Glad I'm not the only one that does that.Crow you broke your quote there....![]()
Another case of broken quote....this time even with a link to somethingI must be way different then. I see a new or updated game first thing I look at are the tags. Does that game have the tags that I like. The next thing I do is go to the thread and read the last 5-6 pages of thread and see what people are commenting about the game and to see if the dev is in the thread or does the dev have one of their patrons post updates and such about the game. Reviews to me are useless in the most cases.

After the first week here, I stopped reading reviews. I also stopped giving any credence to the ratings.Most people don't read reviews (or even the OP) on these sites, but everyone sees the average "points". Imagine this: a player is looking for a new game to play and he sees two games he never heard about in the Latest Games page and has to decide which one to play. They have the same tags and similar renders. One has 3.5 stars and the other has 1.7 stars. Most players won't even think about the 1.7-star game twice. And perhaps it has a (fair) 5-star and 5 (lying) 1-star reviews (because the dev was an asshole treating his players in his last game). That's the importance of reviews in a corrupted system like this one.
Well shit.Another case of broken quote....this time even with a link to something![]()
Exactly.And for the stupidest reason. It says "Don't debate review rating in the game thread".
Dear moderators: No one was debating the rating. We debated about his/her words. Either you do something to clarify your own rules (add something like "reviews are like Voldemort and can't be talked about. You devs should accept the lies someone vomits about your game" (and I'm not talking about that specific review)) or attach to them (don't delete posts talking about the review and NOT the rating). It's hard for us to comply with a rule that doesn't exist.
Or you can give us tools to answer those lies in the review section.
Thanks.
So, they are basically jellyfish?As I've come to realize, after a bit of a heated discussion with a mod, they basically make up their own reasons to delete stuff they don't like. While they base their own decisions on the actual rules, they override that by how they personally interpret the rules.
It's like givin a monkey the power of editing.

I just check out games that have tags I like and don't ever look at the reviews. I know pretty quickly if a game and I are gonna get along, and bandwidth isn't an issue for me.I'm sure a lot of people would do that. I personally would not. I would give both equal consideration as to whether or not I would try them. Sometimes it's just hard to find something you like (depending on the tag you're looking for) and you need try out the 1 or 2 star rated game. I've found some that I like that way a few times.
Hmm I assumed it was the US slang usage, but maybe it's referential.¿Cholo?....¿"El hijo de Superman" ? ("the son of Superman; local comic strip in an Urug. newspaper where "Cholo" is a guy next door with super powers satiric series like "Mafalda" or "Mordillo")
Tags are important. Helpful with negative selection. If there's something I don't like, I don't touch the game. Graphics are a positive choice. When I start playing, what matters is how the action develops.I just check out games that have tags I like and don't ever look at the reviews.

You know the rules
I just read it because of your comment and.... well...looks like I lost 2 minutes of my life reading his nonsense
How about letting this whole feud go? MC could have said it was not his business to help the only family he knows, being a handy man for the whole household or hold the hand for any and all the girls who would need to feel welcomed and cuddled and settled in - all into his family.But in the end fans posting realistic reviews would slowly drown out those malicious reviews and give those users who rely on reviews when deciding what games to try a more honest picture of what a game is.
This is not a place to ask for reasonableness. Haven't you learned that by now? It protects those that are unreasonable and punishes those that try to address the situation.And for the stupidest reason. It says "Don't debate review rating in the game thread".
