- " That's not what I'm saying. It's understandable that someone dislikes open world games, but it's not understandable that said person would say open world = bad, as in bad for everyone. No review would have "Open world" written as a negative bullet point, for the same reason the genre wouldn't be there. It would be understandable for me to not like a FPS game because I don't like FPSs (for example), but it wouldn't be understandable for me to say a game is bad because it's an FPS. "
Okay, that makes sense. But I still don't think he was speaking objectively. I guess we'll just have to wait for PullusPardos to clarify.
- "He said it lacks content, you just agreed that it's above the standard, so I guess that critique is false in your eyes as well as mine."
Just because something is above the standard, doesn't mean it's any good. If the standard is shitty, then you can be above it while still being mediocre. Also, even if it did have a good amount of content, that still may not be good enough in this context. This thread is asking for the best of the best, not 'just' good.
- "But how is it a reason that Naughty Dog isn't a top developer? And how does that make his critique any less wrong?"
Because I'm assuming his opinion of a top developer is one that goes extremely past the standard. The devs that make games with many hours of gameplay, offering a lot of gameplay options, replayability, exploration, etc. Again, talking about single player here.
