I'm waiting for Yahtzee to rip into it. He has a knack for separating the merely pedestrian from the truly terrible. If he can't laugh at DNF, there's a good chance I won't be able to, either.
- zecg 15y agoThere's nothing to laugh at. It's just bad. Offensive is besides the point, that's how bad it is. Humour used to be ancillary, now the shooting is so bad, the design feels haphazard and the whole thing is so linear that self-references and unfunny shit are front and center. It's rather embarrassing.
- roc 15y agoYeah, as I was reading the review, I was willing to give the game a rent despite Kuchera's complaints about the comedy. But when he started going on about the checkpoints, health, shooting, chopping, loading and level design... my willingness evaporated.
- GeneralWaste 15y agoQuite. My reaction to reading the Ars Tech article was 'I need a second opinion' followed by checking Zero Punctuation to see if a video was up yet. If you are looking for a ZP review a genuine one isn't up as of this exact minute - there is a review of DNF on the site but it's a 'tribute' of sorts from September 2010. I look forward to Yahtzee's take on the real thing.
- redthrowaway 15y agoThe DNF review was done as a "viewer's choice" piece, and was, ironically, released shortly before it was announced that Gearbox would finish DNF.
