Dont underestimate small sites trying to get the clicks
You are walking a tightrope with comments like that. No need.

Welp. Now you can't run away from this madness. I have a class in 2 hours, hope I don't end up laughing in class
Agree completely, I also feel it's extremely important for this game to score well, this genre need an amazing game after so much time, and not amazing 86 MC ROTTR style, I want ND to prove that this style of game can sit next to TW3, MGS5 and other games that got 9+ MC this gen.
And I loved every second of it.

The most important thing is sale (don't worry about this one though) because we need to let publishers know that not everygame needs to be open-world with checklist missions

I'm way too hype for reviews lol. It's been a while. I keep checking this thread in between Ratchet.
94.
I'm sorry, I realize what I said is wrong. I'll be sure to not let it happen again, I apologize.

Agree. When QB failed to hit critically, it scared me for the entire linear story-driven action genre set.
Can you imagine being a publisher, putting in tens of millions of dollars into a new IP, which is a single-player only game that takes years to build and 10 hours to complete... and then it reviews only okay and sells only okay, not enough to recoup the budget? Will you ever take that risk again?
And then you read the reviews, and you see the criticisms -- too much like a movie but not a good story... too linear... not enough replay value... no multiplayer.... Gee, I wonder if that'll encourage you to stick to your old open-world IP next time, or focus on online-heavy games?
Not just shooters like Uncharted or QB either. Think back to God of War III. Sweet game, good seller. But it's 6 hours long, ridiculously expensive. Why would you take that risk again in the future? One entry that fails to hit can kill an independent studio.
Shit, Epic even complained about Gears being too risky and expensive, to the point where they went FTP. Ugh.
Starting early, are we?

Still no "leak". Usually we have some "accident leak" reviews right now. Guess Sony ninjas work in full force

A company being excited for their new game is a huge slap in the face to all the fans that liked their old games.
Is it stupid that I'm more hyped to see the reception than the game itself...kind of...?
I mean I love this series, I know this game is incredible, but I'm excited for ND and the Uncharted gang for the send off, and the press reception seems like such an event.
30 goddamn minutes!

It's really telling how sad reviews were last gen when you put U3, a game with 92 MC (undeserved imo) next to BvS, a movie with 40 MC (deserved) as two review threads that had many meltdowns.
I really hope we passed the days in videogames than a 92 MC can cause a meltdown.

They're under a new name but it's almost all of the old staff.

The review thread has the potential to be beautiful.
I'm really excited for it.
7/10. Just imagine it. It's what dreams are made of.

You're not alone lol. I paused Ratchet and Clank for this.
I'm way too hype to see the reception. I think more so because of how it seems like a lot of games haven't really gotten REALLY high scores within the last 2+ years. Plus this is Uncharted after all. xD
Guess so.

They're back. They're called Easy Allies now. Enjoy! ✌🏽️✨

Can someone quickly shop Drake and Elena's face onto this?
They do review-in-progress scores now and then update when they review is complete.

Maybe she hasn't played MP
They do that bullshit now where they post scores "IF WE HAD TO SCORE IT NOW"
Thought that was for MP heavy games only tbh
Aren't the GT guys in the no game will ever get a perfect score camp? So probably not, though maybe they've changed that with them using a star scale now.

Don't know about you guys, but I find meltdowns over reviews just as funny as people calling out for meltdowns.

Who is reviewing it at GB?
Mine is
IGN - 10/10
Gamepost 9/10
Polygon 9/10
GB 5/5 now that i know dan is reviewing it.
Overall Meta 95.
Barring the fact that smaller sites that are aggregated tend to be much more forgiving...
There is also the problem with your blanket premise in general.
