Can't comment on the disingenous ones because that's very subjective. Some people could call disingenous something they just don't agree with.
Like I said I won't knock anyone for having an opinion, or hell for saying, " Nope... not for me". In the same way, I would say games like Until Dawn aren't for me.
But when I say disingenuous, I mean that literally, talking about the people that would shit post detroit and then praise Sensuas Saga. That will praise Assassin's Creed and yet shit post ghost of tsushima... or vice versa.... or in the worst cases... that would start talking about a game being the worst thing ever when all they have seen is a trailer... and not even one of gameplay.
Man, when a Nintendo direct or an Xbox showcase is released you can see a lot if not more criticism on their respective threads. Again, and I mean no insult, I think you are exaggerating here. The showcase did show some games people here are excited about, so I can't agree that it's all about negativity here on this forum.
I wasn't saying all this specifically about Sony, as I said this happens to everyone. Its done to everyone...
About Wolverine, I didn't see anything special about it and I've read posts of people being disappointed. But I could get if some others like it, I'm 100% not the target audience for that game.
And for me I didn't see anything bad about it... in truth, the game is turning out to be exactly how I imagined it would be when it was revealed. But make no mistake... no matter what was shown, it would have got the same kinda reaction.You know... woke/gaas/dei sony is in the ringer right now... so EVERYTHING they show, is met with the same usual anti woke, lets push an agenda hating sony right now. Even in when the game isnt woke.
How vile this has actually got? They even attack character designs now... or start hating voice actors... like the levels they take this shit to is actually embarrassing.
And you can imagine how wild this is for me, being that a came in a time when character design was what I got in FF Tactics or MGS1...
When it comes to GOW tho, I believe the criticism is fair. What they show had terrible pacing and even worse writting, while the actual gameplay didn't feel all that different from the previous game (except some aerial moves which was cool) and graphically it didn't seem like anything special. Compared to the GOW '18 reveal back then, it's like comparing a blow job to a pat in the back.
Pacing? That was the into... and we don't even know if that's the intro, as it would be in the final game. Thats like saying the OG GOW2018 reveal had terrible pacing. Like, let's be honest here... what was bad about that trailer? And worse writing? Compared to what?Like we in the same industry here? And sorry, what does anyone know about the story of that game?
And here is the thing for me... compared to the empty shit we've been fed on most games, in the short time I watched GOWF... I actually started giving a fuck about a jelly cube.
And graphics... can you show me any game made since 2018 that graphically/artistically would put that game to shame? There isn't even a game shown in that SOP that does that... and that speaks more to the state of the entire industry... and not any one game. But more importantly, every game... based on any given engine... has a certain "look". Just like how you can tell an UE5 game from a mile away, or how all Capcom games tend to look the same somehow, its not different from Sony games on their in-house engines. a SSM studio game will look like an SSM game, an ND game will look like an ND game... and an Insomniac game will look like an Insomniac game.
This is the same with every other publisher... so what am I missing? I mean, from games have been looking like from games since Demon's Souls. And don't get me started on Capcom. At least Sony's studios attempt to use different engines.
Hey people like what people like. Psi-Ops it's a pretty cool game and even if one doesn't like it, I bet many Sony fans are happy about the fact of having more PS2 games being available on a more modern console.
Of that I have no doubt... its just funny to me cause I owned that game... and I have played Control... and looking forward to Control 2. And to me... well lets just say nostalgia is a helluva drug.
