Why have you discounted the current crop of games that have done very well and ignore eagerly anticipated games coming out later this year?

They really needed a bigger team for a game of this scope

Honestly. Some of the highest scoring, most critically acclaimed games just don't "click" with me. I have for instance, never completed a Red Dead game. It's beautiful, plays great but for some reason bores the ever living fuck out of me

This made me double down to trust my gut rather than trying to decipher how reviewers / audience might think of the game as a trend.
The animation to me always looked off since the start. and the scale of the environment (compared to your tiny body) was always impressive.
Good game to boot and pass the controller to your little niece.

I only play open-world games with a character creator.
BioMutant is the next 9.2/10 game after CyberPunk.

Yeah. That's really perplexing to me. Why was there hype for this? Is it just because the first six months of these new consoles have been pretty dry?

art style is fantastic, but its another example of hiding a game and just releasing it which is why a lot of us needed a review. I feel really bad for these devs,

Ign video review if it hasn't been posted yet.

For me personally, I was taken in by the concept itself. Post-apocalyptic, open world with sci-fi elements and fun sounding combat and RPG mechanics.
The art-style is nice too.

Nope, if anything folks were generally curious. There's were literally no games announced at the time and I thought it looked like a creative indie title. That was before it got swallowed up in the "next gen drought-induced console war".
Now it's DOA because people live to argue more than they want to be right

Reviews are as expected but won't stop me from picking it up down the line. Some of my favorite games of all time had aggregate scores of 60-75.
Edit: 3.5/10 seems like way and I mean waaaay to harsh. That would suggest that the game is hardly playable. I would mean the game would be in the same fodder as stuff like Ride to Hell. At worst it's average as in 5/10.

I will probably get it regardless....It will at least be interesting and I want to support the developers. Otherwise we will get even more sequels, remakes, reboots, ports....etc.....at least it's a new IP!

Maybe you should have added the above with "Still the best (and only) good game of 2021" so people don't misinterpret your comment the wrong way..

Holy shit that is unwatchable. What the hell is wrong with the saturation in the playback

It's sad to me, that some of you actually make buying decisions based on the meta score of a game
No worry, those people can play Calculator on Nintendo Switch.

Most games have a review embargo?
Hey OP, why only bad reviews in the first post?

Review: Biomutant
The full potential of Biomutant isn’t going to be realized until a sequel, spiritual or otherwise, but what’s here is perfectly entertaining.

Biomutant is lovely to look at and a joy to explore, but the combat lacks impact and precision, and technical issues mar the experience.

Always looked like style over substance for me and looked like it always needed polish with impacts, animations and hoped they would smooth those out. Maybe they will but might take some time like 6 months with updates and I will see if I want to jump in.

i called it when the it was announced the embargo wouldnt drop until the day before release.

Wasn't this theory generally debunked after many great games with embargos one day before release?!

A new IP with an embargo the day before or day of release is highly suspect. If they had faith in it they’d want reviews out ahead of time to build positive buzz. Sequels and existing IPs already have built in buzz.
Instead we got a bunch of hands off previews till a week before release and they give copies to YouTube influencers. It’s becoming the text book on what do do if you know you got a turd on your hands.

Hmm.. Character creation, open world, cute fuzzy creatures. Per reviewers repetitive 
(I mean Return to the same spot and rinse and repeat replayability), 1080p 60fps, no Sony publishing might drop the score a bit, 20 person dev team, able to save.
My only issue with the game is one reviewer having controller response issues on hard difficulty. Reviewers are on top of this one. Good on them!

I have no clue why there was ever any hype for this game...
5+ year development hell only to show off what looked like a ps3 game during their previews, honestly should've shorted Embracer Group stock after that.

What a disaster, wow. Some people were REALLY excited about this on YT for some reason. Shame.

Some people don't care about reviews and trust their guts.
Hard to believe for people who prefer reading a score to base their purchase, i know.
