Could be the new review method – the further a game gets slapped the more to avoid!
Maybe how tight the hug is if good… hmmm
But how do you interpret it, when the “review” involves intercourse with the game? Even further, how do you interpret it, if it’s the game doing it to you?
Intercoitus
In regards to your second question, wow comes to mind…
Gives new meaning to a phrase like: “Can’t trust it as far as you can throw it.” ‘Cept it’s being slapped
Darktide has so much promise. The combat feels great. Everything else is crap.
Darktide – another example that releasing games early and unfinished doesn’t pay off. Have people learned nothing from Cyberpunk?
Can’t really be compared, as Cyberpunk sucked despite getting numerous delays (it was developed for like 9 years) and an entire year of crunching. It’s a game for other lessons (don’t scrap everything you have done in 4 years, don’t alienate your best devs, don’t be greedy, don’t make your workers quit after a few months of work, don’t promise stuff you have not even started developing, etc.)
Seems a lot of companies have made those errors both before and after Cyberpunk. Sim City, No Man’s Sky, Fallout 76, just to name a few.
I loved Cyberpunk. I’m not excusing anything CDPR did wrong with that release (I hear playstation fellas couldn’t even boot the damn thing!) but it ran pretty well (relatively speaking) on my PC and there was a lot to like.
Indeed. I bought it for PC a few months after release with a handful of patches under its belt, and a small discount, and I did so with open eyes. It was a whole lot of fun and looked amazing.
It was utterly and completely botched on console, but on PC it was a good game – not great because it was still lacking some depth and quality in the story, but what was there was very good.
there is always rock and stone. Rock and stone For-ever.
FOR KARL!
i loved watching the dad of boy series not one id play but fun to watch
I look forward to playing this series some day if I can handle it. I still haven’t played Last of Us other than on YouTube.
I’m interested to see Ragnarok in here, Tim. I just got a PS5 this month, and the reviews I read seemed to indicate the game is rather lackluster, and doesn’t really give a sense of being a god and doing crazy things.
Anyone care to weigh in? I’m deep into Zero Dawn, and am definitely going to get Elden Ring soon. I haven’t played any other God of War games, if that makes a difference.
You literally go toe-to-toe with Thor, and Odin and Heimdall… I’m not sure how much more “godlike” you can get.
At a 94% metacritic rating, it seems to me like any reviews calling Ragnarok “lackluster” would be in the minority.
I had to think about what exactly gave me that impression. I think it was your comic about the handholding and some Reddit comments on the same, (doesn’t give you a chance to solve things yourself,) that initially made me hesitant. Then I googled reviews when we were considering what console to get, and the one we happened upon said something like “it’s good, but it’s not good *enough*. Sure, you do this, but you’re a *god*, you should do *THIS*!!” So I guess I maybe dismissed it unfairly without looking into it more. I’ll put it back on my… Read more »
I would def suggest getting God of War 2018 first as Ragnarok is a direct sequel, or at least watching a let’s play of it.
Big fan of 40k here (in fact the reason I discover this webcomic…Ethan and his Necron ball…hehe), but I think I will never play Darktide…sorry, but my wife and me want to play it together in the same couch
ah Fatshark, ya make some good shit, but ironically it has to ferment after being crapped out to become good instead of coming out good and getting poor by comparison over time. Honestly, I’ve had little issues with the game as is, I still come back and each game missions go on is consistently fun. I’m not the type to care about cash shop stuff, as I just don’t spend more on games after the basic access unless it’s actual DLC. So it’s just a feeling of profound dissatisfaction at the absolute lack of things to do after I max… Read more »
