    People on internet these days are going to the extremes. Things don't have to be "The best / the worst", there can be nuance, and something that someone likes maybe somebody else doesn't. Objectively this is not a terrible game in any aspect. There are things that could be better, and in total is not a 10/10, but it can still be a fun time. People, just chill...

      First off, 3/4 of these "complaints" are your personal preference, so lets get that out of the way. The game has had plenty of marketing. We knew this wasn't a super tactical game. We knew it wasn't an extremely serious/dark story and knew comedy was a part of it at times. We aren't here to say this game isn't exactly like a previous entry, therefor it is bad. That's absurd. We look at each game for what it is. We also point out it's much more aimed at the casual player and more accessible. There are also numerous decisions you make that do actually impact the story and cut you off from things, so to say there isn't is also a flat out lie. We played it on all 3 classes and took different story options that all played out differently in different points in the game. This isn't the "gotcha" comment you think it is.

People like often wax philosophical about things "ruining the gaming industry", but yet they don't include themselves in that. Why? Well because their opinions are the only ones that matter and they obviously speak for ALL GAMERS. Everyone else doesn't matter. These are the kinds of people that get studios shut down, games cancelled, and so on because of their bitter whining and then cry about a lack of innovation.

You mention how the series is part of our childhood, yet you haven't played Inquisition? I mean sure, life gets in the way, I get that, but it came out 10 years ago. It's difficult to see what's going to be the bar this game needs to hit for you to receive a good score. Whatever we think of Inquisition, that's still the most recent entry and that sets a certain expectation for the long time fan. It certainly does for me and based on the couple of reviews I've seen so far, quite sadly, the game won't meet certain expectations.

    I personally don't believe LegacyGaming was paid for this positive review, I think, chances are, some people might like this game, I have some bad games that I like on my own... The game is out on UA-cam for all of us to see, and from what I've seeing so far things do not look great; Cringe/Infantile Dialogue everywhere, Grotesque Character Design/Art Direction in a world filled with mindless crates of loot, keeping the dopamine going in a very diminishing way, and on top of it all, lazy combat system with nothing really demanding skill from the player, specially on the tactical side, and personally I don't like the way these hits land or connect, they look disjointed and out of flow, not a fan of this one for sure but if there is one thing this review tells me is that, some people might like this game despite his many shortcomings, I know for sure that I can't trust IGN or Eurogamer for that... So... Nice one guys, controversial for sure but still insightful.

    It's crazy how some people simply can't accept that there are reviewers who actually like the game. Apparently liking this game goes against the natural laws of physics. Every single channel that is not destroying Veilguard gets its comments section polluted with accusations of shilling and corruption. The ironic part is that the overwhelming majority of them hasn't even touched the game yet but they somehow know that it is an objective trainwreck that no one can possibly enjoy.
    Did EA do some screening shenanigans by giving keys in priority to reviewers they thought had a higher chance to appreciate the game? Maybe, and they wouldn't be the first to do it, remember CDPR with Cyberpunk 2077. Does it mean that these reviews are all fake or bought? Absolutely not, IF the screening is confirmed, it would be indeed a form of cherry picking from EA that alters the balance between positive and negative reviews, but it still wouldn't mean at all that these channels are bought or being dishonnest. Hate the system if you want but Legacy Gaming are doing their job here, giving their honest opinion about a game. You can disagree with it, but attacking them because they're not saying what you want to hear is just showing how unable you are to handle opinions that go against the narrative you've been fed.

I hope people love the story enough that they go back and play the others for the story because it's that good.
