87 isn't that bad

>minus nintendo bonus: 37

Should I buy this game?

>minus Nintendo bonus: 87

Kinda funny that the review that did it was a 70 that reads like a fucking 80-90 on another site. Obviously the issue is that our internal perception of the rating scale is fucked and Metacritic encourages such a retarded universal rating scale. Reviews should be about the reviewers and their history with games not about a number.

...

>minus Nintendo bonus: 87

based user thanks for reminding me to pre-order the digital version!

Should I buy this. It looks pretty fun.

What the fuck? Anything above 80 is great.

I mean they are if you've been in this scene since you were 8 like the rest of us. We all know shit like IGN or kotaku is full retard

There is a Mexican site that gave it an 8.8 and ave Days Gone a 9.4

Feels good being a Fire Emblem Chad with our 89

>minus nintenbro bonus: 0

>minus nintendo penalty: 97

Some idiot out there bought a switch just for this mediocre game lol

87 is great.

Can't even hit 90 with a Nintendo bonus? Yikes.

I pirated it a few days ago, it's okay.

I really hate metacritic discussion on this board, because guaranteed the people in question will always flip flop depending on how convenient it is for them.

Is that with or without paid reviews?

That's a great score, though.

Without, the only Nintendo game that Journalists like is 3D Zelda

That's not bad though.

Nintrannies would DDoS journos if they gave it an honest review like they did to Jim Sterling.

>trusts game journalist paid shills

Cope.

I don't get it, is an 87 supposed to be a bad thing, also why does anybody care about the opinions of journalists instead of the people who actually played the game

cringe nincel yikes dilate oof

>be cop
>fight aliens
>basically character creator I.C.E. The Game by Japan
I like it

These zoom faggots don't trust in their own opinions. So they need to pay someone to play their games and tell them

Never believe OHNONONO metacritic posters.

86 however..

ohnonono posting needs to be a banable offence

how does this ugly ass game not run at 60fps? from what I've seen it even struggles with 30fps

>caring about shit like fps
what a fucking nerd

FUCK


OFF


ROBERT

87 is fine, 85 is average and anything less than it is not worth your time and money

anons I bought a switch for this...

>it's ok for an action game to be a choppy shitshow

OH N- oh wait, this is great when we talk about Platnimun games since the mainstream media hates then.

Fucking great!

Reminder that Kamiya's best game is W101 and it only has a 78. Critics have never been good at rating platinum's games properly and this just reassures me that the games gonna be an easy 9.5/10.

This drought is really hurting you guys huh.

That's with the Nintendo bonus applied.

Rule of thumb: always subtract 10 points (15 if Zelda, Mario or Pokemon)
77 is the actual score

>87
Ouch! Jeez is it really that bad?

>seething because game isn't crossplatform

Guys, it's Platinum Studios we're talking about here. They do one thing, but they do it goddamn well, so this isn't really all that suprising of a score. Not a single one of you has played it, and you can call it shit when it earns that title.

Kotaku likes Astral Chain

Vice was crying about the police in their review, did Kotaku try to push that angle as well?

It would be 99 it if wasn't on the piss baby toy.
Don't understand why Nintenkeks keep supporting a toy company.

Picked the fuck up.

10 bucks says it actually is referencing something else but the review is a casual retard and thinks Eva invented all of it.

Let me guess, your first Legion was your brother all along and the retard thinks robot = family member means Eva ripoff.

This fucker thinks Evangelion shares his critiques of 2019 US policing, I'm not sure the guy has any idea what he's talking about.

Man I haven't laughed so much in a long time. Yea Forumseddit is like that nowadays

How can I kill a little over an hour?

Botw fans are not ondicitive of the wider Nintendo fan base, they are a special kind of retard.

There are shit loads of garbage 80+ games out there mate.
Metacritic is a joke.

the game already launched

try to do that with very ps4 exclusive, that's their score

>Minus nintendo bonus: 97

I'm playing Dragon's Dogma for the first time. It's pretty good.

Count the number of friends you have out loud
After that wait another 77 minutes

It literally got a score of 1 out of 5

try to do that with very ps4 exclusive, that's their score

Can somebody drop us a gameplay footage? How can this dumb get score near dmc5. Reviewers are really biased and shit eaters.

The scoring system makes no sense. It's probably all time based with some fights having very generous margins.

I've got a little less than an hour. I'm playing mighty switch force collection on my switch.
I chugged a coffee and I'm about to pop some vicodin to get wavy for this game. I think I can get in 4 or 5 hours tonight then I gotta see my doctor tomorrow and then maybe a nap and then play some more. This fuckin knee surgery has me just sitting around getting fucked up on opiates and playing vidya

>There’s certainly no shortage of awesome cinematic and flashy moments, but it’s never varied enough to keep things consistently enjoyable.

Other action games like Devil May Cry almost suffer from this fate, except they save themselves with the addition of a style gauge which judges and rewards you based on each combat encounter.

Best moment of the game.

Typical plat shit. Another "hack and slash" with no depth just visuals. Thank God for DMC team, even ninja theory is more creative

From gamexplain, i hear the most it got to was half an hour between fighting and some piratefags i asked said around 30-40% is exploration shit

That sounds terrible. I'm sure the combat is good, but still.

Looks like there is probably a superboss somewhere. The final boss was third from the bottom on the enemy list unless there was a form-change mid fight I didn't get a photo of.

Red one is the boss of file 10, it's Akira. You fight his human form again in file 11. And you let arrowbro execute him at the end of the game

how does such an obvious shitpost inflame nintendo fans so easily

Because game reviews from critics are way skewed towards the 10/10 side on the scale of 1-10. A game has to be truly terrible to get a 5 out of 10 or below, unlike a movie. This means that the "tomato-meter" rating for every single game would range from like 88-100% of critics liking it, with only the absolute worst games like FO76 getting below 88%.

So it'd be pretty useless unless game reviewers all agreed to change their reviewing standards at once, and also retroactively changed their review scores from every previous game they've ever reviewed in order to make them more balanced towards the middle of the scale (out of 10) as well.

So, the game actually has "Henshin", truly this toku as fuck.

Is this that blonde bitch? Too much Another Decade don't you think?

Blonde bitch gets executed by (you) and then the real villain gets to show up.

Send this to /m/, is the kind of stuff they love.

The twins unlock the ability to fuse with their legion upon death. It's a continuation of the legion feeling like an extension of their body. In gameplay, it's just an optional transformation once you fill a meter.

Sorry bros, Im saving my money for Dragon Quest XI S Definitive Edition.

Well you can see how many bonuses you got, I imagine as long as you vary up your Legions and their specials and take advantage of all the game mechanics like Perfect Call you'll get a bunch of bonuses in any round

It's never fully explained, just the "circumstances of their birth" during a "pandemic". Their mother was probably redshifting or an aberration.

Noticed that I missed a name change during the fight. Spoilered screenshot is not censored.

Ah I didn't. Still doesn't seem like that would be it though.

since im a sucker for cyberpunk tell me your opinion on the game
is there any exploration in it

It could make sense since Axe was Max's legion and Arrow was Akira's legion. Was your character pulling on the chain trying to stop the execution?

Is that why you fuckers keep saying kh3 and ffxv are shit?

Nah she wasn't pulling the chain.
