This is an interesting pattern in IGN reviews. It appears they give better reviews to games that "don't appeal to the male gaze," a term these gaming journos have fabricated. Games for "gentlemen" made for gamers with no political agendas always get worse reviews, apparently. I don’t trust them at all, they seem to inflate scores for games that fit their agendas or that paid them.

What qualifications do you think a guy working at IGN has that make his scores more valid than someone who has played all of their lives? In the past, one could argue that a movie critic was someone who had studied an actual cinema career and knew about narrative, direction, composition, lighting, etc But today that figure practically doesn't exist, and much less for videogames. People doing reviews are just a dude who decided to write their thoughts on a game, or failed journalists who ended up hired to review games. There's nothing a game journalist knows that qualifies them to write a review better than me. I've probably played much more games than them too. And i have studied an arts career specialized on cinema and media storytelling. And my review is not conditioned to trying to please the developer for review copies.

@IrishNinja1981 @kabrutusdeid Two options,both bad: 1) she did work in the game and put some deranged idea somewhere still not exposed yet 2) she did nothing in the game,but was paid anyways,like a mafia protection racket to avoid bad press from her woke media friends

One reason people seek out niche media is specifically to avoid generic mainstream slop. I do not want things to cater to everybody because most people have shit taste. I want the things I like to continue catering to me - that's why I like them in the first place.

This Niche Game is the big BOOBA RPG MIRESI: Invisible Future! With art by Nikke artist Hyung-sup “Hyulla” Kim, the new RPG has bodacious ladies and a mix of strategic and real-time tactical combat absolutely busting with full energy~

The point of the tweet/article is that after proclaiming AI would displace writers, it has failed to create a single written work that rises above baseline mediocrity or they'd be shouting it in the street alongside the latest graphic achievements, and there's a reason for that.

He visto progres por ahí diciendo que Cepeda no va a hacer la constituyente. Mijos, es lo primero que va a hacer. Es su único objetivo. Es el objetivo central e histórico de la izquierda que él representa. Van por la república popular, las republiquetas de democracia directa.

"To me, a 10/10 game is something like Elden Ring" Lost me there 😅 Okay, jokes aside, you do talk about "the fear of criticizing artsy games", and I would like to ask you if you didn't think there is a fear in criticizing games like Elden Ring? Cause to me, objectively, Elden Ring is a 5/10 game. A 10/10 would be Outer Wilds. Alright it's a very interesting article, though a bit shallow on some points. And for the record I love The Artful Escape, and I haven't yet played Mixtape, but I am looking forward to. So the first question that should be asked when considering what makes a 10/10 game is... On what basis? What makes a good game? Because, again, objectively, Elden Ring is a very buggy game capped at 16/9, capped at 60fps, optimized like shit, with a shiton of reused assets and enemies that makes the game feel like open world Dark Souls instead of its own universe, the difficulty curve goes from Hard to very easy, to suddenly hard again, and ends on stupidly easy, there is no real depth in gameplay or combos as you just spam one spell or ash of war to win, the balance is completely out of whack, it came out entirely abstruse as to what to do or where to go, the storytelling is so non-existent you don't understand anything at all unless you watch hour long videos of lore on Youtube... And I say all that while I love Elden Ring, I replayed it countless times, got the platinum in the first month after it came out, etc... But objectively speaking, it's nowhere near a 10/10 game. Sadly you don't evoke criterias that may either be your own, or the journos, or the mob rule on X, as to how anyone rates games. My definition of a good game is the same as a good movie, or a good song, or a good book, ... It is a game that meaningfully and sucessfully utilizes the medium. So would Mixtape be a 10/10 game for me? Even not having played it, and thinking it's something close to The Artful Escape, which, again, I really love? Nah. The argument that you can get the same feeling watching Youtube videos is fair. Same for The Artful Espace, imo. It resonated deep within me, but watching it on Youtube or at the theaters would have done the same. The limited input you have in it isn't enough to bring more to the table, and it doesn't meaningfully utilizes the medium. But here's the main issue, and the fundamental flaw in how can anyone review a game: Can you objectively say that this is like a 2 or 3/10 game while also saying it's very well made, worth your time, has a good story, looks good, good adventure, and everything? You can't poorly rate a game that's fun to play and well made because objectively it's barely even a game. Like if they released the Lord of the Rings movies on Steam and called them games when all you did was watch... They would both be awful shitty games and definitely worth to buy and... "play". So maybe it's a 10/10 entertainment value (which doesn't mean it's meant for everyone). But a 2/10 game. I guess the bottom line that journos aren't objective anyway, and they're really advertisers.
