Well, for what it's worth, I'm glad MS got their ESG points with this one.

 

[Guntherlibby]

Xbox is getting to the point where their brand is being hurt with each bad release.

 

[Varteras]

Looks like I can put the bib away. No ass eating for me.

 

[clarky]

The same thing happened here. WTF?

Its just unpacking.

 

[BoxFresh123]

69!!! Stop the count

 

[Topher]

25 pages without any actual reviews.

Gaf's interest in this game is unprecedented. This will easily end up being Arkane's most successful game till date.

Or it’s shittiest.

Not GAF’s fault either way

 

[Yoboman]

This quote is brutal

In all my years of gaming, I struggle to think of ever feeling a sense of disappointment as profound as I do when playing Redfall.

 

[Germuso]

Just make prey 2 or dishonored 3, maybe they still how to do It.

 

[Fake]

I guess they like the lore. I mean, about killing rich vampire folks.

edit: I watching the IGN review in progress and I must say... no way in hell this game is a 4/5.

 

[Jaybe]

Enemies in Redfall are unresponsive to a degree that I would never expect from a team as talented as this and from a publisher as resource-rich as Bethesda. Picking off enemies with a sniper will often result in nearby enemies carrying on with their day, unphased by their allies dying off. In combat, they will often take too long to shoot and struggle to take cover, letting you get in killing blows before they've hardly reacted in any way at all. Even the vampires, who are meant to serve as bigger, tougher enemies, sometimes use attacks that are so easily countered it renders them afterthoughts in many cases, like a lunge that you can just back up to avoid.

Here's my technical review of the game on PC (4K screenshots, Graphics Settings, 4K Native Vs DLSS Quality, etc): https://www.pcmrace.com/2023/05/01/...on-detalles-al-maximo-y-dlss-en-modo-calidad/

It's the most heavily bottlenecked game on PC. Compites with Jedi: Survivor for worst PC port of 2023.

Jesus fucking christ

 

[ZoukGalaxy]

Review in progress are such a ridiculous and pathetic thing.

 

[FearlessBelgian]

4 stars out of 5

 

[Jerm411]

I’m watching this now and he is going in…holy shit lol…

LMAO at that XBoxEra score…shocked they didn’t give it a 10.

 

[Torrent of Pork]

Wow. He's a huge fanboy and even he didn't like it.

Brah if Matty's a fanboy then fanboy doesn't mean anything anymore. He shits on Microsoft all the time when he thinks they fuck up.

 

[gokurho]

Stevivor 7.5
Xboxera 8.5

85 from the most trusted websites.
True metascore is 85

 

[Humdinger]

70 was Open Critic average. Sounds about right. Maybe high.

 

[digoutyoursoul]

Xbox is getting to the point where their brand is being hurt with each bad release.

Yet people still kiss the executives arse.

 

[ByWatterson]

It wasn't even the best loop-style game that year.

I really liked Deathloop but holy shit facts.

Returnal was THE GOTY 2021 and I fundamentally don't understand any other take.

[CherryFalls]

Devs are shitty people, glad to see their shitty game has failed.

 

[Astray]

GmanLives has his review out:

Bullshit he was shilling the game hard when he did his IGN First videos.

 

[Pelta88]

Waiting for the 9.5/10 From Windows central.

 

[Topher]

That is encouraging. I’ll decide for myself tomorrow

 

[NeonDelta]

Ouch
Not looking good

 

[GHG]

Arenafighter come talk to us.

 

[OmegaSupreme]

Gman is my go to. I'll watch his review.

 

[Varteras]

Colteastwood was right. Redfall isn't "their" Forspoken. It's looking worse.

 

[Luigi Mario]

Arenafighter come talk to us.

 

[Venom Snake]

 

[FearlessBelgian]

Can't wait for the Crowbat "review"

 

[Draugoth]

It just goews downhill

Waiting for the MetaCritic Scores

 

[ByWatterson]

Absolute disaster.

Wow.

 

[adamsapple]

Or it’s shittiest.

Not GAF’s fault either way

Well, to be fair critical assessment is barely a factor in commercial success these days, the last few CoD games are great examples.

 

[James Sawyer Ford]

Colteastwood was right. Redfall isn't "their" Forspoken. It's looking worse.

 

[M1chl]

Arenafighter come talk to us.

We need to take into consideration that both games have inflated scores, due to them being "exclusive". Redfall looks like early access trash being put together in half a year.

 

[Pedro Motta]

We've been warning y'all, and y'all ain't listenin'.

 

[digoutyoursoul]

Colteastwood was right. Redfall isn't "their" Forspoken. It's looking worse.

“It’s fine “ “it’s fun”

“Ignore the haterz colt”

[GHG]

We need to take into consideration that both games have inflated scores, due to them being "exlusive".

Both are clearly below 5/10 if we are taking the full scale into consideration. Not going to waste my time with this but what I played of the Forspoken demo was laughable.

[Dr_Ifto]

This quote is brutal

Seems to be the consensus going around

 

[solidus12]

I Hope Redfall gets the same score

 

[YuLY]

Jesus Christ ..I voted low 70s lol....what the hell are they doing over there at microsoft

 

[Varteras]

Well, to be fair critical assessment is barely a factor in commercial success these days, the last few CoD games are great examples.

So are Arkane's games.

 

[digoutyoursoul]

Waiting for the 9.5/10 From Windows central.

9.6 actually

 

[LordCBH]

Launch the game on the Gamepass pc app that finished preloading 40 minutes ago. 94GB update. What the fuck lol

 

[Robb]

Reviewers going all out on this one! Looking rough.

I’m sad to see Arkane deliver this mess.

 

[Elios83]

64 opencritic right now.
It seems the game is unfinished. Anyway going from Dishonored 2 and Deathloop scores (almost 90 metacritic) to this must hurt.
