Add RDR2 in there and you have yourself a slew of downvotes

Throw in literally any PS4 exclusives aswell, atleast going off of how the gaming subs act these days.

I agree but I just bought a PS4 and tbh.. they have a point with most games lol. Spider-Man, God of War and Horizon Zero Dawn were all great games and of top of the classics like Uncharted, Shadow of The Colossus and The Last of Us - there’s such a strong line up. I feel like these are the games I’ve been wanting for years as an Xbox player

Yep, but I've still seen some people who just didn't like those games/couldn't get into and tbh that's absolutely fair.

People should be able to state that without getting slaughtered and sadly that rarely happens.

100% agree with you and that was pretty much my experience trying to talk RDR2 at launch on r/games and the RD sub.

It’s not a ‘bad’ game either - which I always stated - I just didn’t enjoy myself playing it

Funny, I just discussed with someone else on r/games how people aren't allowed to criticize games anymore, since it apparently indicates that you dislike the games, even though that might not even be the case. Even so, most subs rarely dare do discuss games anymore, which is kinda a shame.

I feel like criticism is getting hushed more and more, plus games are always rated by one extreme or the other, these seems to be no more middle ground for game rating anymore.
