I know but the last time I did somthing similar I got banned. Bashing a game even before it is released, is just dumb. And he is saying things like it is a GoW clone and an emo character which is just wrong and in my opinion this is trolling. Wherever I read a preview of this game everybody said it is a monster for franchise fans, it has the old charme with new characters and a new story. If he says the game has his flaws after he plays it, and explains what bothered him the I am totally fine with this. Not everybody can love it. But already claiming it is a GoW knock off without even 5 minutes in the game is trolling. And accusing people they are against a "real" DMC sequel if they buy this one. How would call this? |
Perhaps you shouldn't have been banned.
About criticising games before they are released; now there are some problems with that, but I think we must be allowed to do it because the pre-release phase of a new games is so long, and filled with information that gamers will want to digest and analyze.
Often the time window to discuss a game after it is released is very short before interest simply dies down, typically only a few weeks, which I think is frustrating. You made a thread about Dragon Age 2 recently with big success, but that's not very common for a +1 year old game, and I think part of the reason why people participated in it so much was because that particular game was met with such mixed feelings.
These days the hype phase from announcement to release is so long that people simply must vent their excitements and worries.
