Deathloop Review | GameGrin

Over the last decade, Arkane Studios has made quite the name for itself as a studio brimming with creative ideas, but does DEATHLOOP live up to its expectation?

Now I think this actually might be the overall GOTY 👍😁

CaptainHenry9161703d ago (Edited 1703d ago )

It's only an 88 on metacritic? Shouldn't it be in the 90s? I like the game, but I wouldn't have given it a 10 more, like 8.5 out of 10 imo.

TheOptimist1702d ago

Most of my GOTYs in the last 5 years have been below 90 on Metacritic. Metacritic is a shit place to judge games because of the lack of quality in modern journalism and their tendency to pander to the wrong people.

2016 - Tie between Doom and Dishonored 2 (85 and 88 on meta)
2017 - Nier Automata & Hollow Knight (88 & 87)
2018 - Celeste (88)
2019 - Devil May Cry 5 (89)
2020 - Biomass (didn't get a metacritic score because it was such a remote indie game, but the ideas in it were simply too good to ignore)

If this game is GOTY, then where does this leave Halo Infinite?

chiefJohn1171702d ago

You got Halo infinite so far down your throat.

@ChiefJohn117
Halo has been in development for 6 years. Halo Infinite winning GOTY will be great for Microsoft especially for this year

Epicor1702d ago

88 is an excellent score on Metacritic. It's same score than Ratchet and Clank has. It's better score than Returnal (85) and Miles Morales (85). So honestly it looks like Deathloop in fact IS a legit GOTY contender. I cannot comprehend the downplay this game gets from the gaming community. Double standards: other games scoring this well would be instantly in GOTY discussion.

Is this game really that good? Watched some gameplay and it looked kinda mediocre. Graphics looked last gen to me. Is it really worth it?

ChiefofLoliPolice1702d ago

Never judge a book by its cover.

Nicknasty1702d ago

Well, I usually can get a pretty good idea of how a game plays by watching gameplay. Is it better than it appears?

Epicor1702d ago

Based on the review scores: Yes, it's that good. Why all the doubts? Try it yourself and decide.

BlackDoomAx1702d ago

I gave it a look too. Graphically it was ok , but it was boring to look at.

pietro12121702d ago

Boring to look at? The art direction of this game is fantastic

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

Jingsing14d ago

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Tanktopmaster9214d ago

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

S2Killinit14d ago

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

Jingsing14d ago

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

Tanktopmaster9214d ago

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
