much difference between the first two scores and the last two

We need to wait for more scores to come in to see what happens

NOTE the cheatCC reviewer at the end says, "ITS NOT WORTH THE PRICE RIGHT NOW"

So I am confused as to why he even gave it such a high score.

Those two reviews are actually reviewing the potential which is just all around stupid.

You can't review a games potential and doing so only confuses the customers.  If I see an 80 I assume I'm going to be getting a good game when the game really is 4.  They should review the game in its current state and then if it actually gets fixed update the review.

Oh so you fell for my viral marketing campaign that even eclipsed FFXIV's budget itself!

GameTrailers reviewing the story s blantantly stupid though. It's an MMO and you need to level up to witness the story/ There is no way in HELL he did all the quests. and the story is one of the very good things about XIV.

I think thats why IGN's review isn't up yet.....they are still doing the story.

At which point can we use the words 'fail' and 'doomed' pls?

First of all spell "pls" correctly, it is "plz".

Secondly Epic fail is the word to use if IGN is below 5/10 too!


Ok, the game is domed and it's an epic failzzz!

(Could revise after IGN).

IGN's mini preview was kinda positive, who knows what way they'll go, but many times games get positive previews but bad reviews!

Ign have a thesis/review of the game here:

http://uk.pc.ign.com/articles/112/1123824p1.html

No score, but does give a good idea of where the problems are, and what works well... OK I only read the conclusion, but still :P



this is gonna be interesting lol.

That was only a small part of their problems with the game though.  No auction house?  No mail even?

I've been following Kotaku's weekly articles on the game as well and they have much the same things to say about the game as GT did.
