Forums - Sony - The Witness Review (IGN 10/10)

AEGRO on 26 January 2016

Great Console Exclusive for the PS4.

Also, im happy that the game sales have been surpassing Jonathan Blow expectations. The game is already on the top charts of Steam.

The game has been receiving praise from every reviewer, great games deserve great sales.

Do you know what indie means? Do you understand that an independent studio can make a AAA quality game?  I suppose you won't acknowledge a developer until they have spread their legs open at the altar of the church of Activision and EA.  So if The Witness doesn't have EA stitched across its vagina then it can't be worth more than $10.  Nearly 100 hours of gameplay, hundreds of puzzles woven together in a dense visually appealing setting with mystery and a story.  A deserved 10/10, the culmination of thousands of man hours and it's only $40.

The requirements of this game in PC are really low, a very old computer can move it so I guess that makes its potential market on steam really huge.

no there was not more work behind it than for both resi 0 and 1 even for the remastered versions, and if you havent played both or missed one this a huge better value.

Just look at the Witness it has no story, no voice acting, no character design, no substance. The graphics look very mediocore and so looks the gameplay, at least to me. Go look at games like Fatal Frame 5, Akiba Strip, Onechebara Z2, Deception 4 what they offer in the same categories mentioned for a similiar price point. And then look at their reviews on metacritic which get completley trashed by these reviewers.

Its unbelievable how Indies think they can charge their games now for 40$ and they still get away with it by reviewers. Wasnt this one of the great point of indies that they are so cheap?

personally I'd rather pay $100 for The Witness than $1 for any of those copy/paste trope games (atleast Deception seems to have a fun fighting system) you adore

Braid is still one of the best times I ever had in puzzle games and in gaming overall

Why i left PC gaming

 

(2015) Question for PS4 owners: if the situation would be reverse? would you still play on PS4?

Eh, value is in the eye of the beholder, I guess.

 

I think 40 dollars/euros for The Witness digital is asking too much, no matter how many hours of content it has; but if it brings a physical edition, with a nice box and disc, then I have no complains, because I'd feel that's a nice price entry for any new physical game.

Looks good. I will wait a bit for physical version or for it to go on sale. 2016 is just too loaded with titles I want.

That review paints a way different picture than I expected. Now I want this game. I'll wait for it to be $20 though. It's not like I've got a shortage of stuff to play at the moment.
