@Ashtear Exactly. The 100% rating is often misunderstood. It does not mean perfect game, plus every publication has their own standards. Therefore one 100% is not comparable to another 100%. And like in your example conversions from 4/4 to 100% (because it can only be 0%, 25%, 75% or 100%), is done so an overall Metacritic score can be calculated.

For the longest time I think Metacritic is a bad for the gaming industry, if they lean too much towards (in example bonuses for developers, if they reach a certain rating).

@iHUNTcriminals I'm not sure about that, but maybe, if it should be playable on Steam Deck. But I have no information regarding that. BTW the game is already played since months as a closed beta, after an invitation.

@iHUNTcriminals The engine is completely rewritten and changed. There are new physics in example. This is the base for future updates and changes, which would be impossible before.

VG247 gave it a 2 / 5, which is a rating for bad games.

@geosoco Somehow I don't see both games related. One is an RPG with story and characters and first person shooter elements. The other one is more exploring and less of an RPG.

@OttoVonNoob I'm an oldschool Final Fantasy fan and the new FF16 looks not very interesting to me. The fights aren't what I want it to be and the players reported the game has a much higher playtime on watching cutscenes. I'm just not very hyped about the game, and disappointed in the direction the newer titles are going.

But that does not mean it's a bad thing. Game series change over time and not every game has to please me, such as going from FF6 to FF7 or to FF8, or the Zelda games several times. So don't see my reply as bashing, just saying that a longtime fan of the series is not interested into it.

@stopthatgirl7 I just purchased the RX 7600. Man couldn't they wait a few months longer? :D

@NaoPb Hi, I just wanted report that the startup of Firefox is almost instant. I have a new modern PC build with a modern and fast M2 SSD and took the exact same Firefox profile over. Now running Firefox starts basically instant. The tabs are not loaded in however, so obviously the webpages would start loading once clicking the tab. But Firefox itself is now instant operation for me.
