Yet he doesn’t mention site by name. Boo.
So my theory is, he PERCEIVED Pillars 1 as well written because MCA was there, and he likewise perceives Deadfire as inferior because Chris left.
He is a weaboo who reviews videogames for a living, who is also gay I believe, as well as jewish. He has some decent taste, liking dark souls 1, but also very shitty taste at times, like liking japanese pachinko games.Don't know anything about the dude. He thinks that PoE2 has much inferior writing to PoE1 and he is probably trying to make sense of it.
Weird review, spends 10 minutes complaining, then 5 minutes clapping, ending in a positive overall review. He also thinks that PoE1 is a masterpiece, so there is that.
Whoa, this is rough.
Whoa, this is rough.
According to that review PoE1 writing was brilliant and Dumpsterfire's sucks.
Is this guy a major youtuber? How relevant is he with his 350k subscribers?
All of it could be avoided too if they didn't chase a direct sequel. They followed Larian with full VO, if only they followed them with indirect sequel too.
i have 2 steam friends that chatted and asked if the story is related and i said yes, you play the same character and you import saves from your previous games and they all say "eh maybe later i dont really wanna play the first one"
vault dweller is right, especially in the age of 500 games backlog nobody really wants to invest 100+ hours into a game's sequel that you never played the prequel, let alone like it.
i think this would sell alot better if it was a contained storyline.
