Support NeoGAF

[HStallion]

I believe in Ueda.

That said, I fully expect this to be a PS2-era style game. Which probably won't review well.

What does a statement like this mean? The game was never even a PS2 game, it was barely a PS3 game.

How about revealing what the Pro support entails ?

Basic checkerboard rendering. I don't expect much.

 

[McBryBry]

I'm gonna go 82. I'm really excited for this and FFXV, and I'm expecting to love this due to how I feel about previous Team Ico games but gonna keep score expectations in check.

 

[sixteen-bit]

looking forward to impressions

after so many years......................

 

[Kenzodielocke]

7.8

 

[Goldenroad]

6.8. No game can possibly live up to the kind of expectations people seem to have for this one.

 

[DrunkShogun]

Will be a 10/10 for me most likely but expect a 8/10 as the average.

[hey_it's_that_dog]

I'm guessing meta in high 70s with a wide spread of individual scores. I think the degree to which the reviewer is emotionally engaged by the realism of Trico will be the primary driver of scores over things like puzzle design, controls, and graphics.

I think, or at least hope, that pro reviewers will be above taking the "does it live up to 10 years of hype?!" tack, but I expect to see a ton of that in general discussions of the game.

[Mr. Hyde]

I trust Ueda despite him being stuck on this game due to contract. I don't think he would half ass it. I'm holding out high hope because I still can play shadow of the colossus to this day while still loving it the same amount as the first time.

Reviewers already have their copies?

 

[SparksterMeta0]

7.5-8.5 is my expectation here.
Should be worth it though, having wait this long.

 

[dEvAnGeL]

FF15 reviews are actually great, this will seriously go against the last guardian if it gets bad reviews because a game that was in development for almost the same time did well critically so there will be no excuses

Low 80s and it will probably be my GOTY.

Uncharted 4 while very polished, I was underwhelmed after finishing it. even Uncharted 3 was much better and more impactful

Dark Souls 3 is very disappointing to the point of depressing

I haven't finished FFXV yet, but I played it for ~ 30 hours and it's good 7-8/10 game. It's fun, but doesn't remotely lives up my expectations for Versus 13

Be this year's saving grace TLG!! I balee in Fumito Ueda.

Don't give a single shit about reviews for a game like this, but the thread should be a sight to behold.

 

[Psycho_Mantis]

90+

I believe in Ueda and with, what feels like, recent adoration towards ICO and SotC.

 

[Ran rp]

WAIT. I STILL NEED TO FINISH ICO AND SOTC...

my ps3 died on me in the middle of HD collection.

[Raylan]

75-80 one Metacritic.

Games like TLG are not getting very good review scores anymore. I guess you will hear a lot of "bubububut it plays like a PS2 / last gen game".

 

[bananafactory]

Expecting a whole lot of 6/7s

 

[DriftingSpirit]

I don't why this got me laughing.

 

[jmaine_ph]

94. Book it.

78. Expecting the controls to not sit well with many critics.

that's pretty good

 

[Damn Silly]

My guess is a MC/OC score somewhere in the 80s, but with a mixture of 6s and 10s as opposed to a lot of 8s.

 

[Oneself]

77, critics will blame dated graphics / mechanics and technical issues. Some more stupid will somehow manage to lower the score because it's short and doesn't have online/multiplayer.

IMO TLG will be glorious and will probably end up being highly underrated.

 

[cyber_ninja]

Please be more like Shadow of Colossus and less like ICO. Day one no matter what though. This is the last wait, lol.

Have any spoilers come out about how the obviously going to die at the end creature dies?

Wow, that is longer than I thought

Pleasently surprised!

 

[Wishmaster92]

90 please!!

Awww ok you get 90

 

[HStallion]

I'm actually curious how the game will sell. I'm not expecting gang busters gigantic sales but its getting a decent and rather focused ad push by Sony and the PS4 has the base at this point. Combine that with its long awaited status in the hardcore/artistically leaning crowds with people's love of cute animals and the fact its very very different from other offerings this holiday season (or most any of them).

 

[kurahador]

I believe in Ueda. Seeing the HD collection still managed to rake in great scores, I trust reviewers will be able to enjoy his crafts still.

It means they'll claim it's outdated gameplay despite it being really fun and despite PS2 era games generally being more creative and better than modern games, using that phrasing to look down upon it. But hey, everything has to have the same controls I'm used to or the game sucks. That's basically that mentality. Lol

 

[Bloodporne]

1/10 !!!! LUUULLZZZZ

Anyway...buying it unless it gets like 2/10s and shit.

 

[DrunkShogun]

Now you got me rooting against you. Ico was my favourite of the previous games and really hope ico bears more resemblance to the game.

Should I take this with grain of salt?

5/10

I highly doubt reviewers have their copy.

From what I have seen of the game it looks a lot closer to Ico than SotC.

 

[purseowner]

72, I reckon.

Higher would be lovely, of course.

 

[Begaria]

I highly doubt reviewers have their copy.

Why not? It has long since gone gold, and Ueda even brought Geoff Keighley a copy a couple of weeks ago.

 

[Lionel Richie]

78 the same score as

The Dark Knight Rises

, search your feelings you know it to be true.

In all seriousness, I really hope this does well, Ueda is easily my favorite non-Nintendo creator. He deserves it.

 

[Bluekaveli]

10/10
Game of forever.
