@DexTepa I am sure that modding on consoles will never be as extensive as it is on PC, but surely basic mods like 'every dice roll is a success' will make it to PS5 and make the game easy to get into for casuals.
A lot of PC gamers like to cheat similarly in souls games for example just so they don't waste as much time dying over and over again. It's one of many benefits of the platform. Not to mention the h mods as well.
@mrraditch 0/1/2/3 - Protest vote/negative review for a game no one cares about.
4/5 - Truly disappointing game. You just know that the reviewer has no malice otherwise he would have given it a lower score.
6 - Dog whistle. Don't play this game.
7 - Mediocre. I guess that the game has AAA graphics or whatever, but playing it will make you sad and bored.
8 - I guess it's alright. It has a lot of problems though. Maybe skip.
9 - This game is pretty good. Whatever flaws it has are masked by the good parts.
10 - Protest vote/positive review for a game everyone cares about. Or if you give it to some pixel indie platformer without voice acting you just want to be seen as cool to basement dwellers.
@Rangers420 It's just how the medium went. Good games get 8 or 9(and even 8 will rile up some folks) and bad games get 7 unless they are from a small studio.
This has been the review meta for close to a decade.
@Bentleyma These charts are beyond meaningless. SS was at the top last week, but according to insiders it sold only half as well as Guardians(a notorious flop) and presumably a lot worse than Avengers(another notorious flop) judging by https://steamcharts.com/app/315210(yikes)
The lack of loading screens is what killed this game. Look at Starfield: You get constant loading screens so you can read tips that will teach you how to play in an immersive manner.
I don't understand the appeal. There are a million other anime games similar to this one. There is even less new stuff here than in a brand new AC game. Anime fans are probably the easiest demographic to please.
@UltimateOtaku91 That's actually false. The game has abysmal numbers on steam and last week it was reported that it did a lot worse than Guardians and Avengers. The game is dead on arrival.
@Ramavetos BUT you could also be playing GOOD games while relaxing. SS is flawed. It's a waste of time and resources and it made the key people inside Rocksteady leave. It's in the same boat as Avengers and Crystal Dynamics, but even less successful.
@MegaManX-7 How is it hyperbolic? The criticisms are that the game is short, poorly written and repetitive. If anything the positive reviews make no sense because they always have the caveat 'good if you turn your brain off or wait for a deep sale'.
If there is good in this world this game will drop off hard next week and Steam will stop censoring the reviews so the score drops to mixed and even the most gullible consumers will ignore this trash like they ignored Avengers.
@sanderson72 Lol they are not evil. They just want to make more money per game. It makes sense because literally no matter what you do not everyone would be happy.

Re: A Bloodborne Remake on PS6 Might Have More 'Value', Creator Suggests
My conspiracy theory is that Sony wants people to work on ps4 emulation so they will never release Bloodborne on newer platforms.
Re: Final Fantasy VII Rebirth (PS5) - Strong Sequel Seeks a New Direction
Seems to be getting a lot of 8s and 9s which is decent. 7 is mediocre and 10 is good.
Will probably pick this up when it's on deep sale on pc.

On one hand it's cool for everyone to have access to everything. On the other hand what's the point of going the extra mile ever?
