MrMattyPlays VS Mortismal

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i3h7pO6xLAM

Here we have 2 content creators who seem honest to me, and who like RPGs. Mortismal is an RPG fanatic for sure. Mortismal says that for him it is the game of the year and MrMattyPlays that it is a disappointment.
At this point I think the game is just a matter of taste. So my advice is to try the game for yourself. That's what I'm going to do.

He's going with what will net him the most views, not what the truth or fair take would be.

Personally I'm sick of the politically motivated hate trains. Most of the games that get trashed are far from that bad. Many are actually good. People are missing out, and nowadays more people trash talk on forums than they actually play video games. They're activists, not gamers, and that's ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ sad.

*Starfield mentioned*

Where was he wrong? Not even Steam users rate it good.

How dare someone dislike game i was told to like by a multimillion marketing campaign! Thats a treason! And clear sign of being a hack reviewer!

On more serious note - Mortismal content sucks, his opinion was worthless 3 years ago, its even more worthless now.

People who dismiss reviewers that did not liked product they are obsessed with are a very sorry bunch.

If you go look at the biggest complaints about Starfield in the Steam reviews, it's just copy-paste nonsense from people who just parrot what Asmongold said in his 5 minute video or some ♥♥♥♥. Starfield isn't a great game, but it's definitely not a bad/trash game. It's a good game and that's actually good. Even going through the main story once, alone, more than justifies the price tag.

Lil bro, you can enjoy Starfield, that's mine. The only good thing about Bethesda games is a decent open-world to explore. We just have space with no real incentive to actually go anywhere. They made a space game that makes No Man's Sky look like a masterpiece.

Mortismal seems like a decent guy, but he also gushed over Graven, a game that currently has a 59% Steam rating. So he tends to be very lenient when it comes to bugs or design flaws.

In any case, this is why you never buy week one. Let the YouTubers who didn't get early access codes play it and objectively review it free from panic over losing income.

- thats a cope, bro. Not to mention, that Crapfield is a product that was 8 years in the making and costed hundred of millions to develop. It is a product that has big money behind its back, not being a broken pile of thrash is not an achievement for such investment. In the end its just a standard Bethesda slop, devoid of any kind of creative thought and mainly being targeted at fanboys who will buy any crap with big enough promotional budget.
No idea about the othey guy but this Mortis guy reviewed Kingmaker the game I find extremely boring and make it sound like fun. So he's probably the type of guy who put up a glorified review about boiled chicken breast with salt.

Well Mortismal clearly rushed the game while forgiving every single bug, so.

Mortismal.

Easily.

Because there is a lot of assumptions and approximations about what Mortismal said about DOA you can go to the source here :https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gZu1v2Zhkwg And by the way, Matty did also liked Starfield, the two of them (Matty & Mortismal) with some complains (rightfully so) .

The one which most closely agrees with my preexisting opinions on Veilguard, obviously.

In fairness we all thought that in beginning.

YouTube is already gushing with reviews and they're going about how you would expect: Being divided over political lines. There's a ton of ppl that want to see another giant dud like Concord appear and lose. Such people have high hopes for this game to be like that.

There's no need to wait a week, you can just watch the dozen or so reviews already out to make up your mind and choose to buy it this week if you want it. The culture war ppl have already made up their mind: they want to see another statistic to add to the litany.

Aside from I think ONE character design option on the menu, nobody has said much about the rest of it. It's not Concord, but we're living in the era of misinformation and if a group is hostile enough, they can attempt to convince people "game bad" by bombarding misinformation at the masses to steer it towards failure. And they're also getting paid really well by the mob that do nothing else but rage view media (with a serious helping of far right twists).

Funny how half of the criticism is for Starfield not being a standard Bethesday game, but the other half is for Starfield being a standard Bethesda slop. It's almost as if most of it is nonsense influenced by youtubers or perfectionist expectations.

Even so that still doesn't mean it's a trash or a bad game. That's the point you're missing. It's so trendy to exaggerate and catastrophize nowadays, it's like a drug. The dopamine from ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ on games hits better than actually playing games etc.

Same with Veilguard. I bet my money on it actually being a quite decent game. But watch it get review bombed and trashed because always online nolifers can never be satisfied by actually good games anymore. It's either perfection or trash. It's BG3 or it's a disaster. No middle ground. Complete brain rot

Mortismal seems odd...

He loves RPGs and the he says that the games story is bland and there no real choice and yet it's "the game of the year" for him? I love his reviews but it seems that he became unable to deal with his newfound fame and, sadly, became another sellout..

To add some context, he is usuall very critical when other RPGs have a weak story and offer littler no real choice.. and yet, is this game it's not a big deal? It's not that he said that is this game but the fact that he is ignoring something that he was very critical in the past..
