This is a forced early review and I personally suspiciously believe this is to hype the game more then anything. With no score along with the hyperbolic undertone its blatant.

Edit: Oh they dont put in scores. Ok

Yeah this is so suspicious, definitely did it for hype. It's not like the embargo is up in like 15 hours or anything.

I hope that was a joke post
 
No-scoring is bad. I am not joking on that. It is lame. It is unprofessional. It is used by people who want to use flowery language to avoid just writing simply how they feel with a score. It is deceitful. It is bad for gamers. It is bad for me.

My stringless violin plays for you...
 
LMAO....there is a difference in watching a game and playing it bro. People who played the game...can't argue with you?

Of course there is. But I've already described watching what looks like blatantly bad stealth. I know what bad stealth looks like. It's hard to imagine how bad looking stealth is actually good stealth. That would be a good read.
 
I have an idea for a review site WebmGameReviews.com

Show me good stealth in any RPG or Action game that is not a core stealth game? Other then games like Dishonored any game that has stealth doesn;t have good stealth. As long as it's serviceable, but even stealth games have awful AI most of the time.

If you are serious, I got juniored for making strange threads. It happens. My new threads will be more serious and less spontaneously strange.

Shocker lol.

You are clearly trying to downplay this game.
 
I can already see the goalposts moving after the reviews roll in tomorrow. "Remember GTA IV? The media is just overhyping the game. It's actually crap as you'll note with the following GIFs."

I don't need to show you good stealth in your attempt to thwart stealth criticism hiding behind genre classification. The game has bad stealth. It's not even okay. It's bad. To compare it to Metal Gear Solid, Thief, Tenchu, Assasin's Creed, or Zelda: Ocarina of Time's stealth segments is cruel.

Alright, I'm convinced we're all being taken for a ride now.

In other words you have notihng, got ya.

Any game that is not a stealth game has bad stealth compared to MGS, you are reaching.

Lets compare a stealth game to the stealth in a game that is an action RPG LMAO. May as well compare the story in TW3 to Tertris. Different games aim for different things.
 
It's funny reading some of the criticism of the games from those that only seen videos of it. I mean there are some fair criticism like the human ai and things like that. But if things like: Grass not high enough, too much fog, not enough trees, "too much like shadows of mordor since both have in game cutscenes" and "looking too much like a ubi game" (because it has things every game including witcher 3 has) is the big problem some people seem to get stuck on. Then I think it will be fine.

I mean I'm all for not being blinded by hype and I've read some things that I agree could be improved upon. But the most vocal critics in these threads have a tendency to only bring up the stupidest things
 
The poster is trying to dismiss the bad stealth criticism by "but it's not a stealth game." Well, it has stealth in it. And that means it is incorporating the stealth aspect. It is stealth-lite. Just like Far Cry 2 is stealth-lite.
No shit, thats exactly what I am saying. Compare an action RPG to a Stealth based game on steath only is moronic. Again may as well compare Last of us story to rocket league.

Why not compare Rocket leagues gameplay to COD, and ignore everything else about said games, context is important, you have none.

It's not a problem if the game has poorly-made stealth mechanics; it is a problem when the game poorly blends stealth mechanics into a game and lets users kill enemies in front of enemies without them reacting to such actions.
