Game was 10/10 even before the first patch. It's just too gamey. There is no cinematic story, and this breaks many people because they can't even imagine a video game without such a thing nowadays.

pretty much. a lot of games these days get rated just for having a story that sounds like it couldve been a movie. not a good story, just a movie-like story, and its instantly a 7/10 bare minimum.

people just forgot that video games should played, not watched.

>lying press band together to lie about a large good game in favor of a terrible game that aligns with their politics
>everyone else in the world disagree with them
>they double down
kek the real concord were the careers of the journalists we watched lie along the way

>>736271970
I don't. It's just a reaction image.

>"The game I played was absolutely a 6/10"
>devs reduce HP on already-easy bosses
>"It's better now!"
People would be less mad if they'd just admit that they bombed it at the request of third parties.

>>736271710
"game journalists" don't play games
they judge games based on the pre-release hype
for an established franchise they can approximate what the reception will be, but a game like this is hard to predict

>>736272662
Anon, this was one of the most hyped games of all time.

>>736271710
The lack of storage at launch definitely sucked dick
also this game has a bunch of shit that's easy to miss (and some of that is by design)
So I can see why people would rate it lowly either because it doesn't fit their tastes or because of skill issues

What was updated

>>736271710
Lmao

>>736272686
Hyped by chuds, who IGN hate.

>>736271710
we don't hate journalists enough

>>736271710
>please wait one month to review Marathon even though it's not finished 9/10
>oh shit, my hit piece isn't going over well. better rewrite it

Game journalists are worthless sacks of shit who are terrible at the one thing they should actually be competent at. I don't even think Crimson Desert is some 10/10 masterpiece, but the idea that it got a 6 when some literal liquid diarrhea like Veilguard got a 9 from them just boggles the mind.

>>736273104
A storage chest with 240 storage slots
They automatically equip the memory helmet and playback memories when you scan memories so you don't have to do that weird combination of 'scan memory > open equipment menu > switch to armor > equip the memory helmet > watch the memory', it was slow as tedious as fuck to do that every time
Sped up learning speed so you don't have to stare at a piece of paper for 5 seconds before you can actually read it
Bosses got nerfed
Healing items got buffed
Added more fast travel points on the map
Reduced the amount of stamina you use while gliding

There's a bunch of other shit but those are the biggest changes that are hard to miss

>>736272686
By who, you? It wasn't written about by any of these sites. It didn't have ad banner on these sites. It didn't have a Steam banner for more than the first few hours of launch. It didn't even have Youtube ads. Nobody here talked about it. It didn't have numerous threads on other sites. It was discussed less than Resident Evil and Marathon, and marketed less than Pokopia. So where was this hype that you were hiding?

>>736271710
same shit happened during RE2 demake you cannot say bad things about the game
anyone who did got mass harassed into changing their scores
and ign was the first one to kneel they have no balls

>>736272353
Yeah, the complaints about the early bosses is laughable. Reed Devil is literally stagger locked by parrying and if you have the capability of dodging left or right instead of directly into the wind blades every time like a monkey for the last phase you will never get touched, and yet people were talking about going through dozens of pieces of food and all their pills.

crimson desertchads stay winning

You know it is so.

Megumin is best girl of the three, the chinks can have NTRbait instead. Actual best girls are Yunyun, Eris, and Iris though.

Shit was even worse during the review period. They were doing daily patches to try fix the most blatant fucked shit reviewers complained to them about. You start with 50 inventory slots now and get 3 from most quests. Reviewers started with 20 slots and got jack shit from quests.

>>736275027
>NTRBait.
>Just because she's extremely perverted and masochistic and wants you to fuck her.
lol. Built for white people. You see a blonde chick and think of NTR, jeet.

>>736275209
I genuinely don't know how they could beat the game like that, I already have 30+ key items that I can't even throw away and they still take up inventory slots

>>736276101
Key items don't use inventory slots, retard.

>>736271737
Do you make every thread just so you can post some milquetoast take as the 1st post?

>>736271710
If a reviewer is willing to agree to wait one month after release to review Marathon, they can and absolutely should re-evaluate every other game review one month later.

>>736271710
You can't fix a shit game with an update. Half of the game would need to be updated.

>>736271710
Journalists were more retarded than usual by giving marathon a grace period. especially when they all lambasted crimson desert which ironically actually patched its initial problems before marathon released cryo and yet only one got any benefit of the doubt. it's funny seeing them somehow still find brand new ways to show they have absolutely zero integrity and are just paid puppets.

>>736271710
game is still a 5/10

I'd wait a bit longer for that. Like, what are they gonna do, re-review it for every single patch? They should do their new review maybe about a year later, 6 months at least. Otherwise they'd still have a review that's not for the "final" version of the game.

>>736271737
What are you on about? There's totally a cinematic story. There are cutscenes and big battles and bosses and huge setpieces. It's no less cinematic than any other open world game that's not by Rockstar.

>>736271710
I bought it, played it for 15 or so hours, and have no desire to play it again. 6/10 seemed totally fair to me.

>>736271710
cyberpunk case - make bad game with bugs and broken system, retards are spaming everywhere that its best game ever, from trad eastern devs, not tranny western stuff.
After few updates and reworks it becomes edible- oh, you see, we retards always thought it was good, we were right, we are just so retarded that we paid full price for beta testing new patches and reworks.
Cyberpunk an CD case should be studdied by pr agencies, how to use western incels for for aggressive marketing of an average product

>chuds enjoy game of white man knight being good guy.
>there is no subverting expectations. which is a tired trope at this point.
>you get to do some puzzles.
>the combat is dynasty warrior esque with the odd boss.
>you don't have to sit threw what are essentially humiliation rituals i.e. KCD2 or a gorillion troonery homoery.
>is generally fun to play a good solid 8/10

these are the main reasons game journo's hated it, they also convinced themselves that people that want skyrimesque games would play marathon for whatever reason, so this game was competing for their attention or something beyond any ideology. chuds win again i guess.

Far as I'm concerned the game being 6/10 comes down to two things: no CaC, no[t enough] fanatasy monsters.

If you could play the entire game as Damiane that would make the game 7/10. Damiane and more actual fantasy monsters, pretty easy 8 even with the weird story and RDR2 awkward controls and weird MMO-tier crafting.

the liberal progessive moment is over, it is time to build a new world and stop worrying about the old.

Again, I talk to Travis North and he thought it was actually a 3/10 and the game was a massive slog, he felt it took away his time from Marathon. IGN didn’t let him rate it a 6/10.
A re review will not improve the score. It is a bad game. You CAN enjoy and have fun with a bad game too.

>>736279512
Travis North wasn’t the one who reviewed Veilguard. He’s done it for the other games you listed though, and more or less all of them deserved what they got. Except CD which should’ve been a 3.

isnt he right though? I thought everyone agreed the game was dogshit on launch, it had mixed/negative reviews no?

>>736271710
Why is Marathon even brought up? It absolutely deserves a 9/10. Do normies actually believe their opinion of a game they haven’t even played, because some youtube ragebaiter told them not to, even matter?

>>736271737
>they can't even imagine a video game without such a thing nowadays.
Cinematics are a staple of 3D video games. It's been that way for a quarter of a century. I'm not sure why is comes as a shock to anyone.

>>736279574
he did give Halo 5 a 10/10

>>736279620
There's plenty of cinematics there's an entire siege battle located entirely in one region and it is genuinely dare i say it a blast.

>>736279474
can you tell him to rate it lower this time, 5/10, so that i can see the huge melty
