they got away with lying through their teeth to obtain enormous advertising and hype buildup without actually delivering the product at the time of purchas

I thought it was going to flop the moment I saw the E3 and how boring it looked (in terms of replayability), but I think they were overhyped by Sony and set to fail

I think Internet Historian's video makes a fair case for how so much of the overhype came from the devs paying attention to the press.

This and it was so annoying how people could not tell that it was gonna be boring. Like I felt like I was in a bizzaro world. Same with Death Stranding.

All of these broken unfinished messes that get released today are awful, but nothing will change until there is a massive consumer revolt.

the blame lies a lot a journalists and Sonys feet, theyre the ones who did all the hyping when Murray was just talking about plans for the game.

Theres a pretty neat dissection of this on Internet Historians channel that helps to make Hello Games look a lot less conniving and contextualizes 99% of Murrays statements, its worth a watch

That said, we should not give FO76 or Anthem a pass at all

The difference is that Death Stranding was the best game of 2019 without even having to be updated

It was definitely not the best game of 2019
