Who could have seen this coming?
>>736988806>ign
The red flags went up for me when they made a huge fanfare about getting Troy Baker to voice the MC
>>736988873Those are all correct scores
>>736988873
>>73698887381 on metacritic and gamespot gave it an 8, not that I give a shit what any of these 'journalists' has to say, but ign is just garbo on everything.
>>736988873Concord probably actually was a 7, review scores weren't its problem though.
IGN has lowkey been very good with their ratings recently.
>>736988806The shill won't be happy lmao, fuck him.
>>736988806The game looks like ASS though
It's goodhttps://youtu.be/E8MblJGt_o8
Who do I believe?
>>736988873That score is correct, chink
>>736988806I am instinctively disgusted by all myomorph propaganda, sorry
>>736988806ten years ago it would've been a success. nowadays not even artstyle can carry your game if you are forced to play like a geriatric in a FPS
what the fuck is a "boomer shooter"
>>736991469doom
>>736991469Doom, Quake, Duke Nukem 3D, Unreal Tournament, Wolfenstein, Jedi Knight Dark Forces 1, Chex Quest, Painkiller, and anything that resembles that type of gameplay and map progression.
>>736988806Did Caravan Palace only compose a single song for the game?
>>736988806>IGN rates a game high>WAHHHHHH SHILLS>IGN rates a game low>WAHHHHH THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT THEY'RE TALKING ABOUT
>>736988806The first previews of this game looked good then suddenly it changed style to Unreal Engine asset flip. What the hell happened?
>>736991620you don't have to know what you're talking about to shill something
>>736988806Oh fuck it's out already?
>>736988873Yeah, Crimson Desert is fucking garbage, that 6 is generous. Mouse must also suck.
>>736991620Both of those can be true. Maybe IGN just sucks?
>>736988806Someone has been pre-seething about this game for months now, is that you?
>>736991789two days
>>736991789In less than two days.
>>736988806>people getting angry at IGN for calling a game from a smaller studio style over substance before the public even has a chance to try itI'm getting flashbacksThey were right about Blasphemous btw
Looks good to me, one of the few games I have been waiting for.
>>736991889lol he posted the worst rating on metacritic and then has been samefagging his shit thread for hours.
>>7369920457 is generous, but they like their whole numbers. 6.5 is what it deserves. Ender Lillies is the true neutral barometer, the ideal 5. Shitstained at 3.5, Axiom verge at 2, nine sols at 8.5 (minus 0.5 for too much yapping) silksong at 9, zexion at 9.5, prince of persia at 7.5, dread at 8, and grime at 7.
>>736988806I figured the entire selling point would be the novelty. Guess I was right.
>>736988806Don’t careBuying it and the soundtrack by caravan palace
Noir + rubberhose cartoon aesthetic seems like an awesome combo. I'll check it out. Kind of gives me Who Framed Roger Rabbit vibes.
IGN unironically using boomer shooter discredits its review. Not that I expect some level of professionalism from them anyway.
>>736988806I wouldn't trust any reviewer who uses the term "boomer shooter"
>>736988806
>>736994236BASEDSP
I'm picking it up for the animation and so long as it delivers on that I'm satisfied. IGN gave it the lowest score out of all the review sites and I'm not going to believe it's because they have better taste than the rest. I'll form my own opinion.
>>736991469I thought this game was a Bioshock inspirated thing not yet another fucking doom clone
>>736988806>blastOHHHHHHHHHHHHH I'M BLASTIN
>>736992426I stand with your point except ender lilies which i personally give it like 7.5 or 8, which is better than the sequel game. I had fun with lilies after i managed to sequence break due to exploitable platforming which suits to my metroidvania needs
>>736988806>IGN started to score games properly unless they are AAA titles from western publisher or have branches in California so some jap publishers tooNoticing. Have they internally said fuck it and just openly became shills for western AAA industry or what because its insanely blatant what they're doing now lol.
>>736994682kino meme. the guy on the right was initially on the left but is now repeating the cycle of violence he went through
>>736989196>methcastguy
>>736992426>el at 5
>>736991548They are just normal FPS to me. What's a zoomer shooter?
>>736988806>IGN 10/10 game confirmed
Rating a game from 1 to 10 is such a stupid way to look at things. How do you quantity that shit in any sort of logical manner, you absolutely can't. It makes much more sense to either recommend a game or to not recommend it. Maybe if the game is really good you highly recommend it, and if it's a steaming pile of shit you highly recommend not playing it.
