Why are the review scores so low on meta? I was looking into getting this. Surprised at the score of 69

It's not fun. If it's not fun, why bother?

Fun is subjective.

If you find Pathologic 2 fun, I'd argue there's something seriouslt wrong with you. The game is enjoyed by its niche for many reasons, pure gameplay is not one of them.

>pure gameplay
I enjoy it precisely because of that. I just love survivals and games with resource management.

Same here. It made me understand, that I love hobo economy simulations and hoarding.

Because users actually have taste you fucking slavboo

It's aimed at a very specific niche of people. It's not a fun game, but you don't play it for fun. You play it to suffer. Unlike the quintessential "suffering" game Dark Souls, you don't ever get feelings of triumph in Pathologic. Things just keep getting worse and worse. You never feel like a hero or protagonist. The victory only comes at the end and even then, it's not a good feeling.

Filling up 2d bar charts in the game UI is not gameplay.

Sperging again about this?

Do ""game"" """journalists""" really think they are being clever?

>If you find this videogame I don't like fun, I'd argue there's something seriously wrong with you.
Great point and argument you raised there, jackass.

People play it for fun, otherwise they wouldn't play it at all. Don't listen to the dumbass journalists who try to reason why they hate the game into bullshit like "it's actually good because we all hate the game! it's good at making us hate!" No.

>original positive RPS review that gave the game a big boost in the west was written in response to a Eurogamer review that called it "Oblivion with cancer"
>nu-RPS review of the sequel trashes it and calls it "budget Skyrim"
It's like pottery.

RPS hasn't been good for well over a decade and then some.

jesus christ, are you the same guy from a month ago saying P2 is a walking sim?

In that case, Darkest Dungeon is what you should be playing.

It's your fault you keep biting

It's extremely divisive because some people get frustrated by the gameplay, but I have to recommend it. It feels exactly like playing a postmodern novel. the world is very intentionally crafted and the writing is honestly amazing.

Ever heard of personal taste? Others may find fun where you do not.

>souls games are about reaction, movment and practice.

Maybe now they are, but early souls-games was about making it at times unfairly difficult so you started to act cautious with an overwhelming feeling of dread. Pathologic is similar to that, but they take a step further where it forces you to accept defeat.

Oh, I'm sorry, I should have guessed you're a fucking senile boomer.
