I don't understand this complaint. Just don't preorder games, and don't buy games before reviews drop.
- proc0 4y agoI'm not complaining, but rather explaining why there is so much controversy with every other title. People have expectations when companies announce a sequel to something they have already invested in before. That's where the most bait and switch takes place. Companies use the nostalgia as marketing and then blame their core audience, that has contributed to growth of the franchise since the beginning, when it doesn't do as well. I don't think I've seen a new IP get this criticism. It's usually previously established IPs, and sometimes they're old IP's from decades ago being resurrected because of their initial success, yet they change it up as if that initial success never mattered.
