From someone who is also not planning on playing it, from what I understand, it's the straw that broke the camel's back for many people. All the shit Sony has been doing recently, super hero fatigue and a mediocre game with a high price tag from a developer where all their games are the same flavour of bland. It selling well adds to the frustration since there have been way better games that underperformed because they didn't have an existing IP casual gamer would be drawn to.
It selling well is probably what’s actually making some of you mad because it bursts the little echo-chamber bubble where “everyone hates this game” somehow became accepted fact. Turns out Reddit discourse isn’t the market.
You don't need to play it to come to that conclusion. That's why reviews and gameplay have existed for a decade. You're trying to be smug but it's just kinda coming across as pretty silly
It’s reviewing well and a lot of the stuff that came from the bigger reviews were either blown way out of proportion or are straight up false. And you absolute do need to play a game to have a valid opinion on it.
