One of the goons had a review copy and kinda broke their NDA by saying it was pretty bland, like a more boring AC3.


Conan did a review and was pretty much bored out of his mind but still had to do the complementary "it's a cool game....".

Basically it won't be a buggy piece of poo poo but will just be an aggressively bland mediocre GTA clone. bioshock infinite of GTA.

when goons were talking about how blah it's going to be and why would anyone preorder it, a goon dropped this gold nugget:

quote:

Why would you ever listen to goons? I am still going to play Watch_Dogs and enjoy this poo poo out of it because I am fully expecting a modern-day Assassin's Creed game plus hacking shenanigans. I'm pretty sure this game will be exactly what I am expecting.


that basically reminds me of the Thief preorder defenders. "I DONT CARE IF ITS BAD IM GOING TO DROP $60 ON A PREORDER AND HAVE FUN SNEAKING AROUND WITH STEALING SHENANIGANS. SUCK IT :colbert:"

I don't give a poo poo about Watch Dogs but did people really say that about Thi4f? There's already a free alternative, what the gently caress is wrong with them?

eh it could be, i forgot people still play consoles and it's easy to pirate games for that before they're out. either way i can believe it based on other reviews and footage i've seen.

yep, there were a lot of thi4f defenders, both before and after release that said nearly exactly that. "gently caress the haters, they're just mad because games dare innovate an they just have rose tinted glasses! IM GOING TO HAVE FUN AND THERES NOTHING YOU CAN DO HAR HAR :colbert:"

wow. that is beyond stupid. like that's the new bottom for stupidity for me. dropping top dollar on a triple a adaptation when a dedicated community has already done that and even optimized the creation of future missions for free.

It really was. If Megaman Jockstrap was still around, he probably has more juicy quotes about it, it was pretty bad.

but it's no surprise, you see that kind of defense over everything.


vvvvvv
yeah pretty much. it's everywhere, not just SA but it's noticeable that you'll find at least one goon who will unironically defend the equivalent of eating a bowl of diarrhea for ~reasons~ (also insert insults against crazy fans, rose tinted glasses, nostalgia, it'll still deliver exactly what I expect it tastes like!, goons are just bad at games/goons don't understand art)

That was a foregone conclusion when they released info about how they gutted the setting of everything that made it unique and slapped an extra layer of steampunk on top. Or something to that effect.

these kind of retards pop up whenever some new game that's clearly going to be trash comes out. i remember that before dragon age 2 came out they had a separate prerelease thread that was isolated from criticism of the game for the handful of babies who thought it was actually going to not suck

steampunk is cool if it's just 'oh here's some weird-rear end poo poo that we justify with steam' because i dont care how you justify inventive designs so long as the designs are actually inventive

but if it's 'AIRSHIPS AND TOP HATS WITH MONOCLES ON IT HELL YEAH' it's the dumbest poo poo

someone wiser than i once said that you can tell a game is bad if it's nearly half-price on key resellers before it comes out. It's about $40 now but a few weeks ago I've been seeing preorders go for as low as $30.

The "radio" has two functions. On/off or skip song. No radio stations, just one rather short playlist that has everything on it, like one jazz tune, one public enemy song, one Chicago blues song all on repeat.
