After trying the whole roster, I now have my eye on three: Order Sol, A.B.A., and Venom. Im still a total begginner, and trying to not put the game back in the shelf again like a few months back tho.

Still I do look at it highly because high-level gameplay looks awesome, and the music and story mode were quite good EDIT: I actually was planning to go just with Sol the first time I tried it, but yk, seeing xPhantom and all I had my mind blown

lol, I sure didnt want to make an ad without getting paid for it.

+R mentioned, nice, but I dont think I get what you mean by those games being a happy middle ground

I get what you mean but at the same time, it’s not that big of a deal. Because if a game that is really complained about seems good to me, I may still include it because the reviews arent managing to convince me. Though realistically, I may fail to catch that.

As for the opposite case, where a game that passes the review stage turns out to not be so bold, well… tough luck. I mean it could still be good and be safe, like Mario Kart 8, and that isnt really a problem I feel.

I also read something about him saying something like that in an interview. I’ve not seen much of the actual game, but ironically it has still been accused of being too safe, in spite of what Kojima said

I do agree, as only reading reviews feels like getting to know a game only at a surface level. I’d like to believe that I won’t miss anything by ignoring those games that I excluded but really it is inevitable.

yeah basically. Funnily enough, I did mark those comments that didn’t repeat as unverified kind of like you say haha
