i might have to wait a couple weeks for this one lowkey. i really want it but pokemon is def gonna be taking up my game time until the crisis core remaster comes out

The internet brain dead . The fact that 7/10 = bad game is hilarious

Ps5 has fps drops

Haven’t noticed any yet but I’m only 6 hours in so maybe I’m not at that part yet

I’m fine with a game being shorter if the content is pretty good but yeah i guess I’ll wait for a sale.

I wish there was a map lmao this there’s like 50 secret rooms and I’m missing them all. The map is so maze-like and I keep missing so much s***

I’m 8 hours in and there’s no way I’m close to the end I have like 40 upgrades left to buy and some of them cost 2,700 credits and I only have like 500 credits and I’ve been collecting for a minute lol

Arkham series combat system was really great but I feel like they made the dodge/counter indicator the norm in games. Like we just expect it has to be there now

The reality is that critics need to be harsher on games. Have the balls to give more games 5-7/10 instead of just slapping on an 8 for doing the bare minimum and gamers will adjust their expectations accordingly

Don’t think imma be copping this game anymore tbh

Ign 7 can mean anything from bad to mid to even a solid game. I haven't played the game but game reviewers are generally pretty nice to a lot of games thay don't deserve it so it's hard tell what they actually think of the game.

They went crazy with the death animations

gonna tell my mom to cop me this and sonic for christmas

Doesn't look bad, just won't cop for $70

You are correct but in this case the broad consensus from way more reliable reviewers are 7 ish as well and their descriptions of pros and cons are fully laid out. I think certain review options such as IGN may have added more extreme outlooks with review scores even if it’s a sincere 7

So can we not dodge the dudes who spit at you

if they’re spitting at you, you gotta crouch behind something or move to cover, then run in and start a combo melee+gun move

it’s 7.6 so leaning more towards 8/10 technically, which is about what I’d rate the game, but I think I’m only half way through

Can definitely see how combat was an issue

So I had my first nope moment, if yall could hear how much of them were banging on the wall which i think is a cool feature btw

However, the problem I have with this is that you cant really disengage during combat like your kinda stuck dude is unathletic as s*** I can never run away from an encounter I've done so successfully only twice and one was the video above I do like that the monsters will follow you and bang on doors so it sucks you cant disengage often

also apparently for the part above I actually have to backtrack in that room where I left all the monsters the clip doesnt show but there is like 10 of them that spawn since i didnt kill them from the other room

Yeah the more I hear the more I am understanding it. Like I do like that they tried putting the dodge mechanic on a***og sticks like fight night but do understand how that could feel tedious or OP over time. I just like developers at least trying new risk to some degree so it doesn't all feel homogenous.

Cause many of people suggestions are 180 degree run, pulled back camera, damage indicators around you . Horror got to have some variations some how even if all the risk don't work. Will be interesting to see if they make any gameplay changes with new game plus or future dlc

I spent $70 to walk through small corridors/climb through vents. EXPLORE dead ends . Dodge, hit ‘em, hit ‘em hit em , dodge dodge .

They sold me on being spooky but it ain’t scurry

I got my refund day one

Some ppl r d*** riding this game sooooo hard and other people are saying its one of the biggest disappointments this year. I cant decide if i should get

wait for sale from what I am gathering. Seems to be not bad per se but some design decisions and stubbornness that halted potential of it being much much better. So builds a foundation for future games in series to learn from the mistakes
