Yeah I read that I laughed. Honestly the guy is perfectly entitled to his opinion and I respect him if he doesn't like the game.
I don't mind the fact that he doesn't like the game, but immediate comparisons to COD and complaints about no multiplayer (remember when co-op was considered multiplayer?) make me groan and assure me he's missed the point.
I mean, disclosure: I love this game so much it completely bypasses my normal disdain for FPS. But if your measure of a game is not being what it's not supposed to be, something's wrong.
Not going to attack him or anything, because I think the gaming community throws too much shit as it is, but still. This review is kind of bad in that the thrust of it is stuff like "It's not COD."
Also, I'm not having trouble finding my way around. I will re-emphasise that I dislike the first person perspective and kind of suck with it, but I'm managing to navigate these "blocky, cartoonish" graphics fine. The levels have rarely confused me at all, and even then, I've never stayed confused for long. I'm trying to pull a "lol, I have no problem therefore there is no problem," but it baffles me that someone at all used to first person perspective would find themselves more lost than someone who isn't. I thought maybe "Oh, he's used to COD and the like with fairly linear deals," but he mentions Skyrim, so....
I don't know, the review seems like a bad one. Fair play to people who just don't like the game, but....
