I said mid-80s. Opps.

I expected somewhere near Alan Wake, which is an 82, if I am not mistaken. So four point less, not bad. Not brilliant, either.

Damn looks like Remedy needs to reevaluate themselves.



If someone asks why I'm using an alt account, CGI and Truckusaurus got me a temp approval until I get my iconic and notorious "kurasakiichimaru" account back. :p

Damn, expectations were high for this one I thought I was being mean with my '80' prediction. Well a couple good reviews as it may settle on 80

It was the "Remedy X Factor" i think!

I thought it was going to be in the mid 80's just because of their track record and the years of development of this project.

I already bought the game at full price, im not regretting that but im certainly underwhelmed by the score.

Cant wait to play it tho to judge it myself, im not against games with a heavy cinematic story telling.

One of my favorite games of last gen was Remember Me. What a fucking gripping story that was. The game also scored in the 70`s.

So it looks as though QB is going to be XB1s version of The Order. Fair enough. Reviews on The Order were enough to convince me not to buy it and just throw it on the Gamefly queue. Looks like I will be doing the same with QB.

Not even close, a 78 is a positive score, lots of good games have a similar score, but a 63? thats a mess in any case.

I guess is probably on the level of Alan Wake , but a 83 last gen is almost like a 78 this gen.

Oh I am ignoring the score and going with the short campaign with not much else do to thing they keep referencing.  I am not buying a one-time playthrough less than 10 hour game for 60 bucks.

Ah ok. Well yeah is not very full on content but I dont think thats a big problem as long as the content is very good, doesnt seem the case here, but it doesnt look nearly as bland as The Order either, and is not 5/6 hours. 10 is closer to acceptable.

But yeah 10 hours with barely any replay value for 60$ is not ideal.

Seems odd then. Why would QB rate 15 points so far ahead of the order while they are so similar. COuld be the atached show, but I doubt it since its free for anyone to see. Could be critics regret the score on the order and dont want to do the same, cuz a lot of peoplee enjoyed the order, even me and did as you said and bought for $10.



It takes genuine talent to see greatness in yourself despite your absence of genuine talent.
