It´s good. 7 means good.

http://www.gamespot.com/outlast/reviews/outlast-review-6413987/?tag=Topslot;Slot2

The Good

Beautiful, ominous environments  

Fast-draining night vision camera keeps tensions high  

Highly effective sound design  

Absence of weapons requires smart uses of hiding spots  

Fascinating story told through documents and notes.

The Bad

Lack of enemy variety causes some predictability  

Nonhuman enemies are not as scary.

Will wait for Sean to review/scream his way through it :P So many damned games at the minute. Rome2 and GTAV will swallow everything until FM14 arrives.

The bad aspects listed are not that bad. For me, this game is buy. Especially for its current price tag.

That's alright, will get the game eventually, seems interesting enough to give it a go. Was planning to pre-order, but ultimately, went only for Machine for Pigs.

Hmm.... Gamespot reviews seem to be coming in a lot lower than Meta on most games recently.  Wonder why

Just about no horror game doesn't lose some of its edge by the end of it as you'd have to be pretty daft not to eventually understand their patterns.

This. Not a single horror game remains scary or unpredictable right up until the end. Because at some point the horror has to stop and the narrative has to be wrapped up

System wars if fluff. With such a high level I thought you would be aware of this. Oh well, some people are slow to catch on I guess.

It's on pc. I bought Rome II instead. The whole "ooga booga" no wep run around tight corridors has now been done to death.

It's easy money for lazy game designers.

I never bash games that score 7s. It´s usually consolites that play scores, especially after TLOU. If it was on me, I would count not only AAA/AA, but also As.

I might get it eventually.

Enemy variety doesn't really bother me. I just hope the atmosphere, and the environments are well done.

Amnesia only had one enemy, and I didn't even really care when I saw him a few hours into the game, but boy did Amnesia's environment keep my spine tingling throughout the rest of the game. Exploring in Amnesia was horrifying :(

Someone needs a dictionary.

Definition of OPINION

1a : a view, judgment, or appraisal formed in the mind about a particular matter b : approvalesteem2a : belief stronger than impression and less strong than positive knowledge b : a generally held view3a : a formal expression of judgment or advice by an expert b : the formal expression (as by a judge, court, or referee) of the legal reasons and principles upon which a legal decision is based 

Definition of shit in English

 

shit

Pronunciation: /t/ vulgar slang

noun

[mass noun]

  • 1faeces.
  • [in singular] an act of defecating.
  • (the shits) diarrhoea.
  • 2 [count noun] a contemptible or worthless person.
  • 3something worthless; rubbish; nonsense.
  • unpleasant experiences or treatment.
  • 4personal belongings; stuff.
  • an intoxicating drug, especially cannabis.

verb (shits, shitting; past and past participle shitted or shit or shat /at/)

  • 1 [no object] expel faeces from the body.
  • [with object] (shit oneself) soil ones clothes as a result of expelling faeces accidentally.
  • [with object] (shit oneself) be very frightened.
  • 2 [with object] tease or try to deceive (someone).

exclamation

an exclamation of disgust, anger, or annoyance.


So then, which are you? Disgusted, angry or annoyed by the game you haven't played.  Seems a bit of an over reaction to me.

Or do you consider the game you haven't played but have only read the opinion (see you own definition for clarity) of another about to be worthless, rubbish or nonsense? Again, seems a little stupid.
