Re: Review: Shovel Knight (PlayStation 4)

To further clarify my point in regards to substance, I feel like the reviews should go more in depth about the pros and cons.

For example: I feel like this review is just giving us an overview of info regarding the game, things most of us already know since the game's premise is simple and it's been out for a while, I want to read more of you in the review if that makes sense. A bit more subjective writing I guess. Not trying to make you feel bad, you shouldn't, the review is good, but I think it could be better and like I said before, I like Push Square and want it to grow, for that to happen articles and reviews need to be a bit more meaty, imho.

@ryanorly @get2sammyb People saying that Indies need to get deducted points for not having "teh ebic grafix" and that we need more objective scores... Are you thinking before typing?

Scores are subjective, they are the opinion of one person, don't get bent out of shape if you disagree. I personally don't like heralded games like Jak, Sly Cooper and Kirby, but I'm not ignorant enough to think that everyone should agree with my mindset.

Sammy obviously jokingly called that guy an idiot, but text sometimes gets lost in translation and I'm sure this serves as a lesson to the staff to not pull something like this again. This site is great, let's keep it that way.

Onto the review itself, I like Push Square and their reviewing style, but I'm feeling like these are lacking substance and prose, don't churn out fast reviews for the sake of content, not saying that the review is poor, just saying that it seems to safe in its structure and wording. I'm willing to help out with some reviews of older games if you guys want.
