I see that Rapier, the person who posted the review of The Order 1886, got banned on NeoGAF. Does anybody know why?


Sadly they don't tell the community why But he is only one of many, many others and getting banned on neogaf can happen to anyone as the mods there are free to do whatever they do so if anyone posts something they don't want to hear, you are off for a few weeks.

That said rumor has it that he was banned for backseat moderating.



Around the Network

The problem with "professional" reviewers is that they're rarely impartial, and certainly not professional in any way.

I mean, you can dislike the game but some go as far as saying that it has no artistic direction... That makes zero sense! Scores between 0 and 4 should be reserved for buggy or slightly buggy games.

Look at giant bomb or eurogamer's review of DriveClub, among others since it seems they all had their reviews written by some MS pr person, it's almost as if they had played a different game than the one players got (look at the reaction many had for it).

Also it's pretty convenient that they did not notice ANY of the issues in Assasin's Creed 2014 or Halo:MCC's single player campaigns (neither of which is completely fixed as of now)... Nothing prior to launch led anyone to believe there maybe any issues with either of those! (And I am not talking about the multiplayer aspect of the games, which seems to be the only problem admitted by some sites, even when single player in some cases is also somewhat broken.

To me this all seems like there is some unwarranted hate for some titles, this is not my problem if reviewers let their bias get in the way of their credibility, most of them are out of touch with the gaming community or are too busy taking perks from MS to even realise the damage they are taking.
