Deathloop Review Score Prediction Thread

From the previews, I expect a 7/10 overall. But that was only based on the first area. The constant barrage of trailers has me worried. Hope it's good though.
The concept of "runs" isn't really important in this game.
You have 4 levels, 4 times of day and 8 targets. The content of the levels isn't randomized because the purpose of the game is to find a solution for this big puzzle where you need to kill all targets in a single day but for that you need to make things happen in a certain order (like creating situations where more than 1 target are in the same place at the same time).
I think the idea of it being a roguelite is because when you die or finish the day without killing all targets you start from the morning, but that isn't really important because let's say you died when exploring level X at night, once you restart you have the option to go straight to that level at that time of day to keep exploring.
Regarding progression, I think you use something called residuum to upgrade your stuff, which I assume you can do between the different times of day or after dying.
I would say mid to low 80s. I can see how the gameplay of live, die, repeat could become boring or frustrating. But I hope I'm wrong. 👍🏻
High 80's.
The game doesn't look bad, I am just sick of it constantly showing up in press events telling the same thing over and over again with the trailers.

Previews were positively glowing, but I remember reading some concerns about the progression. It sounded as potentially offputting as the system in Returnal (my current GOTY). I think it'll review a little higher than Returnal given how much traditional games media loves Arkane. 85-89 with my guess being 87.
This is where I am at. I mean, Prey has a 79 on Metacritic, so even if Deathloop is good enough to justify a mid-90 that doesn't mean it will get one.
Oh wow. That's wild. I didn't pay much attention when the reviews came out.
8 by the critics, 7 by the public. I feel it wont be received very well, trough its confusing trailers (once you have to explain how the game works trough various trailer at major events, you have done a poor job creating a compelling concept.)
Yeah, it is a bit of a travesty. Such an amazing game deserved better. One of the best games of that year (and that was a stacked year).
LOL if this is a troll bait, you got a good laugh out of me.
If you are serious, well, yikes.
I don't see how that's console warring. Sony's lineup for the remainder of the year in terms of exclusives is weak. When you're looking for something exclusive to play and pickings are slim you're more inclined to be favourable with what's available. You see this type of behaviour around launch games and dry spells during the console life. It applies to all platforms.
People really believe this is going to land in the 70s? You all are crazy. This is easily going to be high 80s, might even crack 90. The game looks so good and polished, and it's a console exclusive to boot. The media are starved for GotY contenders, this fits the profile of a GotY contender, it's all lining up.
honestly, it's gonna be hitting 90s imo, if at the very least high 80s. An Arkane game where replayability is key in figuring out how to create your own way to beat the game is such a fucking fantastic idea and with their top-tier level design and world building i have nothing but faith
I'm thinking mid-high 80s range. Game looks good, even though the trailers have become repetitive.
