A game nobody has played yet is "clearly" a better bet than a known, well received game? I don't think so.
I can't wait for Bloodborne. But we have no idea what it will be like especially because it's the most different than any others in the series.
The smart decision is clearly Dark Souls 2. Bloodborne is risky. This isn't about which game will be better. That's not what was asked.
I hope none of you who disagr...
This situation is very similar to Destiny. Reviewers gave it unrealistically low scores but everyone I knew who actually bought it, loved it. 6 months later, after getting scores like 2/10's, millions of people are still playing and enjoying Destiny. Those millions would have missed out if they listened to the reviews. Bottom line: don't listen to reviews. And anyone who takes them as truth, is unintelligent. Believing game reviews is like believing Fox news. It's all based on pus...
You also have failed at logic my friend. One movie ticket does not equal the experience of the video game. With the game taking 8 - 12 hours to complete, you're buying a lot of movie tickets. Not to mention, the game is interactive, which already ups its value.
I'm not making any comments on how good or bad the game may be. Just chiming in for those who may potentially be brainless.
That's not what people can't handle.
What they can't handle is the myriad of biased 1/10's and the like.
^ exactly. No other games caught flack for length. The Last of us, Metal Gear Solid, etc. Those games are so short but are now classics in the gaming community. The Order is being unfairly bashed in that aspect.
My brother picked up the game last night. Honestly, I didn't know what to think going into it. I was blown away by the realization that the game was nowhere near as bad as it was made out to be. It's fun and beautiful to look at. I'd give it a 7.5/10 after...
THIS. This is all it is. Unfortunately, it will never go away.
Dark Souls 2 is clearly the safer bet. We already know everything about it. Plus, the remaster is tweaked and has added material so that original game everyone loves is even better. On the other hand, we know very little of Bloodborne. It would obviously be a risk buying that if you had to pick between the 2.
Luckily, I don't have to make the choice as I'll be getting both. I don't expect Bloodborne to be as similar to Demon Souls as a lot of other people seem to ...
Because seeing 1/10 as a review score is not a journalist being fair. It's ridiculous and disgusting.
Yea... Assassins creed unity sure was a 9/10! That game was almost perfect! Reviewers are ALWAYS right!
For the idiots, I'm being sarcastic...
No multiplayer?
Linear?
Short game?
This game literally has all of the things that the order does. Prepare to see incredibly low scores from this game and crazy amounts of hate.
And honestly, if it doesn't... Then these "journalists" are so hypocritical its disgusting. If you're going to bash things, at least be consistent.
It's Japan only, unfortunately.
Riiiight... Remember a game called Destiny?
Was getting 2/10, 4/10, etc and the game is enjoyed by millions of players even 6 months after its release.
This is why when we see such low scores, they're hard to believe. These aren't crack pot conspiracy theories. Games have been unfairly reviewed in the past and been given terrible scores that are still being enjoyed by millions of players.
Bottom line: 2/10's and the like are signs...
It's a demo of a game that's 60% complete...
Me too. To be honest, 13 was the only bad FF game. I know people like to think the series feel off but in reality there's only been one bad numeric entry (and unfortunately they made 3 of them,).
Not really surprising at all. You can tell by how little information we have, by the fact the magic system isn't completed yet, etc.
Exactly what I keep trying to say. There is proof (like you showed) that these bad reviews are coming from sites that favor Xbox. But whenever someone like you or I try to point that out.. We're fanboys, or stupid, or can't accept opinions, blah blah. It's just very obvious what's going on here and there is proof to back it up.
Better watch out. You'll get labeled a fanboy with words like that.
Exactly. But when I brought this up in the first comment it's my fault for not being able to "handle different opinions." And that I'm a Sony fanboy. Really? Because only games that are damn near broken should be getting 4/10. It has nothing to do with "different opinions" or being a fanboy. This article is clearly written by a known Sony hater. That's all I'm saying. But yea...IM THE TROLL AND FANBOY. Makes total sense.
4/10? They didn't even try to hide their biased hatred in this one.
At least make it a little more believable if you're an Xbox fanboy trying to bash a sony exclusive.
We know you haven't even played it. Nice try, though.
