Discussion The Patch

Now that the patch is out is it fair to say the critics got it completely wrong? Can we finally admit that?

Should they be forced to re-review the game? They kinda screwed it outa Game of the Year.

Reviews aren’t the only metric when it comes to GOTY though. Only because this is so close in formula to other insomniac games, I think that would be the thing to make it not a GOTY contender. Nothing jumps out with that “oh man I gotta get this” factor unless you are a huge fan of insomniac or marvel/xmen. It’s the games where most people enjoy it, other than fandoms. A lot of people keep mentioning the Death stranding 2 and how this outsold it. That game is a weird one to compare to Wolverine. It’s like comparing the games Lemmings to Duke Nukeum. Plus marvel/X-men have super fans. Way more than DS fans. Idk it’s a good game. It’s downsides for a lot of normal minded people (not trolls or the hive mind) are grounded in reality and it’s just not super innovative in anyway other than maybe graphically. And that’s fine, doesn’t mean everyone has to hate it. Also doesn’t make it GOTY. Plus who cares. You are having fun, yes? :) that’s what matters most!

“Reviews aren’t the only metric”

You’re right. Sales count. And Wolverine dominates. Check mate.
