
down votes I don’t care about. what depresses me is how extra, obnoxious and angry people have become when it comes to new titles.
we can’t just say “I don’t know if this game looks like its for me.” any longer. we instead have to go full rage-nerd and call for the fall of video games and the end of the universe when a game doesn’t appeal to us.
articles like this keep that toddler-tantrum response normalized and I dislike it. I dislike it very very much.
preaching to the choir man. I got ripped apart a few months ago for my incredibly hot (apparently) take the Starfield was an okay game.
People were just loving the bandwagon they were on, telling everyone the game sucked, it was trash, that Bethesda was dead. Meanwhile I was … playing the game. And you know what? It was fine. It wasn’t amazing, it wasn’t revolutionizing the player experience, but I had a decent time in it. Mechanics weren’t perfect, it wasn’t the absolute best game I’ve played, but I got my money’s worth with it.
That’s what I hate. Nothing can be “okay”. It’s either Red Dead 2 levels of perfect - or absolute garbage. It’s either the best game they’ve played or the developers didn’t even try.
Then they wonder why companies aren’t willing to go out on a limb and try new things.
Seriously. I really liked Origins and had fun with 2 and Inquisition. If this is great, I’ll happily play it. If I don’t like it, I won’t - I have more backlog than time for games anyway. I don’t get what people get so angry about.
