watch the reviewers actually like this game. would be so unexpected but ive seen weirder things happen before.
Reviews will be mixed, don't expect otherwise.
This game is focused on the blend of different elements like graphics, atmosphere, story, characters/environments, interactive cutscenes and different gameplay mechanics (tps, stealth,etc).
If you can enjoy the sum of all that I guess the experience will be pretty engaging and rewarding and some reviewers will be in this camp.
Other people will just look at a few gameplay aspects and will say that those alone are not strong enough compared to other games, discounting all the rest because they're not interested in that.
That's fair, everyone has his own opinion, people shouldn't consider universal praise as a way to validate their personal interest in something.
