It's "drivel"
Oh the irony.
It's "drivel"
Not surprising. Once one bad review comes out, the rest of the critics dogpile. It's cool to shit on The Order like it was cool to shit on Destiny.
wow...how do they justify the 4/10 Order score?
"don't dare criticize the critics! you're being defensive"
Last time I checked, expressing an opinion on a review was a perfectly legit thing. Critics can be subject of criticism exactly like the developers some seem to be growing more and more fond of bashing.
I think gamers as a whole have got way more time and entertainment arguing over The Order's scores than the actual game itself.
This is why I can't take people seriously on Neogaf.
Borrowed it the weekend after it was released because my friend was done with it by then.
That game is anything but fantastic. It the most mediocre to average game to be released this generation. Maybe I wouldn't give it a 4, but I wouldn't go higher than 5.
I don't care how many people have deluded themselves into thinking it was worth $60.
Absolutely incredible graphics though. that's always nice.
People aren't criticizing the critic, they're questioning the validity of their opinion based on a number and nothing else.
Which is, again, perfectly valid criticism. On a scale from 0 to 10, even using the lower numbers, 4 is a gravely insufficient score. The Order simply does not deserve that score.

Not a particularly great month for games all around based on those scores.

Did they seriously write "it's?"
It would make just as much sense as the rest of that dribble anyway.

That is a whole lot lower than I expected.Reviews
The Order:1886 - 4
Evolve - 6
There Came An Echo - 5

So? I didn't know that, having played the game, not having read the review (aside from the final blurb, and that's already nonsensical enough) removed my ability to criticize a score based on a known grading range.
Oh wait, it doesn't.
Do people sincerely believe that this is how it works?
Ridiculous.

It's kinda hard to criticize a review you haven't read.

It sure does. You can disagree with it, sure, but criticizing it makes you a crazy person.
If we get a Bloodborne for every The Order, I would be fine with that.

Or they honestly just didn't like it perhaps? It's hard to tell without reading the actual review, but I wouldn't be shocked if they gave actual legitimate complaits of the game, like a number of reviewers who disliked it have, just like Destiny recieved. There's no point in disregarding actual criticism because the game didn't fit the reception you think it should have.
They should use the whole scale and rate it lower, it's still an overrated game. Everything wrong with aaa game production.
One bad review?
This has to be a joke.
This is how people get tags lol.
edit: Too soon apparently.
I need to play this.ResiRevi 2 game of the month \o/
By being bad?wow...how do they justify the 4/10 Order score?
This is how people get tags lol.
I don't think "crazy" means what you think it means.
It surely doesn't mean "I see a score from 0 to 10. I played the game, and I believe that giving it a 4 is absolutely ridiculous."
I'd say Revelations 2 is closer to an 8 so far, but I'm a fanboy.
Make no mistake, some of those scores given are unjustifiable.
I need to play this.

Wow, this game looks interesting. Seems like there are a ton of games doing the whole "space simulator" thing right now, which is fine by me.Outer Wilds hype!
do u even EDGE?4 means absolutely broken based on current review standards. Is it absolutely broken? I don't know, because I haven't played it.
But short, terrible, somewhat broken budget-feeling games like Homefront and Brink have a 70 metacritic, higher than The Order.
Games aren't rated in a vacuum, and no matter how much some people want to claim '5 means average' it simply isn't true in our current review climate.
4 means ridiculously broken, and so, yes, giving a game like The Order, which by all accounts is beautiful and unbroken, even if not what everyone wanted, a 4, is misleading at best.
