It has its flaws, but then again every game has its flaws. | ||

Gameplay would have to be super sharp for me to buy a game like that on release but if it's good I could be swayed. Diablo with guns has treated me well so far. | ||

As long as you pay attention to reviews and reception when the game is actually released I don't think there's anything wrong with being hyped for a game.

She's been doing it for a few years now so I imagine she is. | ||

Is there even a decent game reviewing mag any more? Most gaming reviews and hype articles read like Apple press releases, and their dedicated reviewer/media hypetrain. I mean, when was the last time there was a massive hypetrain that wasn't a massive letdown? Maybe Half Life 2 (and their episodes?) | ||

And even Bloodborne and Witcher 3 were hyped up quite a bit within the gaming community. | ||

Witcher 3 hypetrain came to a screeching halt for PC community due to "muh graphics downgrade". GTA5 hypetrain slowed the fuck down due to 2 year wait for port, + ban people for modding single player. Sm4sh still not successor to Melee. etc etc etc. | ||

My biggest issue was that I bought it on impulse for Xbox rather than waiting like 5 days and getting it on PC (I was home for a holiday during college). And then I just refused to buy it again. | ||
