So far, wow, the meta is quite high!

Pleasantly surprised by the love the game is receiving so far.

If you're going to accumse me of being a hypocrit, you had better have more effing evidence than your excessive quibbling for...what is even the bloody point of this?  All I said - ALL  I said - was that I knew the game would score well - well being a general statement of quality, not a specific one - because past games have scored well.  I was merely contrasting my perspective to the one put forward by numerous individuals on the internet and, yes, this very forum, that it would score significantly lower than previous souls games due to an anti-Sony conspiracy or anti-Sony sentiments.  In that context, it being the best or worst is insignificant so long as it scored well - which it has - and within a reasonable deviation - 1 or 2 points  - of the previous titles, which it has.  In the context of my statements, it's place in history is entirely irrelevant. 

I don't know what you're accusing me of or arguing with me over but it's not what I said.  So I'd appreciate it if you would stop your strawmanning cause it is seriously starting to chafe. 

Well I tried explaining it with lots of words so we'll switch things up since I don't want to write a text wall and you don't want to read another.  It's not just scoring well, it's scoring better.  Say that is semantics but it's an important distinction to make.

I get what you're saying and I would have made that distinction if it were relevant to what I was saying.  I'm not trying to downplay Bloodborne.  I'm downplaying the whole conspiracy idea.  And the reason I am is because Bloodborne is scoring well.  For the purposes of my comment, the position of the game's score relative to past games was only relevant in so much as it proved my point:  Souls games get good scores.  And that is a true statement.  The statements "Bloodborne is scoring well" and "Bloodborne is scoring better" are not mutually exclussive statements, both are true.  The distinction is not relevant to what I was saying.  Which is why I am getting annoyed that you are for harranguing me about it.

It will probably flop, greatness has to await.


What exactly is that prediction based on...?


Everything on the PS4 will flop, greatness has to wait. :D

 

Edit: With those reviews at this time I think they will have to change there slogan to greatness is here lol I'm very happy that the first must have on the PS4 is finally here.

Starting to think if it weren't for those loadtimes we'd be looking at a 96 here. Doubt Japanese devs care too much about Metacritic though.

Unless this game moves up a few points, I don't think it'll get the majority of GOTYs. Zelda U should be releasing this year, and even Skyward Sword has a 93 meta-critic. An open-world Zelda game is guaranteed 93+. Windwaker (95), TP(95/96), SS (93), Majora's Mask (95 on N64), and of course Ocarina of Time (99) all have 93 or above scores.

Excellent scores so far.

If metacritic decided GOTY then Shadow of Mordor (84) and Dragon Age: Inquisition (89) would have lost Bayonetta 2 (91), but they didn't.

A lot of damn good games coming out this year any way. I'm hoping for Persona 5 to get the cheeky GOTY award here and there :^)
