The final three paragraphs are so mean.

In a sense, all he says is kind of true. We don't want to see another Zelda get less than a perfect fucking ten. And I insist on fucking.

But yes, very unprofessional way to go.

He could just have left these three lines away and have a nice and clean explanation article, but no, he ultimately wanted to rub this in. This is so terribly redundant. I really don't like how one can be so unprofessional and still make a living.

Wait, aren't you the one who claimed EDGE was a bunch of Nintendo fanboys in the first place? Why don't you just enjoy your games and stop trying to downplay others?

I mean, he isn't the one who came to a thread about Mario Odyssey, just to fill pages gushing about how God of War is gonna make anything made by Miyamoto look like Steam Greenlight projects (paraphrasing).

Yup. Absolutely inevitable. There's no chance he won't grab such an easy opportunity.

Then the thousands of people who will blindly support his reasons for his outlyer score, especially those who will have not played said game.

I won't be surprised if he has an outlier score for Odyssey to get clicks, attention, whatever. He did if for BOTW.

Totally agree!

Yes, kind of true. But it's not the whole truth.

He didn't get crucified for giving Zelda less than a 10, he got flack because he gave it a 7 and then fueled the fire by acting like he had no idea why people were angry.

On one hand he is an over the top character, but on the other hand he really enjoys being a jerk.

Yes, and that is why I couldn't rely on him to make up my mind about games.

Flamboyant characters are dangerous - they get caught up in their act and tend to hinge on the edge of sensationalism to fuel their character agenda. There is a fine line between acting like a jerk and being one - something vivster can't grasp the subtleties. You give 7 to BotW because you felt like it was the score it deserved, not because you want to be edgy and ''more honest'' - all reviewers that aspires to be in the margin borrow the same excuse, but it's an easy one. Those last 3 sentences felt like a jolt and undermined his review in a whole, akin to how he handled the Zelda flack. He could have stand in a honorable way by his decision, because the article was well-written.



Edge is one of the magazines I respect the most.

Fully deserved. Super Mario Odyssey looks incredible. Can't wait to play it.
