Nah, bottom line is he thinks reviewers were harsh on ReCore. He said they knew the game wasn't perfect and they would have done things differently if they started from a scratch. Nothing wrong with saying this and plenty of people who played it agree. Then he noted about clickbate reviews and used Forza as an example. And that leads to this nonsense debate hehe.

You act like you never saw Phill doing these kind of things.... reviewers were harsh? Maybe, but I hardly see that as done with ill intent against this particular game, they simply didn't like, similar situation with The Order... and in this case there are hardily any clickbaiting on the low range, but probably on the high end, still he pretends like that is a serious issue in this case. It's all to try and defend a game that wasn't very good to begin with.

We had even in this thread several guys that are seriou that said they liked the game but they see it as an 60-65 game perhaps 70 at most. So the average 63 is quite on that, and so a 40 is less clickbait than the 90 that was showed.

The thing is, I am pretty sure at least half of the negative ones were unwarranted. The game was a solid 72, not a solid 62...

Yeah I've seen him slip out something silly sometimes but overall I like it how he plays his average joe role and gives interviews. I'm sure most people still aknowledge he's a CEO and his job is to make money and sell his product and take his words with a grain of salt. Then there's some people who see jabs, spins, butthurtness and shit like that in everything he says, kind a like those religious people listening to heavy rock records backwards thinking they hear a hidden satanic message heh.

I read that interview and didn't really see him making a serious issue about anything. He was asked a question and he answered that he thinks reviewers were harsh. That's the way he sees it and/or wants the game to keep selling, so what? Some gamers in this thread think it scored lower than deserved and some don't.

Yep, it would be ok for him to say the reviewers were harsh and that he thought the game was better than the score suggest (and we can pretend not to hear he saying sales are very good, because in this department he lies a lot and that is expected of his position) but to say that some of those were clickbait because they are below the average is silly since the scores above the average are % more away than the ones below.

Both have clickbait. To think the negative ones weren't sounds stupid...
