Well lads, it's over.
Game got a lower review score then star wars outlaws, best refund it now if you pre purchased, clearly outlaws is the superior game and this one can't even get basic melee combat right.

The game journos have spoken.

Metacritic:

Also numbers aren't everything. Substance of review matters more. Sales numbers matter more. Outlaws sales from what has been mentioned so far were pretty abysmal.

All that brand damage that Disney has done to Starwars has finally come home to roost I guess. Outlaws doesnt seem much different from that licensed Avatar Ubislop game that they put out which sold well.

For Metacritic (an awful site) an 83 puts in somewhere between 772th and 940th place in their PC game rankings over all time. Between 215th and 276th place for games from the last 5 years. And between 35th and 41th for this year.

Which is still pretty bad for a $60 title really.

Is Metacritic really an awful site when all it does is take the average of different review sites into an overall score to give people a quick and easy to see the general consensus? That's just pretty basic math.

The only way journalist can play game is if there's yellow paint everywhere they need to go.

Holy f*ck they gave that trash a 7/10??? 😂 IGN is so cooked.

Bruh, there's a part in that game where you get two cops to kill each other by telling the female one that the male one is doing 'mansplaining' to her and she shoots him, oh my god if I didn't know better I'd think that game was mocking the most unhinged progressives, but it isn't parody or satire some f*cking how. They unironically put Cancelling and Bullying people as a power in the game, they really are like this, they think they are good. The mind boggles.

tbf they weight certain review sites higher than others, and ignore that IGN has like 2 dozen different outlets with IGN india, china, brazil etc etc which they abuse to influence the overall rating.

Apparently the most infamous one is Edge magazine which is weighted very high and has a reputation for giving brutal reviews. So you gets fans happy their game has a high score on metacritic and then the Edge review gets added and tanks the score lmao

They don't actually play them, at least not longer than one sitting. They play the bare minimum amount of time, just enough to form their "opinion". They only say they like what would help their image to do so, such as the case of DustBorn which is not remotely a 7/10 game. That's what they gave it though for reasons that are incredibly obvious.

It stopped being about the games a long time ago. Just like Rotten Tomatoes, it's only about what image the "journalist" wants to project so people will click them. Their own agenda comes first every time, which spits in the face of what a journalist is supposed to stand for.

Never trust the internet.

Critics give bad review, cause the game doesn't have a female that is lame and gay.
It's too toxic masculinity to them.. Are anyone actually reading reviews from game media sites? I always look at player userratings in both movies and games.

Review sites are awful anyway. 90% of games get a 7/8. Math don't math.

I mean Homeworld 3 got an 8/10, and it's ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ awful.
You'll find as you get older and expand your world view that...
1) One person's opinion doesn't have to agree with yours and can, in fact, be genuinely different and look for different things over what you are looking for. And that's ok. It's just a ******* opinion. It can't hurt you.
2) A review isn't something that is made to justify your purchase. It's there to give someone's subjective opinion on a product from their perspective and what they value. It's not always going to line up with you, but you can still find useful information to use and compare to what you want out of the product and can help you make an informed purchasing decision.
3) A review isn't an objective fact, so please stop acting like it's a bible verse. You can freely disagree with another's opinion without acting like a toddler about it. It's not hard.

Find a youtuber you can trust and you'll be fine for the most part. Worthabuy who is a cynical old fart who hates moderndayisms and places gameplay above all and rates most games below a 7 has given it a 9/10 which is exceedingly rare for him.

And I think you aren't worth listening to, so I'm taking that out of the equation. Muting. Take care.

Anyone still relying on the opinions of others when it comes to decision making is a lost cause at this point.

That's how you don't learn anything. It doesn't cost anything to get a review of a product. You're telling me you're just going to buy a car you have no information about before anyone there shows it to you and have no idea how old it is or what it might need as far as fixes, because getting a couple of opinions would be too much for you?
Good luck then.

A low score? Such trivial judgements are beneath my concern. Criticism cannot deter us. Let them say what they will.We do not fight for praise or glory, but for duty and honour for the Emperor.
