Game criticism: still terrible. by Mysterio Lollerson 10/06/2016, 10:08pm PDT
From this piece of shit: https://www.destructoid.com/shadow-warrior-2-commits-the-worst-sin-of-all-it-s-boring-384338.phtml

Who is this game even for? Why would you play an inferior throwback shooter when the new, critically beloved Doom is available for pennies everywhere you look? Why bother making a loot shooter with crappy guns when Borderlands has an iron grip on that genre? Come at the king, you best not miss. Shadow Warrior 2 won't just miss -- it will barely even bother to show up.


That's the conclusion of his terrible review. Jonsey, you'll be elated to know that he didn't mention the save system. On the good side, he apparently didn't see any problems or bugs because he didn't mention it- so it's flawless in that regard, which is a good thing.

His argument seems to be that because one game in the world (the new Doom) exists, there is no room for any others. This reviewer can't go one sentence without an ill-fitting quote from The Wire, but he's disappointed that this first person shooter isn't unique. The one he played with a gamepad.

Why do publishers let these losers get a copy of their stuff beforehand? Game reviews from sites like Destructoid are completely valueless.
