Baldur's Gate 3 studio boss calls out "hurtful", "personal" videogame reviewers - "sometimes I think it'd be a good idea for critics to be scored, Metacritic-style"

  Some reviewers are just stupid people. I remember seeing a review of a game where they continually complained about the camera… the camera that was 100% player controlled on the right stick.

  Did they just, not once, ever, try to move the camera? Yeah, that would be a bad experience in a 3rd person game…

    I mean… I’ve played plenty of 3rd person games with a 100% player controlled camera, where the camera absolutely sucked. There’s much, much more to a good camera.

    That's funny in this context, because BG3 has a terrible camera.

      I thinks it’s pretty good for most of the game. It only gets borderline broken when verticality comes into play during some battles.

  I rate Vincke’s opinion a 3/10.

    This “Larion CEO says…” reporting trend is starting to become as annoying as the Kojima worship.

  But who critiques the critic’s critics?
