@wisdomcjs: This is the only average review on metacritic currently out of a few dozen. It's sitting at a metascore of 88, which, doesn't necessarily mean anything but GameSpot is always the edgelord site that has to rate good games low for the clicks.

They sure keep going back on a lot of promises. I mean, not big surprise but it's still disheartening how far they went to sell this as the ultimate true-to-the-original remaster that even let you load your OG saves and log in with your b.net account to find your characters there and now it's just slowly being chiseled away the closer to release it gets.

I wonder how many presales the game made on those features that are now gone. I do know at least one person who was excited for it due to 21:9 support being that he's apparently a hammerhead shark or something, who won't be happy to hear this. The reasoning for WHY isn't as bad as their removal of other features being that I have played modded Diablo 2 a fair bit and if they're keeping the underlaying AI and systems intact, it IS true that enemies off the normal screen area don't recognize they're being attacked but THAT begs the question as to how little they understood their own game when that's been a known issue with it for decades.

Should really mention that it's only a rumor in the headline.

Cue flurry of rumors about Kojima partnering with From to make a Soulsborne game.

PSO2 is one of the most incredibly greedy F2P games out there, it's like the polar opposite of PoE or Warframe in all the worst ways. Game's a total cluster-F as well in the gameplay department. Sure wish they'd just remaster and/or just rerelease any or all of the past PSO's.

But if I sign up to a VPN it'll block your site for selling my data and being spam!
