Yeah people are just out to get PS4 exclusives :mjlol:

In realty all of the PS4 exclusives so far have been graphics focused affairs with little substance. People want more than just pretty graphics.

Bloodborne is the first gameplay focused game and it will review much better than the other ps4 exclusives
Breh you good?? You been in this thread far too long man. :snoop:

IMO, it seems that PS4 exclusives are graded "tighter" than the competition. things overlooked or given a pass on in other games get scrutinized more with PS4 games.

What do you think?
Well Halo Master Chief Collection was getting higher scores from some of these outlets and the multiplayer still has issues and has had them for months. The developer just recently canceled a beta for a patch to fix a product that should have worked as advertised day one. Perhaps this has more to do with brand recognition and many of these outlets being unable to fully go all in on a brand name game that has major backing like Halo or Assassin's Creed.

There was nothing wrong with matchmaking when most reviews came out, and there's still a hell of a lot more content and fun in MCC than The Order even without the multiplayer.

Y'all need to quit reaching for excuses. Ryse got the same reception but I saw none of you coming up with theories for why or claiming bias in reviewers.

I can't comment on Ryse because I haven't got around to playing it yet. I just recently bought it on Steam for $10 so I will play it.

How much content should a single player interactive linear movie have? This isn't a choose your own adventure game either it's straight up a linear single player story that you play through. Again I'm talking about people reviewing and judging content for what it actually is not what they expect it to be or what they think it should have.

If I had to give a score to what I've played so far I'd lean towards the 75-80 range. Scores in the 60 range should be reserved for broken games that don't even function the way they're supposed to not well made games that do what they're advertised to do and actually do it well.

I do have problems with The Order. The murky plot that starts in the middle of the events and doesn't even bother to fill you in on what's really going on especially with the back story and world state. The slow methodical pacing where you have to literally walk around from point A to B and I mean slowly walk. The AI partners that mostly don't help you out at all and are just window dressings that seldom kill anything. The enemy AI that uses the Uncharted style take cover and when time goes on too long chuck grenades over and over while staying behind cover and doesn't seem to form any strategy other than that. The fact that The Order is supposed to be fighting "half-breeds" but you spend 90% of the game fighting "rebels" (What are they rebelling against anyway? The Queen? The Order? Why am I at chapter 8 of 16 and that has yet to be revealed?) The cast is also a bit cliche and dry. There really aren't any stand out characters so far.

The game isn't without faults but criticizing a game for being an interactive movie when that's what it's supposed to be is silly.

No when reviewers had access it was direct matches set up by Microsoft . They had no idea about the matchmaking issues until after they assigned scores and published their reviews.
remember Sim City 2013? Game came out and was proven broken and mainstream outlets amended their score?

It should have enough so that people felt they got a clear coherent story. Not an armature truncated story built with the sole purpose of setting up a sequel.

And again this line of "review it for what it is" is dumb. For one most of the criticisms are about what the game is. Short unfinished story, bad pacing, mediocre characters, shallow gameplay, non-fun or interesting QTE.

For two by using that logic then reviews are not needed. We should just listen to what the dev says their vision is and every game is perfect.

If I had to give a score to what I've played so far I'd lean towards the 75-80 range. Scores in the 60 range should be reserved for broken games that don't even function the way they're supposed to not well made games that do what they're advertised to do and actually do it well.
This is your opinion but that's obviously not how reviewers score the games. Broken games don't get 60. Crappy games get 60

Nobody is criticizing it for that. Again plenty of interactive movie games are recieved very well. The reviews don't say "this is a movie game so its not good" they say "this is a movie game and the movie isn't very good"

Some outlets changed their halo score. And again y'all reaching for non comparable situations.


Sim city didn't work AT ALL people couldn't even play it. Halo MCC has hours of content that always works AND even though there is matchmaking issues, you can still get online and play some good matches.

Not similar situations at all
