First major GOTY candidate for the year. I could see Helldivers getting at least nominated for best multiplayer as well.

ROR next month. I don't see it getting less than 85 tbh. Great start to the year.
Just give me a successful Concord and Astrobot to end the year

You really think Ronin will be good?

16 is the best final fantasy ever made. Argue with your mother

I loved FF16. Way better than FF13 and FF15. If it got 90+ people wouldnt be able to talk bad on it.

Now FF7 part 2 getting over 90 will break haters, they cant say shit now, its over

 

[Petekilla]

Even the most hardened Xbox fans are probably going to pick up a PS5 to play this, especially considering its a GOTY contender!

Played the Demo and had a fantastic time with it!

Yeah, Corden said this game was tempting him to get one. Lol

Team Ninja games are always good. You people on this forum need to stop sleeping on that developer.

If you like Nioh style combat, then it will be good. Nioh 1 didnt have a huge array of enemies and it got 87. ROR, the open world has more activities and interaction then the likes of Horizon and Ghost of Tsushima. It shouldnt be less than 85.

Worse they could give it 82, but that would be alot of shilling and hating on something that doesnt deserve it.

I hope I can find a physical edition here. I cant find any collectors or even just a steelbook.

I feel like Dragon's Dogma 2 is a bit of a wildcard. It could end up "good but not amazing" like the first game, or it could indeed be incredible because Itsuno is finally working with all the resources he should've had with the first game. It could land anywhere within that range.

I think the particular jankiness and uniqueness of Dragon's Dogma 1(and 2) combat is a tad too divisive for a score of that caliber. I also think that Capcom just can't really do a good story/narrative to save their lives and that's not a problem in most games they make(RE/MH/SF, etc...) but that's going to pull the score down when it's a RPG game that is being reviewed.

It will certainly do better than the first because the polish/refinement will certainly be there but I think the game has a ceiling in the high 80s.

Translated quote:

FFVII REBIRTH has been produced with one goal of exceeding 90. I would like to once again express my gratitude to the development team for their efforts with this wonderful result. We are also grateful for the support of the media, influencers, community, PR team, and many other people. Let's make the release date exciting together!!

Yeah, it wasn't just FF fans who were aiming for the return of FF towards a 90+ score.
Happy for the team, game dev is hard.

Sony need to slap a ring on Square ASAP.

Helldivers is winning best MP game.

Seems like Square Enix archived what they couldn’t with FFXIII, FFXV, FFXVI and FFVIIR.

Yes, that game’s popularity is mostly a meme.
