I know, I was being daft.

But you look at that list and see why GaaS is a thing. Actually, *the* thing.

Anyway, I'm going 87%. Think the technical accomplishments will make up for pretty simple gameplay experience.

But it's always the same 5 GaaS games. That's the problem!
 
On the metacritic front page, I see reviews from Carol Quintaine, CD-Action and Dot Esports, the hell kind of reviewers are these? These websites have not even given great scores, it is just so weird that pubs are willing to give keys to every tom, dick and harry with a website.
 
As expected, its basically the same as the first game for better or worse. Sad to hear that they improved nothing except the graphics. Excited to play nonetheless
 
Good. It is what it is.

If you dig this sort of game, it looks like it's as good as it gets.

If not, this isn't going to change things.

It is great that MS funded the team to bring their creative vision to fruition. Let us hope that we get many more good games from NT. I will sit out this one as I did not like HB1, but I did like their take on DmC.
 
Low 80s is decent I guess. Will probably check it out on GP.

I think MS did this game a disservice announcing it alongside the Series X and having all these pretentious Game Awards trailers, hyping it as a system seller.

Not familiar with remaining two, but CD-Action is quite known in Poland. It's kinda Polish equivalent of Game Informer, I guess?
 
lol, the game only gets high scores because of the theme. Every honest review (and even some of the positive reviews) have said it's pretty simplistic and the same gameplay until the end…
 
And now Microsoft can kill off Ninja Theory for not making them any money.
 
Review scores seem mostly inline with the first. Anyone expecting a 90+ game or a terrible flop are going to be disappointed. Basically if you liked the first one you would probably like this one.
 
I think an 81-85 meta score is a good achievement for this game. However, would it be enough as the key title of XBOX Games Studios?