>>736988806Why did this specific boomer shooter manage to break the mold and get so much attention from normalfags?
>>736991618I hope it was none
>>736988806>boomer shooterfuck this name
>>736996506The number rating system has been fucked up for a long time. 5 should mean an average game, not particularly good, not particularly bad. But in gaming "journalism" anything less than an 8 is a death sentence.
>1920s animation >no AI>No woke>Kino soundtrackYep, it's day 1 for me
Yeah not falling for it. The game must have chudded out hard to make IGN seethe this much.
>>736996683It' mainly the visual quality.Hand drawn Smooth animationspainted texturesand it's a solid shooter too but it's not super deep. it's based on Bioshock but has no Tonics or other advanced mechanics.
This might be the first game I'm going to buy since 2022.
reminder
>>736996391fortnite, the finals, apex, warzone
>>736988886>someone's name is on the game or the description of the gameinstinctual nobuy. sid meier gets a pass i guess.
>>736992426lol
>>736997865you boom and you shoot, what's the problem?
>>736998251So just semi-randomized multiplayers?
>>736994682>Have they internally said fuck it and just openly became shills for western AAA industry or what because its insanely blatant what they're doing now lol.Game journalism has literally been like this for 20 years now.
>>736998221That's deserved though
>nu-/v/ unironically putting any weight into journalist reviewslo fucking l just pull the plug already gookmoot
>>736988806Fully black and white games are always painful for me to look at.
Mort recommended it and the soundtrack is by Caravan Palace. This game was made for me
It looks pretty good to me
>>736988806It's the only negative review of this game online, how come?
>>736988873Ign may be gay but Crimson Cringe is definitely a 6/10 game. Gooks don't know how to make good games, see: them adding easy modes to their souls clones.
Trust gmanlives. It's GOTY.
>>736999446>gmanliveslol
Since it's not a detective game, no thanks.
>>736999338>6/10>negative???It's an above average game. How is that negative?
>>736999446hows that anthem video going
>>737000723What do you get out of pretending the journo review scale doesn't start at 7?
>>736991469reddit genre of never ending obnoxious references to other older game and copy and paste tropes of the FPS action games of the 90s with barely any originality
>>736999446i didn't forget the starfield review gman
>>736988806I knew it was shit when I saw all the mechanics ripped off from other boomer shooters>le heckin epic melee hell sword from doom eternal>grappling hook>speedrun tranny autism weapon switching>glory kills>marvel quipsThe review is right, the gameplay would’ve benefited from being more grounded and more realistic, it just doesn’t make sense, why would this detective rat fight gangsters and other monsters like he’s in painkiller?I played it for 1 hour and realized the level design is also pretty boring and has nothing to do with a first person story driven shooter, it’s just rooms and room with clown closets, most of them feel like they were slapped together in a level editor, jump blocks, ramps and very forced level design for enemy encountersBesides the art and graphics and some of the music, the game is very mind numbing, they should’ve spent more money in hiring game and level designers instead of lining up Troy Bakers pockets and other professional AAA voice actors
>>737000872Because it literally doesn't. Not my fault you think 6/10 isnt better than average.
>>737000973>other boomer shooters>doom eternalepic bait
>>736999446>trust ShillmanliesKek
>>736991469First person shooters without modern mechanics like cover, regenerating health, reloading, limited inventory, massive amount of cutscenes, linear level design over sprawling combat arenas.There are some FPS that don't have these but aren't quite "boomer shooters" either. I don't think anyone calls Goldeneye or Perfect Dark a boomer shooter.
>>736994236Wait you told me I'm supposed to hate this guy?! He's based af
>>736991469Low effort early access indie shit first person shooters
>>737001257>low effortBoomer shooters are higher effort than AAA shooters because they have to design actual levels instead of scripted corridors with respawning enemies.
>>736988806>DUDE RUBBERHOSEfuck off and die
>>737001337Boomer shooters have awful level design with respawning enemies all the time retard, level design is just>find key>open doorEncounters are just >go into obvious combat arena>fight 30 enemiesIt’s garbage
>>737001419Play Cultic then
>>736988873these are all correct, scored appropriately according to their respective genres and what they’re trying to achieve
>>737001630I did, it’s amazing
>>737001419Are you the retard who called Doom Eternal a boomer shooter?
>>736988997>>736988806Those sound like some pretty retarded criticisms honestly. Like the reviewers couldn't accept that the game was trying to be a shooter and not some film noir adventure game.
