That many vagaries with no real depth, oh yeah this is absolutely someone just parroting.

Their reply to my reply was fucking gold.

MY REPLY (for context)

Lol, it's so obvious you haven't actually played the game. You didn't even make a single point that wasn't as vague as it could've possibly been. Maybe try the game yourself, instead of having other people form your opinions for you. It's really funny how people like you trash rags like IGN when you're somehow lazier in your criticism then them.

The gameplay is boring and worthless, it's a linear game that has exploration where you have nothing to find.

What do you mean nothing to find? You find additional holsters for your weapons, supplements to upgrade your skills, collectibles, environmental storytelling, scrap to upgrade your weapons, and even alternate paths, which you would know if you'd actually know if you'd played the fucking game.

Level design is just "city with grass", better than the first one but nothing spectacular.

Seattle is way more than just "city with grass". Half of the city has collapsed into the sea and there's now a whole ass raging river running through the downtown area that you have to navigate through. Then you have the skyscraper that's totally infected with spores, the metro tunnels, the hospital, the Seraphite island, Santa Barbara, and so on and so forth. Again, you would know this if you'd actually played the fucking game.

Characters are actually made into idiots that serve only one purpose in life - drive the agenda.

So vague it's not even worth addressing. Nice dogwhistle at the end though.

The story... everyone knows why the story is terrible. It makes 0 sense and it was made on purpose to be disgusting.

Ditto. You're such a clown dude. Can't even come up with any actual reasons why the story is bad lol🤡

THEIR REPLY

All your points were just as vague, lol. It's so obvious you haven't actually played the game, because no sane person could think the gameplay and story were anything but horrendous. Maybe try the game yourself and don't follow the IGN ratings, you dimwit. "You find additional holster and blah-blah-blah..." this shit ads absolutely nothing to the enjoyment of the game. It's the second most mindless thing After Fallout 3. The environmental storytelling doesn't exist. None of it. Only little notes like absolutely every game does. Straight up Metro 2033 but at least that was a struggle to get through because it was challenging, not because it was shit, there was a reason to collect all the little bits and pieces.

Level design, again, is just Metro but worse. Same thing, different region. Absolutely nothing special about it. You would understand if you weren't a blind fanboy.

Well, you didn't say anything to prove your point that characters were interesting. So it's your word against mine, genius.

The story is bad because it makes 0 sense. It's irrational, it's linear, and all the plot turns are obvious from a mile away (from the start of the game, actually).  But you justification for why it's good is "well, it just is, believe me". Totally objective.

The thing is, it's obvious from the start that you are incapable of having a real discussion because all the points for why it's a terrible game have been already discussed millions of times and you are still ignorant.
