really ign?

[IceBorg]

with all the problems this game has ign gave it a 9. the constant disconnects, the always online, the devs silencing anyone who complains on their discord, the janky menu and tons more. this is not a 9 out oof 10 game. yes its fun and i have a lot of hours in it because of that but the bias towards sony is crazy.

Pretty much this. Gameplay is near perfection aside from a few minor balance issues and bugs. But good god... Do the servers and any code even remotely related to them, SUCK.

they dont suck they just have way way way more people than they thought would play the game

palworld expected 50k and got 2 million and their servers were just fine

Not exactly true... they had just as rocky of a start as HD 2:

And Palworld went down from a large player base of 2 mil to about 400k in a couple weeks. And following the steam forums they have as many issues and even a growing list of bugs that HD 2 does not. So the rosy picture is not completely there for it either. :)

It's almost like they reviewed the game and not networking.

No they weren't, they had dc/connection issues, servers reseting peoples progress as in they had to randomly start all over cuz the server crashed etc. I love Palworld but the offical servers suck and still suck even now. I think they fixed the wipe problem, but there is still connection issues and such. As Palworld has no anti-cheat hacking/cheating is insane in the offical servers. Its why anyone will reccomend you host your own dedi or join a fan community that does, or even host one local for up to you and 3 friends, or even play single player which is completly offline.

I'd say worse, at least HD2 doesn't have a bug that wipes all saves on the offical servers randomly like they did at first. Never happened to privatly run dedis or local servers it was only a offical server issue.

gameplay is a 9.. server capactity is at a 4.

gameplay is clunky and dated

you would have made up your mind in the first 2 hours and refund, the game is good but you are mad

If you're older, you know game "journalists" were always known to be paid actors from the get go. Nothing has changed, except there's a lot more of them holding their hands out now.

I always find it hilarious that people STILL think that people are all hard on for Sony and not Microsoft. Maybe if games are just good that they get recognized. I rather have a server issue then a ♥♥♥♥♥♥ game on top of server issues. Make good games people will come. Its a simple concept not known my many now.

the real problem people are naive and following these groups, since a long time.
type the game's name in youtube, pick up any youtuber there, and you d be enlightened about anything you can ask about specific game. hell, even if that youtuber is sponsored by devs.

[Cryptic]

Pretty much any "professional" gaming journal nowadays is just paid to spew out whatever the developers tell them to in a good light

I use common sense. Not many folks these days do. Like the SIMP's on here saying OMG guys stop being mean to the Dev's nonsense. I spent the damn coin on their game, so i have a right to as a consumer.
