It’s not a “vendetta” against anyone. That’s such a bullshit internet bro perspective about how writers and critics do their jobs. But if you’ve been around the block, like most experienced games journalists have, you start to just object to the smell of over-glorified bullshit. But hey, there’s no accounting for…

“How dare they review something they didn’t enjoy!”

io9 just did a write up of the beginning of the game as well. They were pretty harsh as well.

Nothing is more important than collecting that fare. Nothing.

I see you made made it out of the greys after posting your other weird, gross screed as many times as you could. Just can’t decide if you’re enjoying trolling on an article about a school shooting or if you’re one of the mentally troubled people you advocate for removal and isolation...

If you’re only paying minimum wage to work there, it should only take minimum wage to live there.
