Seems kind of like the game is just suffering from reactionaries, but I definitely don't put that much stock in critic reviews these days either.

Doesn't metacritic aggregate reviews from other sources on their review scores as well? I havent really considered any of the big name review places a reasonable source for a long time anyway.....

Everyone expects the next big game every game. How often can a studio really live up to the hype people create?

Everytime if they just listened to a guy on the internet who has no clue what it takes to create a game.
