Yikes, in an industry where the journalism generally skews positive, this is pretty bad.

When are they gonna learn they can't reproduce the reception of the first game?
- If it doesn't have a gangly, hard to control protagonist, then it's not going to be the same.

And this review by Skill Up. And this review by RagnarRox.
I guess the moral of the story is don't listen to these shitty "games journalists" that have to crank out reviews on a daily basis. Listen to your favorite YouTube games reviewer, who actually fucking plays these games, and get their opinion.
- steam user review score and youtuber reviewers seem like the best combo.

Odd, GManLives gave it a good review. I feel like a lot of these reviewers are basing their opinion off of the bad sequels before it.

Props to honest reviewers. Fuck off, PC Gamer. You used to be good… in the 90s.
- Why does a slightly more positive review make them dishonest?
  
  It’s really weird how with gaming reviews in particular, people seem to demand uniformity. You’re a shill if you positively review a game that’s mostly reviewing poorly, and a hack if you give a game that’s reviewing well a number that isn’t high enough.
