Do you really believe TSW should have a higher score than 7.5, with bad combat and pvp? |

Originally posted by Sebber TSW was never touted as the next god in PVP....as a matter of fact, PVP was never really touted at all by Funcom. They mentioned it, but normally after mentioning everything else...this was something I mentioned before the game released (that Funcom focuses on PVE, and throws in PVP) and it held true. there were no surprises there.
As for combat, bad combat? The combat is very similar to GW1 and Rift...kind of a combination....just you can use 2 weapons without swapping, have to think about every skill and passive you use and it can make or break your ease in killing....not sure what is so bad about that? If anything it's standard, but combat preparation requirements are better than most games. |

Originally posted by chaod1984 When i saw every single website give glowing reviews to TOR, i said "Well, that's all i need to never go by them again". See, TSW isn't perfect at all, yet, the flaws Gmaespot gives it are are more problematic in TOR, yet TSW actually doesn things different from the normal themeparks mold, eyt TOR get's a better score? TSW to me is an 8 max of max. PVP, combat, animations, character creater are problematic, yes, but still. WOW |

Originally posted by Sebber Depends... Since many saying this are actually referring to the animations and somehow can't seem to ascertain the difference hard to say. The animations are bland and lackluster. The combat is fine. Not anything extraordinary but not what others make it out to be either. Pretty much your standard shtick Will be really nice when this whole bandwagon thing about the combat moves on. 1. For god's sake mmo gamers, enough with the analogies. They're unnecessary and your comparisons are terrible, dissimilar, and illogical. 2. To posters feeling the need to state how f2p really isn't f2p: Players understand the concept. You aren't privy to some secret the rest are missing. You're embarrassing yourself. 3. Yes, Cpt. Obvious, we're not industry experts. Now run along and let the big people use the forums for their purpose. |

Originally posted by chaod1984 Maybe for you, for me SWTOR kept me hocked for 4 months and they were really fun, while in TSW i played nearly a week and i don't feel much like logging in anymore. after all it's up to you to trust a site for his score, but it's funny when someone trust that site and follow his reviews he's not happy with the score, since they disagree with you :). |

Originally posted by SebberUser score of 8.7 Compare that to some other MMO's and games, and it seems that TSW has a lot more happy gamers than those others'. Which seems to be the case when I view the forumthreads regarding TSW on various sites (not only here). So far, the general opinion seems to be that TSW is a pleasant surprise. Of course, that doesn't say anything in the long run, but looking at the user ratings of some other games... Lol. Positive official reviews =/= amazing MMO, goes that way too -_-
But if you're trying to say that it isn't about whether gamers on average are enjoying the game they play, then you lose all credibility, and then it sounds you just can't accept other people enjoying a game (one that you maybe dislike?). Bottomline, if there are more people being happy, positive or pleasantly surprised with a game than there are not, then that's usually a good sign. Especially if you compare it with some other games/MMO's released the past year, where the perception and voices of its gamers was different. |

Originally posted by Sebber I survived the whole Diablo 3 forums fiasco, where everyone and their uncle said "Don't pay attention to the critic scores, they're too high! If you wanna know the truth, look at the USER scores!!!"
Ok! http://www.metacritic.com/game/pc/the-secret-world/user-reviews 8.7...so I guess the game is awesome? Cuz like...it is. :) |

Originally posted by Sebber The thing is it dont have bad combat or pvp..
TSW should be at least an 8.. After playing since the oopen beta i would probally sit it around 8.5.. and i usually hate themepark games. |

Originally posted by wasim470 Review are made on personall opinion. if you like TOR more, dude, cool you enjoy it for whatever reason and rank higher. No problem really. However, TOR is the most expensive video game ever (think about it) and it cloned way to much from WOW and waste all the rest on voice acting. that's something that as a video game is huge negative to me. While TSW with far less of a budget made a non wow clone. themepark yes, i've seen almost no claims of it. Everything is opinion. One doesn't like voiced PC, one likes it it. No big deal, however, when TOR got glowing reviews considering what it did, i spot trusting sites. Also, if Gmaspot gave this game a 10, i'd facepalm |

I still think regardless of a good or bad review that the review should wait until 30 days after the release. This is to make sure the reviewer experiences the full content. Being the game has only been out around 2 weeks i am assuming some of this reviewers game time was during beta. With that being said i feel its foolish to release a review good or bad based on a beta partially or wholly on a beta product. |

Yeah not sure I agree with these reviews from various sites. It's not really that I think TSW is such an awesome game that it deserves 9 or 10's etc, it's just that all these places giving SWTOR giving 8-9/10 or 4-5/5 scores seem to be rating this game lower and that is not right. Just the fact that the missioning or questing is leagues better than TOR should garner the game at least the same score. TOR was so mindmumbingly boring to me right out of the gate, while at TSW at least attempts to make questing interesting. There are of course kill and collect quests, but no more "here go kill 25 Rakghouls, and then kill 50 more for a bonus!".
However I think once some of you guys get further along in TSW you might change your tune about how great the game is. I have gotten to the point in the game where it's basically nothing but a gear grind to get 'purps', filled with elite douchbaggery of "LF DPS for elites, if you don't have 2500+ AR and all blues don't bother whispering" constantly spammed in lfg chat.

It got 7.5 a rating of GOOD, I would say that is perfectly acceptable for this game, maybe now funcom can take this solid start and actually build on it.  |

Originally posted by Worstluck Yeah...it does bring those reviews into question. Honestly though maybe because SWTOR was less buggy at launch and you did have the whole Star War and BW mystique. Really I said at the time that those reviews were ridiculous for the game as it was. ...and I played the game for a couple months. 1. For god's sake mmo gamers, enough with the analogies.
