Captain_Yuri said: What's very stupid is how these reviewers give these games a pass despite having performance problems. Even if you play on PS5 or Xbox, you would have performance problems. Yet the game is 86/100 on meta for ps5 and 79 on PC. On PC it should be at 60 and 70 on PS5 at best until they fixed the problems. But no, reviewers love getting shat fed to them as long as they get free samples and shit. Very stupid. |
You know, after watching that vid, I feel like I lost a few braincells and time, time I want back...
All it droned on about was "certification process", like yeah, no shit that's been a problem, but it's not THE ONLY PROBLEM. It's mainly down to devs not being given ample enough time to sort this out, and yes, the Cert time and process absolutely needs to be reworked and slimmed down, so they can push out their updates faster, but even then we shouldn't even be seeing this many updates.
Like when you and me were talking about QQ&A the other day, none of the devs in that damn video ever mentioned a lack of Q&A, which would naturally leads to this many certs needed to get those patches out.
Really I feel like I'm that tinfoil hat guy from Futurama, where I know we're lacking Q&A, but the devs themselves somehow don't know, or don't care to touch that subject with a ten ft pole.
PCGamer is absolutely one of the worst out there (besides IGN), when it comes to giving a game a good score, but not talking much about perf or the hw side of things when it comes to the game reviews themselves (which is why I really, really love when Alex talks about both sides, because it's both informative and logical, in helping us better understand why we need to tweak the settings for better quality/perf).
One day, I really hope reviewers eventually get caught out hardcore, I that's probably not going to happen unless their parent companies get tired enough of them to want to split them apart and remake some new outlet (much like how Escapist magazine went from reviewing games and movies, to now just focusing way more on movie reviews and one reviewer for games, also their forums went to shit).
Step right up come on in, feel the buzz in your veins, I'm like an chemical electrical right into your brain and I'm the one who killed the Radio, soon you'll all see
So pay up motherfuckers you belong to "V"
