Deathloop Review | GameGrin

Over the last decade, Arkane Studios has made quite the name for itself as a studio brimming with creative ideas, but does DEATHLOOP live up to its expectation?

Now I think this actually might be the overall GOTY 👍😁

CaptainHenry916982d ago (Edited 982d ago )

It's only an 88 on metacritic? Shouldn't it be in the 90s? I like the game, but I wouldn't have given it a 10 more, like 8.5 out of 10 imo.

TheOptimist982d ago

Most of my GOTYs in the last 5 years have been below 90 on Metacritic. Metacritic is a shit place to judge games because of the lack of quality in modern journalism and their tendency to pander to the wrong people.

2016 - Tie between Doom and Dishonored 2 (85 and 88 on meta)
2017 - Nier Automata & Hollow Knight (88 & 87)
2018 - Celeste (88)
2019 - Devil May Cry 5 (89)
2020 - Biomass (didn't get a metacritic score because it was such a remote indie game, but the ideas in it were simply too good to ignore)

If this game is GOTY, then where does this leave Halo Infinite?

chiefJohn117982d ago

You got Halo infinite so far down your throat.

CaptainHenry916982d ago (Edited 982d ago )

@ChiefJohn117
Halo has been in development for 6 years. Halo Infinite winning GOTY will be great for Microsoft especially for this year

Epicor982d ago

88 is an excellent score on Metacritic. It's same score than Ratchet and Clank has. It's better score than Returnal (85) and Miles Morales (85). So honestly it looks like Deathloop in fact IS a legit GOTY contender. I cannot comprehend the downplay this game gets from the gaming community. Double standards: other games scoring this well would be instantly in GOTY discussion.

Is this game really that good? Watched some gameplay and it looked kinda mediocre. Graphics looked last gen to me. Is it really worth it?

Nicknasty982d ago

Well, I usually can get a pretty good idea of how a game plays by watching gameplay. Is it better than it appears?

Epicor982d ago

Based on the review scores: Yes, it's that good. Why all the doubts? Try it yourself and decide.

BlackDoomAx982d ago

I gave it a look too. Graphically it was ok , but it was boring to look at.

pietro1212981d ago

Boring to look at? The art direction of this game is fantastic

I’m more interested in what else he said.

“Neil Druckmann says new Naughty Dog title could ‘redefine mainstream perceptions of gaming’

Yay, more trans lgbtq characters and awful story lines

Jin_Sakai6h ago

I miss the old Naughty Dog when Bruce Straley and Amy Hennig were there.

It will be something like "we erased gameplay all together it's just a movie now"

purple1012h ago

every time naughty dog make a game, you play it and get the feeling "this is not possible'

from the boulder running towards you in crash, on ps1,
to the massive open world of jak and daxter, on ps2,
to the QuickTime events sequences of uncharted on ps3/4

and now we will see what they do with ps5,

When you start the game Neil will appear personally telling you about real world issues and call you all sort of names if you don't take action now and then you watch a whole movie and that's it

Crows901h ago(Edited 1h ago)

Too much credit.

A good dev doesn't need to announce how good his game is...he just shows it.

You don't see Kojima glorifying his ideas like this and you don't see successful developers glorifying their "great" ideas before release.

It's going to be a shit show...reserve some popcorn.

Its a hard pill to swallow but the naughty dog we once had is long gone. Most don't realize it but eventually just like with bioware and blizzard...it'll be hard to ignore.

H91h ago

Neil just wants to be Kojima so bad, meanwhile Kojima is just like a child enjoying the world, saying whatever comes to his mind and having so much passion, man I don't even like his games that much but the man is just passion incarnate!

And the popcorn is always ready for Neil

notachance56m ago

Ever since Bruce Straley left it was like Neil lost his leash and went on full ego trip, not unlike Kojima tbh but at least with Kojima you can see how much he loved video games and how he truly want to push the boundaries. Neil felt like he’s just strutting around..

please shut up and release a game, Naughty dog has not released a single title apart from Remaster on PS5...

He's gaslighting us to want something that doesn't exist yet. This fool got demoted back to janitor status where he belongs for destroying the last of us franchise.

Can't wait for my physical. I got in on the 2nd wave. Had an email a few weeks ago but I was figuring I wouldn't get the game till July August. Well worth that physical edition though.

bRuud831h ago

I am also waiting for the physical edition of the game. The game is on it's way to me so I expect it next week. Can't wait to finally start the game.
