Just a quick reminder: In the *real* world the game gets 8/10 by gaming magazines and players, it's only being crap in your imaginary bubble. It's quite funny to see you guys talking about incompetence when you can't even bring your imagination in line with reality. I bet you would develop even more awesome games if someone gave you all the talent, money and brain.

Cyberpunk was and is excellent game, despite numerous combat-realted and crafting-economy related flaws.And there were people waving flags for Cyberpunk 2077 for it's massive flop of a release, giving it 10/10. So? In what world do you think that makes sense as an argument?

I'll honest, it barely changed in two years, and the changes were really minor. I don't really had less bugs in most recent version than in release one, core gameplay mechanics barely changed other than armadilo fix, which changed nothing in sandevistan ez mode.Cyberpunk 2077 is a good game now, but at launch, it was not.

Well at least it *is* an argument. Much better than "you are **** and your game is ****, sincerely a random ****ty guy without any talent".Not a strong argument. Britney Spears or Taylor Swift or whaever DaF pop star may receive rave reviews and outsell the best musicians in the world. Means nothing if your a musician who knows whats up. Pop sugar pleases masses -dont discount people who know the inside game and what could have been achieved due to working with the engine for a long time. Sheep gonna sheep.

It's strenghts were barely touched at all. I can list a huge list of flaws that weren't adressed at all.
But it have similarities with bannerlord, both are FUN for me (one as singleplayer, other as multiplayer). Just because they have a lot of flaws and bugs don't make them bad games. There are a lot of bad games around.
TW leads the genre, but it doesn't control it by any means. There are plenty of products out there that take the tactical battles + open world formula of M&B and put their own spin on it. The problem is that their own spin tends to be doubling down on spectacle (Free Company VR, Tales of Glory, Armed and Armoured), focusing on MP (Falconer's Gate) or just being overly ambitious then getting stuck in development hell (Kingdoms, Legendary Sword, The Viking Way).Well, Taleworlds controls the genre. As far as I'm aware, they are the only one releasing games like Bannerlord. A lack of competition tends to stale one's resolve to improve or do better. I wouldn't say the game completely sucks, it's just...not great?

The first rule in showbusiness is give the people what they want. If it sells, then it is good by definition. Poopooing it for not being good by higher standards is snobbery. And I say that as a self-confessed music snob who can't stand pop sugar. I am not among Britney Spears' target audience, so who am I to say she's missed the mark?Not a strong argument.

Wow the elitism in this comment. Let masses enjoy Taylor Swift. I enjoy her music. Calling people sheep for that is crazy.Not a strong argument.

Not really in the same category, is it? It's not even apples and oranges, it's apples and gamma rays.I don't have anything to say about what else you've brought up, but the whole "if it sells, then it is good by definition" couldn't be off the mark more than it is. Meth sells like hot cakes, doesn't mean it's good by definition.

The point is the highest quality in their craft are often not the most appreciated as is Pop culture. And you like Taylor Swift ....man im sorry...Wow the elitism in this comment. Let masses enjoy Taylor Swift. I enjoy her music. Calling people sheep for that is crazy.
