Except most reviewers didn't give a shit. It was the incels/chuds that had the meltdown because they assumed the game was "censored" because a day one patch altered a couple of outfits really slightly, apparently these morons would rather jack off to the game rather then play it and so had a salty meltdown. The journalists most of them didn't actually care, in fact the issue they had with Eve is not her looks but is because she's a pretty shallow bland character.

Couple of notes: - Cyberpunk didn't have "some technical issues," it was a broken mess that took them more than a year to get right. The fact that there were enough substantial changes made to warrant a V2.X naming convention is more than a subtle hint. - A lot of the controversy surrounding Days Gone had to do with with "professional reviewers" panning it for being "too white," with "a typical, boring, gruff white male protagonist," as opposed to whether the game was actually good or not. - TLOU is a game that relies heavily on its story-telling. If a game that is primarily driven by its story has a story that is so bad that it alienates a large portion of its fan-base, could it really ever be considered "great"? - Stellar Blade: Who are the "really, really weird folks?" The people who complains about the modern trend of uglifying female characters in games, or the people who push for androgynous, s/he-beasts to become the new standard of what we see in video games, for the sake of pushing an agenda where men can't be men, and women can't be women?

Describing the drastic improvements to Cyberpunk as "some updates" is a HUGE understatement. I absolutely love Cyberpunk now, but at launch, it was legitimately buggy and broken. To argue that people should have ... somehow ... had superhuman foresight to predict that CDPR would right the ship is unfair. Even in the day and age of mandatory day-one patches, games should be judged by the state in which they are launched, not some nebulous future potential. Many of the entries on this list smack of presentism and, in this particular case, smugness, as if you saw something no one else did. We all played the game. We simply couldn't overlook its many objective flaws at the time we were asked to fork over $60 for it. Not all of us were able to look at it through the lens of receiving a free copy for review. We actually had skin in the game, and that was a justifiable basis upon which to base our criticism of it. To argue that we were incorrect or unperceptive is a seriously lazy excuse for "journalism." Not surprising, given Mojoplays' history, but frustrating, nonetheless.

06:25.. The controversy wasn't that "women didn't fight in WW2" They in fact did.. Mostly as freedom fighters and in some divisions of several armies... The controversy and comments were that DICE and EA outright changed actual historical facts by forcing women in real life historical missions (most notably the "Nordlys mission" where they used an extremely high risk mission done by a small team of soldiers and changed it to feature 1 single young woman a resistance fighter. This was extremely disrespectful towards the men that died during that mission in real life. They could easily just make up a story and made a mission from that. But they used an historical mission and completely ignored the heroism and sacrifice those men made to force inclusiveness. People considered this as an act of stolen valor. THAT was the reason for the controversy! And the fact that EA outright banned everyone even mentioning this only fueled it.

You really breezed over some of these controversies huh? Mass Effect 3 has hated on more than just how characters were depicted. It was always because after 3 games of countless choices made by players, they couldn’t wait to see how their own personal story would end. Instead what all players were greeted with was pick a color and see that ending. And Cyberpunk was more than just technical glitches. It was an absolute mess, but it wasn’t just the performance. It was the lying and dishonesty from CDPR. Sending out their own review footage, as reviewers couldn’t show their own. The lying and crap statements/apologies from CDPR, etc. If you are going to cover a topic like this, than be a bit more thorough.

The argument isn't that women weren't in that world war, the issue is that many people don't think they did enough to land them the position of a number 1 protagonist in a world war game. If millions of men lost their lives in world war, how many women actually died as soldiers on the battle field? Must be a small number, so people think the protagonist spot wasn't deserved but forced in order to achieve diversity. It's that simple.

Trigger warning: this comment does mention mental health and SH. I'd like to point out Doki Doki Literature Club as an example of a good game overshadowed by controversy. While it's not the greatest, DDLC still has great characters, a fantastic story, great scares and excellent and realistic portrayals of heavy subjects like mental health, abuse, SH and existentialism (noting before the next part that Team Salvato placed a content warning about these subjects at the very beginning of the game). Unfortunately, DDLC's legacy was impacted by a rather tragic incident where a teenager un-alived himself and the game was reportedly found on his computer, which led to the media blaming the game and Team Salvato for his passing (even though iirc there was a lot more going on in the kid's life that led to it). It's sadly just another example of a tragedy happening and the blame being put on video games.

What happened to The Last Of Us 2 was one of the most interesting cases of group think in modern history. Finding critics online and asking them anything about the game that wasn't part of the leaked cutscenes quickly revealed the people who didn't like it, hadn't played it and it was the collective internet who decided for them they weren't allowed to like it.

Okay so I think there needs to be a little more context when it comes to Cyberpunk. The game itself for the most part didn't work, it crashed hardware, and genuinely was unplayable quite often. And after 8 years in development and a 70 dollar price that's why there was so much backlash and it caused CDPR to remove it from storefronts and almost lead to a lawsuit because they may have known the game wasn't ready to be shipped. That is very different from a game just not being what a few people thought the game should be in their heads. I'd also have to argue I think a lot of people still think Witcher 3 is CDPRs best game.

I remember when Quake II came out one of the developers got mad because some mod makers were recreating old Quake 1 maps and mods rather than enjoying Q2 for what it was. However if I hadn't downloaded one of said maps and read the readme I wouldn't even have known about it, whereas if Q2 had been released now, it would have been a massive overblown controversy...

@@reviewer945 Take this with a grain of salt since I'm not 100% on this, but the 2010s were a bad time for Sonic in terms of American audience's distaste for the blue blue on the Internet to the point that Sega of America managed convinced Sonic Team that Vocal Tracks weren't liked enough to justify their continued addition to the games. Hence why Lost World didn't have any, although Forces brought that back. Because of the hate, Boom was an attempt to capture the American audience, given how completely culturally different everything was in comparison to the mainline games. Only the show and Fire and Ice were well received, though. TLDR: As of the patches being installed, Rise of Lyric makes the game no longer as bad or worse than 06, but coming out during the 2010s as a buggy and boring mess sealed its fate.

I think Sonic Unleashed should be on the list. It was more of a divisive game because of those werehog levels that really bloat the game length. If I want to play a GoW game, I'll play GoW instead. These levels could've been replaced with Knuckles brawler levels easily. Also Resident Evil 5 could be a potential entry. It's Africa setting caused racism controversy iirc and also it started the identity loss of the franchise, at least until Revelations 2 and 7 revived the franchise.

Not necessarily a game, but a platform: Stadia I actually played that a lot during the pandemic and always had a solid experience with no latency or glitches. But of course, purist Content Creator gamers didn't like the idea of a streaming service being good and made negative review after negative review. Some even straight up lied about it, by claiming you needed to own a game as well as a subscription just to play it. Which wasn't true, the premium service was to play the game in 4K, if you didn't have it; you could still play in 1080p.

look the only one on here i have to say anything about is Last of us Part 2. Gameplay is great Voice acting is amazing the music awesome sound effects wonderful Story..... needs work. All they had to do with the story was change the order of a few events to make the story flow better but instead just made people hate a person they would be forced to play as, they gave it no time for Abby to become liked storywise before making her hated. plus the whole thing of "it's okay to cheat on your partner if its with the same sex" thing was kinda yuck and the comic doubled down on that. oh and the False advertising of them purposely putting joel in late game situations in the ads then replacing him with someone else in the actual game, actually it was even proven correct when an Australian won a law suit against naughty dog and sony for false advertising, right after the court case they were told to either redo the ad to show the real scenes or take them off the air completely
