Is it review bombing if the criticism is about performance or difficulty curve? I'm not too fond of the suggestion that non-meta reasoning is a basis for review bombing.
If the argument is the reviewer is stupid for not following instructions that's fair but I think people are not using the term right.
There is no compatibility with the VR1 titles, the price being as much as the console. Was there any game that could not have been just playable not in vr?
Please stop the bloat, compress some audio, make language audio an individual download instead of packing in 5 different languages, and fully segregate warzone to its own download. Heck make 4k textures a separate download I sit 6ft away a higher fidelity than 1080p has no use.
What needs an adjustment? Development budgets? Marketing budgets? The price of games?
Or is everyone being made to pay for terrible leadership choices? Embracer stretched themselves while betting on a cash infusion that didn't happen, Microsoft has been cannibalizing their sales by putting all their titles on gamepass, Sony's has been putting all their eggs in 2 or 3 big game baskets and gambling on hardware accessories that would make 90's Sega blush.
