Ryse would be praised if it was by Quantic Dream.

I'm not sure whether to take this thread seriously or not...considering that Heavy Rain and Beyond have been reduced to "games that have QTE's".

Anything goes if thats the logic being implemented over here.

In any case, as others have mentioned both Heavy Rain and Beyond got mixed reviews and are regarded by fans differently.

Ryse is pretty much disliked across the board. Critical reviews, user reviews, general consensus on the net etc.

At the end of the day a good game is a good game and a bad game is a bad game. The gaming public usually agrees on whats good and whats not. Either way Ryse isnt getting praised, doesnt matter about the marketing, its platform or its genre.

Heavy Rain has an 87 Meta. Definitely not mixed.

Beyond, I agree (although a 70 shouldn't be considered "mixed" either - but hey, that's the rule of the Metascore).

These are the rules of metacritic.
(1) A game is either inflated when it is exlusive, unless a war is happens. 
(2) Incase of a war, a game is rated horribly at the start but eventually recovers.
(3) Anything below 75 is considered Mixed since gamers only know 8-10 scale of gaming. 
(4) Why are you on this horrible site.
(5) For heaven sakes they allowed the Toronto Sun in.
(6) Seriously get off it.

Now I will say Heavy Rain was entertaining but Beyond was just a clusterfuck, not many praise it. Infact I know some sony centric fanatics that hate it, not here sadly.
