I expect this is going to review very well just because Kojima games do. I also expect that a number of the criticisms pointed out in the reviews are going to be substantially bigger issues for me than they were for the reviewers.

Regardless of the overall score, Kojima's just one of those developers where I can't fully rely on reviews. He's impressed the hell outta me, as well as left me feeling disappointed. But the experience always has been--at the very least--an interesting one...

Not gonna lie, going into next-gen I hope Sony announces their games close to release. Death Stranding has been an interesting ride but I have no idea if i could do this again. Also Spider-Man showing up at three E3s straight is honestly dumb.
And we need to know right away if the games are coming to other platforms. I feel like people have dropped some negativity after they announced the PC version, so if the exclusivity thing hadn't happened then the talk here wouldn't have been this digital (hate and love, nothing inbetween).

Anyway, we've had story-focused games before, it shouldn't have to be this big of a deal if the gameplay has some issues. And RDR2 landed at meta 97 with a story focus and gameplay issues. So why are people so worried? It'll do fine. 90-94

I hope Kojima nails it. The more great studios are out there experimenting and making great games the better. He will always have my respect because of Snatcher.

Welp, staying up now. Geoff is here, what other special guests will stop by this thread? 🤔

The final score, whether high or not will always be a surprise to everyone so it's fun to wait till the score settles rather than knowing it beforehand.
So somehow Geoff knows exactly what the end MC rating will be? I'm not understanding your position here. It's all guess work, it's all fun.

Man I just don't know with this game. I want it to be really good so hoping 90+ but who the hell knows?
