Anyone noticed how the more critical reviews seem to have all been unscored so far? like Arstechnica, Polygon, Skill Up, etc.

Applying a number to a review just allows plebs to boil down your opinion.

Jej

they're trying to circumvent getting blacklisted by writing a negative review but not scoring it so it doesn't hurt the metacritic rating.

1000% this.

LMAO the tides are turning.

>Anyone noticed how the more critical reviews seem to have all been unscored so far? like Arstechnica, Polygon, Skill Up, etc.
really makes you think that by withholding a LOW numeric score, it won't show up on Metacritic, ultimately dragging the overall score down.
Remember how this also happened with Deaht Stranding where some reviewers clearly hated every second of it, yet surprisingly decided to not slap a number onto it and just leave it at a wall of text rant. Both are Sony published games. That's just a coincidence though. Nothing is going on here. Move along. There surely can't be bigger things at play and lots of money and benefits and possible blacklistings involved, no, sir.

I feel bad for the level designer, all that effort to make a nice post apocalypse Seattle, for it to be put into this awful story.

Which is about right. The 10/10s AND 9/10 are completely out of sorts though.

I have a feeling there's going to be all sorts of leaks or interviews regarding the development of TLOU2. Remember how they were complaining about working conditions and such right around when it got delayed indefinitely

Journalists are based when they agree with my opinion.

>is beyond your control
Lmao why make a "game" then

Literally this.
They're not taking the high ground with "we won't low ourselves to give it a score", they're just pussies.

Undertale did it better

This game is like how spec ops the line wants you to feel bad about what you've done times a million since in that game its secondary to the other themes. Where as in TLOU2 thats the entire theme

its dumb, murdering your enemies is justified in a lawless world, the only fucking moral here is that Joel didn't murder enough of them and got reappraisal-ed, everything else is just chaff.

trying to convince me of a law of nature being "wrong" is insane, you kill your enemies or they come and kill you.

>kill 100 people
>but let go a one person that was your end goal
>this is progressive, brave and trully gamebreaking
>revenge bad...
So... beautiful... even fucking Naruto made revenge plot better.
