Dan Stapleton, executive editor at IGN, makes up reason for why Black game journalists aren't hired

[daze23]

The game was broken at release and he couldn’t complete it, literally

Why can’t you dudes accept the 7 ? Why is this score hurting y’all so much

it was a rare bug that was patched before the review released. shyt didn't stop other reviewers from giving it a decent score

meanwhile BG3 at 96 on Opencritic with bugs galore in the 3rd Act. obviously people give the game the benefit of the doubt that these things will be fixed, but apparently IGN dude didn't feel that way about Prey

I don't even care about Starfield's 7, since it's not that much of an outlier. giving Prey 4/10 is crazy though

You would have an axe to grind except

Ah I see the problem now, it’s not that you wanted a great game, you wanted to feel good about the metacritic score so you could look and point and laugh at Sony fans.

There are plenty of 10’s from Xbox handpicked shill sites, why don’t you complain about those ?

Why are y’all so focused on 1 score out of 51 ? (Last I checked)

Nobody's stanning shyt. It's crazy how this particular outlet has you guys losing it to such a degree.

good on him for fixing the score

probably should have held off on the review. damage is done when you publish a review like that

But you are.

It’s not just about him. When you get on here splitting
hairs about a metacritc score, all you are doing is stanning the opinions of a dude that looks like this

Couldn’t be me

BG3 Act 3 is proof to me that reviewers don't finish games before they publish a review. I wouldn't be shocked if they've only played Act 1. I can't recall many of the reviews talking about Act . I am still on Act 2, but from many people I spoke with I heard it's incomplete. Plus, they're still trying to add stuff to act 3 because it was incomplete .

Wowwww this is a new all around low

On that note, will cop when the deck gets a bit more updates and I actually get some space for such a yuge ass game.

You're barking up the wrong tree.

Y'all are losing your shyt over this score to the point that you make posts like the one you made here. Or bump a two year old thread pretending to care about this. The meticritic score is good, but y'all can't be content with that. And that's what's so funny.

The gamespot reviewer seeing this IGN man get all the hate when he gave the same review
