Best Buy.

It's been out for a while already so...yeah. that's why it's not really worth to buy games at release/full value anymore. There's sure to be a sale a few months down the line.

It pretty much sucked

I think it was $10 only for a little while. Could be wrong, but all I knew is that it was on sale at Best Buy recently.

If anything that'd be a more accurate judgement of it. I've played games far in excess of that I've come to loathe for reasons.

It's when you see someone with sub 1 hour of play time call something bad that's questionable. Just means they didn't "get it" or barely even tried. Though when someone who has played a game for years calls out faults/issues, you should probably heed them as a warning.

I don't know if I played it for that much, think only half that and find it pretty mediocre. It also suffers from feeling like it takes way too long for some reason, I blame the large open maps/areas vs the past games with their constant refreshing linearity. Sounds weird, but that's my theory.

There's a difference between playing something for a ridiculous amount of time (100+ hours) and say 10 hours or so. If you played that much then you clearly got some enjoyment out of it.

I do gotta laugh at someone sinking over 200 hours into a game and then saying it's crap, lol

---

I wanted to get it but none of the characters to choose interested me.

'lol you played for 200 hours? Sinked so much time how can you say its crap?'

'lol you played for 20 hours? at least finish it how can you say its crap?'

'lol you played for 2 hours? barely even touched it how can you say its crap?'

literally cant win

I see your point but 200 hours is pretty extensive for a game with a 20-30 hour campaign. I mean it's not like he just had to get through and finish the main campaign.

You can still find enjoyment in terrible games, or it could just be desperation that hopefully it'll get better over time.

It's like using terrible gear/stuff in some games just for the lulz or amusement of how bad they are. Or maybe it's just completionism sake.

It's like using a controller to play War Thunder on console. It's completely doable, I did it for a lot longer than 8 days, but dear god was it atrocious overall in the long run. Nothing like squinting and struggling to aim... not to mention rebinding controls for 2.5 hours hoping they don't glitch out making you have to redo them all. I had some fun/enjoyment in there, but doesn't mean it's without issues. They've long since added m/kb support for xbox one, so this isn't as mandatory as it once were.

the way i see it, if you've put 200 hours in to something, you obviously enjoyed it to some extent, but to come out and say it's outright bad with no further context or detail just defeats the point being made.

It's almost a year old and they're trying to reel people in to buy the DLC.
