96-98 since the series will be praised for doing things games been doing for the last decade

I'm curious to know what games these days aren't just doing things that have been done for the past decade or more.

Did nintendo seriously embargo the score but let reviewers do reviews in progress? Wtf is wrong with this company these days? Ugh. I wanna shout at them in a boardroom meeting.

You mean previews? That thing a lot of video game media does before full embergo lifts?

My prediction is 96 , reviewers will put their nostalgia glasses and just ejaculate all over this game.

Last Zelda was a 93 , let that sink in for a moment, if people thinks this game is get less than that they are lying to themselves.

I see people keep using the nostalgia card while every preview keeps insisting in how radically different from any Zelda feels, pretty ironic, nostalgia seems one of the last thing this games evokes outside well known characters, even the music doesn't sound like Zelda, I can't help but think is just a previsible excuse for people to swallow better the fact that such a masterpiece is not being release outside Nintendo systems.

the embargo of the review is to avoid spoilers.

95 seems about right

Sick of predicting to the single digit. It makes no sense. So split my range and add one point for luck and one point for Nintendo bias. So an 87 from me but I think I'll subtract another point for click bait sites and go with a solid 86. Yes, 86 is my final score, Punch it in bruh.

The game has been in development for 5 years by one of the best development teams in the gaming industry but the good scores are because of the "bias" and "luck" and not because the game deserves the score? and there's no way to change your biased opinion because you're not going to touch the game, like, never. you can't talk about "bias" cause your "bias" against the game is not subtle at all.

 

Metacritic Score? 96-97

 

LET'S GOOOOOOOOO

93 would be my guess. I don't expect this game to get a 100 even though it clearly deserves it
