Why were journos so harsh on this game? It's getting great reception from the fans
>>
>>727668907
Because those fans are coping basedboys that can't mentally handle acknowledging that the game they were "hyped" for the last 18 years is a disappointment
>>
>>727669126
Reading comprehension of a shill.

Backloggd.com has the actual reviews

Huh. I'm surprised the internet didn't dogpile on it and review bomb the shit out of it like they usually do.
>>
Most of those users probably didn't beat the game yet, and I bet a lot of journalists didn't either cause 80 is too high.
>>
>>727669332
because the game is unironically really fucking good

>>727668907
this was at 7.5 yesterday btw

why are nintard manchildren obsessed with review scores and sales?

Journos seem to be on an "anti" Nintendo train because sucking their dicks doesn't cut it anymore for gettint clicks.

Normies seem to actually like it, they acknowledge the bad parts too but it doesn't affect their enjoyment from the rest of the game.
>>
>>727670109
Normies like it because /v/ is out of touch with reality.
Normies LOVE millennial humor and Marvel writing.
>>
>>727670109
Seriously is it just hard to say that the game is still good even if it suffers from a 10 years dev cycle?
>>
>>727670181
Absolutely not bro, Marvel has been losing a lot of steam even between normies. Normalfags are still normalfags but their standards have changed
>>
>>727670109
Everyone who posts shit like this has not beaten the game and has no idea why people are upset. The ending is abysmal. The middle is a masterpiece in comparison.
>>
>>727670181
my man stop being stuck in 2018
>>
>>727670181
it's more that the writing is just small part of the game and the rest is peak classic Prime
>>
>>727670085
No. There's an enemy you defeat and then go inside of to then lay a power bomb inside, which isn't exactly exciting. Otherwise, one boss is finished off with the Control Beam, going down their throat.

The game is sometimes called Metroid Prime 4/10 for a reason.
>>
>>727670109
Their whole identity seems to be latched on being a literal contrarian.
>>
>>727668907
It's a good game overall but it fails as a Prime game.

Percentages are linear scales, Anon. 80% is a positive score.
>>
>>727670943
the game is easily 95 though
>>
game is a 7/10
>>
>>727670943
Other M is only one point lower
>>
>>727670943
SHOULD be linear scores, in practice people don't use anything outside of 6-10 unless the game is a broken buggy mess and even then they're liable to give it a 4 instead of a zero
In practice it's a logarithmic scale

Journalist review scores are not linear scares.
>>
>>727672810
The problem with that is 79 is way too fucking high for Other M. Prime 4’s biggest problem is the shitty character writing while Other M’s biggest problem is that the controls barely fucking work (while also having shitty character writing).
>>
>>727673443
the writing in the Japanese version is a lot better

>In my 6 or so hours
That's the fucking problem. People keep giving their opinions when they have not finished the game. Most of the games issues stem from it's fucking awful late game

Critics or faggots as I like to call them have given every single Nintendo game lower reviews for a long time now. They can't accept Nintendo makes the greatest games every single year so the only thing they can do is reviewbomb them.
>>
>>727668907
They're still pissed at bingtendo for giving them the middle finger time and time again. The entire Nitnendo News app for example is a way for them to circumvent journo crap. They're stingy with review copies and always have a big list of shit you're not allowed to say about it. Nothing technical, but shit about the story and such that journos love to spoil to make themselves feel better.
>>
>>727675001
While it is true, do you really believe journos got all the way through the game?
>>
>>727669197
The review section of any given new release on Backloggd is as much an onrush of shallow kneejerk reactions and shitty one liners no one outside of that user's bubble will find funny as any other site predicated on user reviews. One of the most liked Prime 4 reviews there has an unironic use of "mansplaining" in it, for fuck's sake.
>>
Reddit are bombing positive reviews

>nintard manchildren spamming 10's to raise the user score
We are never getting a good Nintendo game ever again

I'm glad most of these retards are to stupid or lazy to actually put effort into it

these always cancel out with 0s so it doesn't really matter

all that matter is sales, because sales is the only thing they understand.

If it flops it will validate pushback against MCU writing and make companies think twice about hiring danger-hair activists that just wreck i.p.'s and damage the brand.

The lead writer being a leftist retard (who wanted Samus to be trans), these types get their jobs handed to them through nepotism and grift. Even fail upwards into them.

nintendo fans have a real big problem with overrating their games and nintendo keeps taking the wrong lessons because of it

it's a major reason why everything is being breath of the wildified
