Renewal (Mon 27th Apr, 2020 10:30 BST): Crossing the Animals: New Horizons been available for more than a month now and reviews of indirect users (as well as a good number of poor quality scores) continue to fly.
Last month, we reported that Nintendo's biggest release was eagerly anticipated by angry and angry fans. Many users have taken to reviewing the Metacritic site to vent their frustration – sometimes indiscriminately, sometimes just jumping on the bandwagon – and the situation has worsened ever since.
As it stands, the negative review scores are now positive, bringing the average user rating to 5.1.
As emphasized in our first article below, some of the criticisms featured in the site user reviews there is It works perfectly – one island rule is almost always a reason for getting low points – but a lot of others are just attacking for no apparent reason.
The quotes below are taken from reviews of & # 39; 0/10 & # 39; – note how the first user didn't play the game, and we won't even try to analyze the last one.
"This is probably a good game but you can't fully see it if you're the second player in the same console. This should be the worst game design decision ever made … Shame on you Nintendo."
"It's locked in one island in an attempt to steal the disgusting money from Nintendo. And it's a stupid game in general – who likes doing homework to get out of debt to a raccoon?"
"Nintendo games are really down the hill and the problem is that people buy these games because of the neglect before the parents split up."
Original article (Friday, 24 Mar, 2020 10:15 GMT): Once again, the big release on the Nintendo switchch is reviewed — by shy players.
Crossing the Animals: New Horizons it has been a big hit with critics – and we are included – and it looks like it will go down dramatically with most of the players who have been sharing screenshots of their islands on social media over the past few days. Some players are less happy, however, to take a review of the aggregator site Metacritic to install its own user review system.
The game currently has an excellent rating of 91 based on 58 reviews from sites and critics, but the user rating currently sits at 6.5, with an increasing number of negative reviews coming in a day. Average value is not as bad as it may be due to a larger number of positive reviews, but the written reviews themselves make for a real read.
Almost all of the negative comments are a concern for many New Horizons players, and in particular how only one island has been created with the Nintendo Switch program. As we expected, rather than exploring every aspect of the game calmly, users took the opportunity to drag the game down by a score of zero to prove their point. Here are some comments to choose from:
… If you have more than one person in your home who wants to play the game, you need two switches. The worst decision I have ever seen, this even beats EA. Congratulations Nintendo, you have become the worst video game company this year!
You bought a toy with the wife. While possible, we cannot have our own islands. After doing some research, Nintendo has been extremely impressed with each episode … From now on we'll stick to our Playstation. At least Tony respects his customers.
The limits of one island per Conversion (not per box, per exchange) are unreasonable. Apparently Nintendo is just trying to sell more Swichi consoles … Sorry but this is 0/10.
Not for multiplayer included people:
The purpose of the game is unclear, there are many tasks but none of them lead to the ultimate goal or at least I didn't see the exciting narrative behind it, it's sad and shameful that having high-tech hardware like Nintendo Switch Developer has chosen that in this annoying world with a roller coaster and won't make them jump into the open world as much as it does. some sagas.
Now, criticism of the way the game handles multiplayer certainly works – it's easy to understand why fans will be upset about the limitations – but the critical & # 39; 0 & # 39; s scoring points certainly aren't. The single-player content is truly amazing, and the game offers multiplayer functionality, even if the setup doesn't suit everyone's expectations.
Thankfully, as of now, most of the negative reviews bring in some valid points despite their poor scores on 0 0, so hopefully this won't go out of hand. Other recent games such as Pokémon Sword and Shield, Pokémon: Let Go, and Astral Chain also dealt with bomb treatment.
