keep in mind that the Xbox shill sites will average between 85-100.

fair, objective and trustworthy sites will need to engage the "Xbox tax" to bring down to reality those hyperinflated scores. Just saying... I don't want people crying about it.

Edited for accuracy.

Oh and no Xbox tax exists.
It's a excuse for large amounts of not up to par releases.

Sometimes I think the games' industry is the worst of all. People hope a product of the industry will be bad because is from a different brand. Also, people won't even play/use something unless/only after some reviewers tell them so. Can't think of any industry where analysts have so much power and people who loves the hobby wish so much for the failure of such hobby.

In reality they’ve been picking reviewers and have a lower number of reviews. The Xbox scores are positively skewed, not a Xbox Tax.

 

[Robb]

I’ll guess 80-85.

 

[Topher]

8.387

 

[mortal]

Cool OP Draugoth . Man, you should make more OTs

80-85 seems like a safe bet, but I'll go a bit higher and say somewhere between 85-90.

 

[demigod]

78ish. Damn why can’t we see who voted, lol @ 95-100.

 

[LordBritish]

83 because lack of combat... this is more of a telltale game for me though

 

[Mozzarella]

I'm predicting 88

 

[Agent_4Seven]

87

....

Pre-load is now available on Steam

 

[VolticArchangel]

The first game has a 80-88 Meta across all 4 platforms.

So, I'm guessing that this is going to be better than the first. 86-90, 87/88 to pinpoint score.

 

[demigod]

They have said 10-12 hours in interviews, where do you get these numbers. This is just categorically false.

Son are you on crack? They said it’s around the first game, so most likely less than 8 hours. Probably 5ish hours.

The movie industy is similar.

 

[Represent.]

Goddamn Canadian prices. Even the cheap games are fucking expensive. But I had to buy it. Fuck gamepass, these devs deserve my money for making this kind of game.

'around the first game'
'probably 5ish hours'

I own both the PS4/5 and XBO versions despite the game being on game pass before, will probably buy this at a later time too to support NT.

 

[PSYGN]

I just realized Ninja Theory made Heavenly Sword, kinda interesting but mostly not that they would also go on to create a game named Hellblade.

 

[ChorizoPicozo]

A lot of people here have trouble recognizing red flags, it seems. I'm worried about your personal relationships.

 

[demigod]

If this wasn't on Gamepass, 75% wouldn't even buy it until a huge sale. Especially with the new rumor that it takes 7 hours for a 100% playthrough with all collectables.

Please learn to read.

 

[Bumblebeetuna]

I hope the audio is as good as the first one. When I bought Hellblade years ago I had a cheap headset. Now I have a super nice one and playing today the audio was easily the best I have ever heard in a vidya game. Thunder and water effects especially amazing.

I'm not going to argue with someone that shows this little competence.

 

[Borowski_1]

86 is my guess

 

[adamsapple]

Please learn to read.

My guy needing to quote someone else's post to deflect from his own failure.

Of course you won’t because you’re lying. A quick google will tell you the length of the game.

You're calling other liars and telling them to google the length of the game after saying it's 'probably 5ish' hours even after seeing the completion picture I posted. Lord have mercy, lol.

 

[CityHunter1981]

80-90 because of inclusion and politics.
60-70 if reviewers would be honest and don’t want to appear emphatic to the subject…

 

[Sacred]

Of course you won’t because you’re lying. A quick google will tell you the length of the game.

The first game took me 11hrs and 39min to fully complete. They are saying the length will be very similar which says to me 10-12 hours. Most linear games are 5-7 hours if you rush through them.

What are you talking about? Your picture is the first game. What we all are talking about is the second game.

 

[demigod]

Ok, links to where the devs said it’ll be 10-12 hours? Not what you completed.

 

[adamsapple]

What are you talking about? Your picture is the first game. What we all are talking about is the second game.

When you say 'it's around the first game' but then throw in 'probably 5ish hours', which is *not* around the first game, you know you're wrong.

 

[demigod]

He said 7 hours for 100% collectibles. Now subtract being a completionist, you don’t think its possible to do in 5ish? Do the math.

 

[Hero_Select]

my guess is around 82%.. which seems in-line with most people here, I hope the game is good but I don't care for it

 

[adamsapple]

You're citing someone talking about 'rumors' they heard somewhere as some kind of definitive evidence here.

Let it go, maboy. You're not even interested in the game.

 

[pasterpl]

Between 80-90 is my guess so went with 86%-90% option.

 

[JimmyRustler]

Lost all hope in MS and their studios. Doubt this will even hit 80 on average.

 

[vaibhavpisal]

It climbed steam charts a bit, from 200+ position.

 

[nial]

Goddamn Canadian prices. Even the cheap games are fucking expensive. But I had to buy it. Fuck gamepass, these devs deserve my money for making this kind of game.

Well, at least someone gets it.

Okay? Still doesn't answer my question as to why you still believe having a GP sub is enough to support this game.

 

[adamsapple]

Not bad at all.

 

[Bumblebeetuna]

Man why are y’all wasting time arguing with the warrior who LOL reacts to any post in any way favorable to Xbox. Just let them continue their sad existence in peace and give them more posts to read and hate react to.

 

[yazenov]

My good man you've already supported the game by downloading it on Game pass

What's it called? Engagement.

 

[Oddvintagechap]

I ignore red flags when im thirsty.

That being said, this is the least hype I seen a game get. MS really kept it all over wraps.

 

[Bartski]

Mid-high 80s.

 

[Balducci30]

Assuming low to mid 80’s. Lower if it’s being judged like an AAA game

 

[Mr Reasonable]

Astonishingly sad how he chooses to waste his life.

Just ignore phils balls, he is a troll that looking for trouble

 

[Kenneth Haight]

 

[Perrott]

Before the Developer Direct, I had high hopes for it.

But after learning about it's limited scope and how incredibly similar it is to the barebones action/adventure game that was its predecessor, I'm afraid I'll have to go with low 70s.

 

[SEGAvangelist]

keep in mind that the Xbox shill sites will average between 88-95.

They all hate Phil after the 3rd party stuff. You can sleep now.

You mean just like the warriors who jump to xbox's defense at even the slightest hint of criticism of absolutely anything xbox related no matter how legitimate it is?

 

[havoc00]

This will set the next gen standard
