In media circles, there’s a weird lukewarm-ness about it. It’s really not reflected in player sentiment, I’d say.
It won a ton of Game of the Year awards, and many other technical awards. By any metric, I don’t think it could be called underrated.
One of the best-selling and highest rated games of that year… “underrated”.
This was my thought reading this. It is pretty universally considered a great game. Not sure why that is in the headline. It was one of the game that led me to get a PS4. Its all around one of my favorites. Forbidden West didn’t really pull me in the same - I don’t know the map got too big, it wasn’t new anymore, or…
For me it was the story that drove me, and the gameplay/open world took a back seat. For some reason, the combat just does not click with me and I’ve played through both games and still just can’t “get it.” The stealth doesn’t feel good and the action combat is too frenetic for me to really click with trying to pick…
It’s horrible and obnoxious slang
This is definitely one piece of Youth Speak that drives me up the damn wall the second I hear it. Toss it in an article, sure. As a headline it just feels off.
For the 1 millionth time, free speech protects people from the government imposing penalties on you for saying stupid/offensive/controversial/etc shit.
Alright PS bros, what hoops are we jumping through to justify the exclusivity this time?
I’m loving the hell out of the game and the characters are a big reason why.
HARD disagree!
I’m convinced that the editors of the AV Club sincerely have zero taste based on AAF’s cover of Smooth Criminal being on this list.
Barbarian was terrible. It would have been so much better if everyone did their parts happier and with their mouth open.
I don’t get the love for this movie. I thought it was one of the worst movies I had seen in a while when I watched it. No action anyone took made any sense (in the infuriating yelling-at-my-TV way), people walking away from actions that they definitely couldn’t have...just mediocre. Felt like everyone watched a…
Cyberpunk 2077 doesn’t need “saving”. At this point it’s a pretty great game with most of the issues ironed out, and good solid mod support as well. This will only add to that.
Hey Lifehacker, I’m going to show you how to write an article:
Plastic drywall anchors are just freaking fine for any application that you would WANT to hang stuff on drywall. There are dozens, if not hundreds of different solutions to hanging stuff on drywall and a lot of people make it into this huge debate about…
Don’t be lazy - posting some pics of the different kinds of anchors would make this article way better. You probably could figure out how to make a slideshow out of it!
THE biggest example of a sequel changing fundamental aspects of its predecessor would be (in my opinion) Mass Effect 2, and wouldn’t you look at that? People call that the best game of the franchise, and one of the best (so called) “RPG’s” ever made. Dragon Age Origins is clunky and it needed changing, it’s never…
Good thing TheRoot is here to shame them! I wish Panama Jackson was still around to write a Very Smart Brothas column shaming them, too bad he quit before this auspicious day came!
