Game journalists generally suck at games. I assure you most of them bounced off dark souls and didn't get into it until it was massively popular, and then they pretended to always like it.

Dark Souls is 89 on metacritic. So was Demon Souls

...and? That changes nothing about what I said.

So game reviewers have the power of time travel to replace their bad reviews with glowing ones?

That value is an average and in now way tells us who reviewed it when.

Its pretty likely only a few sites reviewed demon souls, then a few more did after it became popular.

Also, because "IGN" reviewed dark souls, that doesn't mean they actually beat it, and even then, would only mean a single member of staff did and says nothing to all the other reviewers.

Should we keep going?

No we don't

Cause this is stupid and so are you

Dominic Tarson (the person who should have reviewed it on RPS, but he was let go a few weeks ago) liked it a lot:

Really a shame they did not hold onto him. If nothing else he did turn me onto some good obscure games.

Played a few minutes of the first level. Really good and well done! Chose Wanton Carnage and it was real easy but I am assuming it steps up later.

Also, use an ATM!

It's almost funny but mainly sad how many dipshits claim BF5's bad sales as a victory of refusing """SJW""" politics and not because it was a stale gameplay format and sucked

To me I did not even know BF5 was out when it was out. It was weird release.

Huh, the Ion Fury thread has quite a few new posts, let's see what they're about.......uh...ok then... :yikes:

This is why I don't give a poo poo about videogame politics/drama. Who cares if gamemakers are SJW hating nazis or whatever, I'll be over here chucking bowling bombs at cyborg cultists and having a good time in this finely crafted retro 90s throwback FPS.

Liking the game does not make you an rear end in a top hat. But this attitude does.

Bleh, my refund request did not go through. Kinda expected it, really; I got it on early access way back when, so I didn’t think they would go through, but I was hoping.
