Game's trash
I've only played it 30 minutes but I doubt I'll spend any more time playing it. Thank god for Gamepass.

EDIT: Looks like the average review score agrees with me. Good game Scorn fanboys - I've won this round.

Playing for 30 minutes and casting final judgement doesn't make for a bad game. Means you barely gave it a chance or it's simply not for you, also doesn't make it a bad game by any means.


I got bored playing portal. Imagine me saying now that portal is a bad game.
It's just an opinion. I have zero stake in the game. It popped up on Gamepass. I tried it until it wasn't fun and gave me the impression it wouldn't be fun down the road, and I stopped. It's not rocket science. You don't have to spend 5 hours playing a bad game to realize it's a bad game. Well, maybe you do - but I know what I like.

If you said Portal was a bad game based on 30 minutes of gameplay, I would completely agree with you and say I reached that same conclusion in 5 minutes and that I feel bad you wasted 25 additional minutes.

Yeh, because if one dislikes the game it automatically means they are a COD fan. Always has been and always will be a lazy argument.
Don't expect any genuine arguments from fans of the game. Expect ad-hominems, strawmen, and Jester trophies because that's the only way they can respond.

The critics aren't even going to stand up for this one.

Absolute agree. Scorn has a fantastic art design, clever puzzles, and I also like the mostly peacefull gameplay and the focus on exploration and understanding the puzzles.

There are many times when movies, TV shows and video games start out bad and then turn out great.
Even GoT start out properly with season 3. So your argument having 30 minutes in game is imho INVALID.

Cheers

Can you please elaborate on why you found this game less than ideal?
Thanks, I'd appreciate it. If you respond please do so like you're talking to a newbie, which I am.

Cheers

Thats why your profile looks so empty and dead.
Steam points are worth to farm.

If I wanted "art" I would go to a gallery, I want a game, but you carry on with that pretentious tone, you aren't fooling anyone.
Videogames are art. Without art, all you'd play would be corridor shooter maze game. You don't understand how art changes everything in a game.

This game has a very specific art direction and you have to understand it to fully comprehend why this game is built like this.

Personally, I'm loving the game so far. I think its divisive for sure. Both sides are talking past each other and missing the point a bit. Not every game needs to be, nor should be, for everyone.

To some people games are art. All about immersion in a world that feels deep and has a clear art design adding to the believability of that world. Its more about exploring a space, environmental story telling, piecing together purpose, lore and gameplay from in-game details. More is implied that explicitly stated. Things like puzzles and combat add to the environment and immersion more than they are staples of a gameplay loop. Action takes a backseat to immersion and world-building.

To other people games are much more about experience. Immersion is important but it only occurs when the player is engaged in gameplay. Action takes much more precedence and story can be minimal, even absent, if the actual gameplay loop is satisfying enough. Its more about engaging with systems and mastering them than lore or world-building. Story takes a backseat to action and gameplay that keeps the player engaged.

Neither of these things is better than the other. Its just a matter of taste or opinion. One is not stupid for finding games like Scorn boring or tedious. One is not pretentious for finding it artistic and intelligent. Immersion comes in all sorts of flavors and not everyone has to agree. A good game that actually does what it sets out to really should not appeal to everyone. Its just not possible.
