Hopefully Cyberpunk 2077 has the witcher universe cameo.

I know it's unsustainable, but at the current logarithmic scale of CDPr improvement each videogame (aside from that Gwent crap), Cyberpunk will net an Academy Award Nomination for something.

there is a huge population of people who have built an identity and community around whining about video games on the internet. while a normal person would react to not liking a video game by not buying it and moving on, these defective humans get on the internet and act entitled about toys like it is an important thing that actually matters.

I don't know, Witcher 3's a really very good game. I think most things in AAA RPG videogameland can be improved by adding Witcher 3 to the list of discussion.

Theoretically, yea, I totally agree it "can" be improved. But goons.

He gave it a 7/10, citing a lot of the annoyances other reviewers also touched upon.
This lead to Nintendo fanboys melting down and ddosing his site.

He just put up a jimquisition on it comparing the fanbase's fragile egos with the fragility of weapons in the game, people gonna be salty.

Also, part of it is I guess on metacritic his review turned BOTW from tied with the highest rated game of all time (OOT, I believe) to "just" a 97. I guess that's a big deal?

I suddenly felt a lot better about this thread when I saw what was going on with that review.

Zelda is one of those franchises that's impossible for people to be rational about, so reviewer scores are especially meaningless there.

Thought exercise for the thread since we can't stop bringing it up: What is the Witcher 3 of movies? While we're at it, what is the Mass Effect 3?

For your blockbusters? Mass Effect 3 is Star Trek Into Darkness, Witcher 3 is Fellowship of the Ring.

Sterling is a guy who puts on a plague doctor mask and calls himself the steam cleaner because he reviews lovely EA games on steam greenlight. I don't get how people take so much of his poo poo seriously.

Really, he should have named himself The Cleveland Steamer, way funnier imo.
