Meh. Have no idea who this guy is. Just going to wait and see what the sites that I know of say about this game. Having said that this doesn’t seem terribly surprising given the state that this game seems to be launching in. Still though since it is coming to Game Pass I’ll at least give it a try. If I like it cool. If I don’t then no big deal. It’s a very low barrier of entry for me to at least check it out.

I don't understand why the game launches in two days yet there's still no official reviews released....
@mysticaldonut: I think they are scheduled for Monday but not sure. Not terribly out of the ordinary though. Other games have been reviewed for the day before release.

Also hopefully we use topic for redfall reviews to here or Wenzen's thread. Definitely dont need more thread about this ass game.

That is interesting
@mysticaldonut: most games that push review embargo till launch day usually review poorly.
Usually yeah.
Redfall is gonna be the exception and get 9/10
Not only ugly with animations from the early 2000's, but notice how static everything is. As i predicted, this is Halo Infinite 2.0🤣You wanted cheap game rentals? Here's your cheap, low effort video game. If it wasn't exclusive, this kind of shovelware wouldn't have been noticed by anyone.
The game is not out yet, makes any review suspect imo.
Jesus christ, what is with you people and the hate for this game?
Who is this guy?
This guy, apparently it 's his first review and now he's going to get his channel DMCA'd
Guy is a jackass.
Did he think this would make him more popular? It will shut his channel down.

Redfall comes out this Tuesday and the reviews are said to be drop tomorrow (May 1st) so this thread make sense in a way.
Edit: I forgot this is a Bethesda game, so therefore reviews don't drop until the day of release and that's usually not good if they are trying to hide something. Buyers beware!

What's your issue with an honest review from someone who has played the game for 20 hours?
@mrbojangles25: Indeed. Some people are literally frothing at the mouth for this game and it’s quite weird.

Isn't obvious?
It's cows and guess what? Sony hasn't released a first party exclusive for their PS5's this year, and Spiderman 2 (their only first party exclusive this year) is out at the end of the year, so they literally have nothing better to do.

This is such low effort laziness that we've reached a level that is beyond pathetic. Its like that sweet spot of being so shit that its actually entertaining to see.
You compare that trash to Sony's animations, and you ask yourself why is MS still in business🤭

It looks like dumpter fire. On par with the first Halo Infinite demo that created a mega PR shitstorm. Except this time around THIS is their final release, and there's no delaying for additional polish😆

The product is not finished, is not released.
We live in an age of, for better or worse, massive day-one patches. There could be literal gigabytes of content, fixes, and other stuff to add into the game.
Also, frankly, my issue is with the media culture that requires reviewers to have these things done so early. Pre-order sales drive the industry, sadly, which is in turn further driven by these premature reviews of unreleased, possibly unfinished/unpatched games.
The whole system is fucked up, and I'm just tired of these pissy takes people have based on early reviews, short clips taken out of context, and rumors.
I know this is System Wars but FFS at least base your opinions off of finished products.
I don't have a horse in this race, I'm swimming with games to play and while I hope Redfall is good, it's no big deal if it's not, so if it's actually bad then so be it...but let's at least wait until, you know, regular people (and not stupid fucking youtubers) have played it.

....the game officially releases in about 25 hours. It's as "finished" as its gonna be. It has gone gold weeks/months ago.
Making excuses saying there could be massive day one patches is just beyond sad lol. Is that really where your standards are at?
Lol why are cows on serious damage control over this game? Even the lems aren't excited for this one.

*shrug*
I thought Halo Infinite was pretty good. Solid shooter.
It's no DOOM Eternal but it scratches the same itch.
I guess since it wasn't this overwhelmingly positively reviews masterpiece it's a "shitstorm" though?

Referring to the first gameplay demo. It looked so bad they delayed the console seller by a year for the launch of the X. This time around, there is no delays, and you're getting what you pay for. Since its "free", well, don't expect anything.

Early impressions can be wrong. The game could turn out good and be genuinely fun.
@hardwenzen: fair enough, I guess.
I don't see the harm in optimism and positivity, though. I suppose some people just like being pissy about stuff like this.
@mysticaldonut: that's more or less my point.
You could be right, though; it is more or less finished, and if it looks like a duck, and quacks like a duck...
I saw that video on YouTube earlier, noticed lots of people got their physical copies early so figured I'd filter search for gameplay from the last 24 hours. Here is the video:
Funny, guy gives an overall positive impression of it. And if you know RedDragon (the Twitter user not the video creator) he's a militant Sony shilling shitposter who is also notoriously known for Twitter blocking just about anybody who has an opinion other than his own... 😂🤣 and TC reads and quotes his shit.
Also head scratching, guy in video compares it to Left 4 Dead but with vampires... either this guy hasn't been paying attention to the game he's put 20 hours into or maybe he never played Left 4 Dead. 🤷
The Xbox is in such sorry state @sealionact stopped damage controlling completely😂😂😂I mean this is just so sad.

I almost don't want to kick them while they're down but they kinda earned it.
System Warriors should up their game, how the **** are we creating threads about some no name YouTuber posting his opinion?
And starting to see Red Dragon regularly used as a source too? Jebus!
Funny thing is, he came to that conclusion without even going over the fact that the game only runs 30fps on console.
But hey, this is on GAMEPASS right!?
This service for people who embrace games where standards are optional and quality is set to come out on a later indefinite TBA timeline

Why are you disrespecting Sony devs by comparing one of their GOTY winning masterpieces to this basement project indie trash?
Forget anyone from Sony, this doesn't even measure up to UBISOFT'S level of production and attention to detial
There is barrel scraping and there's this shit 🤣
Cows are gonna be devastated if it matches horizon forgotten worsts 8 and beats miles Morales and ghost of tsunami 7 here at GS
Lol why are cows on serious damage control over this game? Even the lems aren't excited for this one.

lol 😂 look at all these low standard xboy fans all crying together because no one wants to coddle the balls of this shitty looking excuse for a current gen only 1st party console exclusive.
It's ok guys...remember it's on Gamepass where quality and standards are optional.
Embrace the jank, bugs & early accessnesss that only Gamepass can deliver. Now that's value! 😆 Thank you Microsoft
@mrbojangles25: It's just shitty people being shitty. In a couple of weeks they'll start another hate parade about some other game they have no intention of playing.
Reading through that feed it looks like the dude was playing on a 3070 on ULTRA settings? Yet the game was looking...like "that"?
🫣 Can't wait to see this running on Xbox Series X.
Hope Digital Foundry do coverage on this the same way they did on Burning Shores! Ya know, being a 1st party current gen only console exclusive and all.
