The Morbius of gaming is almost here.

 

[Venom Snake]

 

[InterMusketeer]

I know it's about the journey and not the destination, but I can't help but feel that experiencing this game's story is completely pointless if it all ends with an asteroid impact.

Not that I'd be interested in this they/them snootfest otherwise.

 

[DonkeyPunchJr]

Movie fans got Barbie + Oppenheimer.

Gamers get Starfield + Goodbye Volcano High.


Don't listen to the green rats putting this game down. They just jealous.

 

[Thick Thighs Save Lives]

This OT is very heavy for some reason and is breaking GAF for me lol (haven't tried mobile).

 

[Draugoth]

Is this a school shooting game? I'm on board!!!

The game made by the fans has a school shooting ending.

 

[Jack Videogames]

By the way, Cavemanon will soon release their second game, I Wani Hug That Gator

Yes, in less time that GWH took to be released, Cavemanon released a better, longer, free Visual Novel (GWH is expected to clock in at around 5h, Snoot Game takes around 15) AND a demo for their next one

 

[Alebrije]

Leaked cutscene from the final boss, THE SUNSET.

 

[Brigandier]

I don't think this scores any lower than 100, It's going to be GOTG.

Definitely a 21/20 moment

 

[Go_Ly_Dow]

First 11/10 ever incoming!

 

[Soodanim]

 

[Jack Videogames]

Leaked cutscene from the final boss, THE SUNSET.

We all know the real final boss

 

[Markio128]

This game is going to be so good that I'm going to triplediplodocus.

 

[ElCasual]

With less bugs than Starfield but with more LGBT agenda than Doom Eternal.

 

[BlackTron]

Wait what? Is there still time to preorder??

 

[Celcius]

I wish this game would hurry up and come out. Not so that I can play it, but so that I can see the train wreck.

 

[Draugoth]

 

[Elder Legend]

Todd Howard must be biting his nails right now.

For real though: What are the odds on it getting a better critical reception than Starfield?

Not negligible imho.

 

[Elder Legend]

If anyone is curious- I will not be reviewing this game. I simply have no interest and i didnt bother reaching out to them. Also, they've decided to release it at the most dumbest and possible time. Not only was this game already dead on arrival but they made sure that it was 1000% dead because it comes out between Starfield, Sea of Stars, Blasphemous 2 and Armored 6. Very smart business decisions, where ever approved the release date or was okay with it deserves a platinum medal.

50/50 depends on the reviewers

If the reviewers are people like Kotaku then it will be a 90+

 

[Dynasty8]

50/50 depends on the reviewers

If the reviewers are people like Kotaku then it will be a 90+

Kotaku, Polygon and ReeeeEra have probably declared this as a diverse 11 out of 10.

 

[proandrad]

Okay, hear me out...

What if it's actually a good game?

 

[That Damn Kid]

 

[Pejo]

The most shocking thing I learned from the OP is that due to the PSN/Steam .pngs being transparent and dark text that Draugoth uses the light GAF theme....

 

[MudoSkills]

I personally cannot wait to answer the call of snooty and help Fang make the right choices in the run up to the mass extinction event that will define their teenage years.

 

[Bo_Hazem]

97-98% easy.

 

[DonkeyPunchJr]

Starfield should add a quest where you can divert a meteor and cause it to crash into a planet filled with degenerate otherkin.

I would rate Starfield a 100/10.

I know people always say review sites gets paid for high scores.
But I wonder if review sites can pay a dev/publisher to not send in a review copy.

 

[nowifenolife]

This gaym makes me wanna quit gaming

 

[Danjin44]

 

[DarthPutin]

The morale of the story: once persons start identifying as they/thems, the world is about to end!

11 ouf of 10, obviously.

and it's for scalies, not furries. The More You Know!

As someone who has reviewed games professionally for the last 10 years I can tell you that neither of these dumb myths are true. All it is, is just people being dumb and fighting over plastic boxes looking to fuel a console war and make people look bad because they gave the game a score that they did not like. So they start throwing shades of "Paid off review, etc..."

However, I will tell you though I had been approached before by a particular publisher asking me if they could use quotes from one of our reviews to paint the game in a positive light, despite the fact that the game received a really bad score from us. I won't tell you what publisher it was or what game for the sake of privacy and professionalism but basically, we gave the a game a lower than average score and only had 1 nice thing to say about it, they wanted to quote that particular part and use it in advertising for their accolades. I told them respectfully - no you may not, the game did not receive a good score and we don't want our integrity to look like crap for the sake of your advertising. Obviously, I said it nicer, but you get the idea.

This happened to me only once in the entirety of my career. I will tell you though, that OpenCritic and MetaCritic average is a do or die situation for publishers and the PR agencies that they work with regardless of what the general gaming public believes. The meta score is the holy grail in today's day for game developers and publishers.

 

[Xaero Gravity]

So hard rn

 

[Skifi28]

The real reason I bought Baldur's gate was to help me pass the time until the True GOTY.

 

[justiceiro]

I don't understand how this game got such levels of preemptive hate, but I believe no matter the direction after release, it will be a sight to behold.

pffffff!!!

 

[Happosai]

Resetera's GOTY

That comment deserves gold.

 

[diffusionx]

stunning hand-drawn art and character animation

stunning hand-drawn art

stunning

 

[Meicyn]

lmao

 

[Crayon]

Okay, hear me out...

What if it's actually a good game?

We'll all be eating snoot.

 

[Danjin44]

Okay, hear me out...

For me game with 2D hand drawn visual, the artstyle is really important and to me the artstyle of this game is really off putting.

 

[kvltus lvlzvs]

Starfield should add a quest where you can divert a meteor and cause it to crash into a planet filled with degenerate otherkin.

Maybe someone will mod it in later. Would be glorious

 

[mopspear]

She high on my volcano till I snoot

 

[Raonak]

Is this a free ps+ game by any chance?

In any case, this is gonna be a more entertaining game than starfield.
