knew it that its mediocre

These reboots Capcom and Konami outsource aren´t really working, while at the same time they no longer might have what it takes to recreate the quality so many people enjoyed in previous generations.



Shots fired.

It certainly made a lot of people sad at Mercury Steam.



Eeh... but the game is good! O.o

I'm sad to see they have problems. I was looking at them as one to follow. Theres always the possibility that this is a vendetta though. We dont really know.

For all we know, this could be the guy that wanted longer stealth segments.

You know most people don't play a lot of games.  If a game is highly praised or bashed, most people will preach whatever is the most popular consensus whether they've played it or not. 

Dead Space 3, DmC Devil May Cry, etc.  Great games, but a lot of sheep out there whose opinions are easily swayed.  Haven't played the games, yet they're sure the games suck because all the other hate surrounding the games for some reason or another.

Well, yes. That is actually what makes devs so vulnerable. I'm pretty sure that they're proud (at Mercury Steam) of what they achieved, but they have gotten constant bashing these days, and they can't put up with it. Álvarez didn't help, either. (what a douche!)

 

I just hope the game doesn't bomb.

That's very true, and the problem the industry has created with the disastrous score system we have.

No one trusts a game with a +70 score to be good. Hell, there's people that don't plat games unless they are +90!

 

I'm sad to hear this, it doesn't bode well for them.
