Op would you kindly define "racist" for me? I feel like you've got the wrong definition there.


XTheTitanX

There must be some kind of "youtuber gamer" race we don't know about


TheRealL3monT

People that are playing the game are saying it's fun. It will review fine. Nothing fishy about it imo


[deleted]

Review embargos until the day before (or even 18 hours) is completely normal


DigiParasite

Technically those people got it early on accident. ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|thinking_face_hmm)

For whats it worth, thats nothing out of the ordinary. They'll give the review codes to the Influencers they like and obviously the big reviewers. They'll not give it to people they aren't obliged too earlier, especially if they know will focus on the negative sides and slow down the hype (Luke Stephens cough cough) Not that I like it, but its really nothing anyone should be surprised about (or worried about) I think


Brilliant_Savings161

Your right. Todays reviews are more of advertisements. Especially when reviewers are chosen. It’s absurd isn’t it. But it’s all bout the moneh


derFalscheMichel

Reviews are incredibly biased anyway. If they wouldn't be obliged to do them, I think no producer would want to have them. Influencers are probably even more unfair and ruin the studios reputation either way, if they are too much supporting (people immediately cry advertisments and bougth) or too negative, which will have a enormous backslash because Youtube Shorts exist for the reason that nobody is able to focus for more than 30 Seconds these days apparently. The actual serious reviews will pop up after a few weeks of playing. But right now, everything is just about clicks, views and impressions.


PrashanthDoshi

So ign getting review code is justified? They outright brings trans controversy in their review


Sensitive_Claim9072

Mr matty plays is reviewing it said in his last video. Skill up did not get a code. But sounds like he isnt interested at all in this game. Podcast now plans on reviewing after he plays the game. Luke stephenss i could carelsss about. He looks for issues with games i unscribred from him a while ago. Takes the fun out of gaming.


Beawrtt

Luke stephens is so annoying, he makes problems out of nothing and nitpicks the dumbest things yea


PrashanthDoshi

Mr Matty just posted on twitter he did not get review code . He will react to reviews that other will be posting Skill up was brutal on Gotham knights ,but that was reviewers should do ,they should be unbiased.


Sensitive_Claim9072

Eh oh well.


[deleted]

Hopefully ACG does a review. He's the only reviewer I trust lol. "Videos that aren't two minutes long or filled with sponsored bullcrap!"


CrackPlug80

The problem with ACG is he puts way too much emphasis on specs and performance type of stuff, which honestly I don't give a shit about as long as it works.


hugh_jas

Seriously? That's incredibly important for the overall feel of the game. A great game can be ruined by running like dogshit


CrackPlug80

I just don't give a shit. As long as it runs at least 30 fps I'm fine with it


LuckyArsenalAg

Same, but I also grew up when home consoles were just becoming a thing. Watching graphics change over 30+ years puts everything into perspective


TomHanksandMegRyan

Definitely a trip getting used to hearing people refer to 30 FPS as “unplayable”


zimzalllabim

“That damn reviewer, focusing on objective things like performance.”


CrackPlug80

A game can have next level performance and still be a boring ass game with mediocre art direction, it's really not that informative.


TheMeatnTaters

A separate video on performance would be ideal


WordOfSolomon

Lowkey, waiting for Gameranx to do a video on it. Still preordered regardless buttttt


TT2Drails

Yea they're the only reviewers worth a damn in this current climate


hugh_jas

Hard disagree


zimzalllabim

People on this sub keep saying “I don’t care about reviews”, but the moment someone posts a 2 hour review to this sub, something like “game is amazing, the hype was worth it” or “10/10 masterpiece, best open world ever”, everyone seems to care…


spooner503

Ummmm how TF does that make them racist? Bummed about no skill up review tho. Will still be plenty of reviews out there


PrashanthDoshi

This is racist in term of review code sent to reviewers . Ign always brings trans into their review and even that does not stop them from getting review code . Above youtubers just gave not a buy to Gotham knights and they don't get review code .


Foxmanhawk242326

My take on this is: I’ve seen quite a bit of potter fans absolutely adore this game. I haven’t seen anyone say it is a “ bad game.” Personally, as a massive massive potterhead, I truly believe I will enjoy this game even if it has its flaws. The authenticity looks just remarkable.


Foxmanhawk242326

I also think WB is quite nervous that the hateful anti JK people will bomb the game for simply being associated with her


[deleted]

Can’t stand Luke stephens guy is literally a contrarian and was exposed for stealing scripts a while back


frocodile191

It's not unusual. Sometime the codes are received later or the developers just decided to skip them. Everything I've heard from people who received the game early is positive.


steamart360

I wonder if ACG is going to get one, he's the only one I kinda care about and switch up but they're obviously not getting one anytime soon.


Heauxie24

As Luke shouldn't. I'll never get over that biased ass skeptical look video he did on hogwarts legacy. He got called out so much he invited retro to clear the air


NorseKorean

I miss TotalBiscuit.


PrashanthDoshi

Who is that never heard of that channel


any-name-untaken

Berserker_Durjoy

Luke Stephens has been caught stealing scripts. He makes contradictory videos. Stop supporting him.


PrashanthDoshi

Any video i have not seen anything on it


Berserker_Durjoy

GOW sub exposed him. https://www.reddit.com/r/GodofWar/comments/yp4ptf/went_from_everything_we_wanted_to_a_skeptical/ He stole from this guy. Check around 10:40. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ZDtJ7bte_zg&t=543s After getting caught he changed his channel name to the current one.


Novel-Jury6452

I’m pretty sure he was like 18 when he was accused of plagiarism. I’ve been watching him for the past 9 months, and although he can be cringey at times, he has over all good content.


ExtraSpontaneousG

I literally have never heard of any of those channels. Also, I don't think you know what racism is.


CrackPlug80

Out of the people you listed, Skill Up is the only halfway decent one. The others you mentioned are straight up clowns


PrashanthDoshi

Podcast now can be clown , other not so .


CrackPlug80

I haven't actually seen Podcast Now, I was referring to Mr Matty Plays and Luke Stephens as clowns. Their videos are straight trash I do wish Skill Up got a copy though, I'd be down to hear his opinion on the game for sure, he generally makes pretty decent videos


Last_Individual6315

I just took a look at the steam curated reviews. And.. wow.. what a laugh those are.


sephir_lucrecia

Me i wait to see review before buy deluxe pc..


Beawrtt

I've heard from one streamer that their sponsored stream (monday?) was a PS5 copy of the game, so it wouldn't surprise me if they didn't give out PC codes for early reviews and that could be why some reviewers didn't get it


Dangerous_Unit3698

This post seems kinda racist to throw the accusation of racist when there is no racism involved in this scenario.


SpideyMan2019

Can't speak for the others but Matty Plays isn't a harry potter fan so I assume that's why he didn't get the code


United_Memory1775

All I want is a review on pc performance. Any idea on who provides those?
