Famitsu gave this a 36/40
Famitsu gave this game a 9/9/9/9 - a 36/40. I don't know whether to laugh or cry. I don't normally go onto boards for games I don't own to stir ♥♥♥♥ but I'm completely and utterly baffled as to how that happened. Any time someone brings up a Famitsu score like they think they have a point when they're defending a game, just point them to their score for Umbrella Corps. I don't suppose they actually wrote a review for this and there's a place that actually translates their reviews into English? I'd love to read about how they scored this.

-No they don't.
-Japanese gamers opinions about this game isn't really different from Western ones.
-Famitsu is in no way representative of anything but itself. The quality of their reviews is constantly mocked everywhere.

Certainly doesn't deserve less than a 5.

Don't get me wrong, I have no problem with people liking the game. I like Mighty No. 9, but never in my wildest dreams would I give it a 9/10.

famitsu give any garbage weeb game a high score whilst giving vastly superior western games a lower score, they are xenophobic and racist to the core and are probably heavily in denial about how bad the japanese gaming industry is now

Two batallions just of people i know would rate it even better if you ask them in private. But it is kind of common sense among those cells to notoriously vote the red thumb for Umbrella Corps just because.

They love it anyways and grind it 24/7 of course.

This is a good point. This game also feels very much like a Japanese take on competitive shooters. There is less emphasis on visuals and more on fast mechanics, despite if it feels janky or different.

I think this is the number one thing people are missing with this game. It's far from a broken or bad game, it just needs more content and a price cut. Also, some marketing, because tons of people still haven't even heard of it.

Just another reason I always laugh when people throw up reviews as actually meaning something about said game in a thread.
I want to get this game soo bad but I just can not with its 1h single player. And say what you want about it being a multi game, it does have a SP mode.
