I don't think comparing it with a single player game with a 4-6 hour campaign is very accurate, but ok...

A game is more than its length and 6 hour single player games can be a lot more fun than 100 hour games, look at Metal Gear Rising and God of War: Chains of Olympus.

The Order isn't one of them though.

better than uncharted 4... just saying

Ahh metacritic user reviews. Where games are either 10's or 0's.

It'd be interesting to play something that genuinely deserves a 0.



There's only 2 races: White and 'Political Agenda'
2 Genders: Male and 'Political Agenda'
2 Hairstyles for female characters: Long and 'Political Agenda'
2 Sexualities: Straight and 'Political Agenda'

Not for me and Uncharted 4 is 10 hours long and also has multiplayer.



I hate user score on meta critic. There's no policing, so people just say whatever they want. One of the few reviews I saw actually just said "GO XBOX ONE!"

I´m not comparing the games nor am I judging NMS. Just stating the obvious that there have always been hype bubbles, that can burst post-launch. My point is hype alone isn´t exactly warranted in every case nor a guarantee for actual great products.

Yes, I get that.

All I'm saying is that The Order is not a good example. No Man's Sky is an exploration game. There is no way you can form a decent opinion on it after having played it for a few hours. Also, I very much doubt most of them who have voted already even own or have played the game. I have no proof that though, so I won't come up with numbers.

Why user scores are a joke:

And everyone else made a profile just to give No Man's Sky a 0 as it's their only review.

Stupid people giving stupid reviews without any foundation. I hate stuff like that.



While a lot are false, many do seem genuine. I don't know what people were expecting though, especially after elite: dangerous.



Made a bet with LipeJJ and HylianYoshi that the XB1 will reach 30 million before Wii U reaches 15 million. Loser has to get avatar picked by winner for 6 months (or if I lose, either 6 months avatar control for both Lipe and Hylian, or my patrick avatar comes back forever).

Enough said really, Ghostbusters a 10? And NMS a 0, hmmm....



Predicted 15+ million lifetime-sales for God of War:

I'll admit I only read the first sentence of you post. I'll expand on what I said. This stupid shit is always Xbox vs PlayStation. The other combination of platforms are pretty civil to each other.

If PlayStation or Xbox has a game the other doesn't then it becomes very hostile especially if the game is decent. This goes for full exclusives or console exclusives. This then leads to a contant bitch fight and rating each others exclusives down on metacritic.

Not sure why you didn't bother with reading the rest as I was trying to make a point as well as another but I digress. Like I said with the whole naming and pointing fingers, it never makes you any better and just fuels the shitfest all the more. 

The rating from users shouldn't even matter because you're meant to enjoy the game as is, not the user score.



Step right up come on in, feel the buzz in your veins, I'm like an chemical electrical right into your brain and I'm the one who killed the Radio, soon you'll all see

So pay up motherfuckers you belong to "V"
