Its a bit weird to say it isnt a great arpg at the end of a review full of praise

Also he mentions too easy difficulty but only shows pictures of Act 1 Normal.
Geez, I wonder how this conclusion came across.
Pretty bad review, not covering missing many pros and not covering cons to a respectable extent. This review really lacks in both directions and is shallow at best.
yeah, reading the difficulty complaints, it was pretty clear he never made it further than normal

Lazy journalism is reviewing a game not stating or subtracting points that the game's entire netoode is fundamentally broken and the game desyncs worse than any game with a online requirement.
That's lazy journalism...
You guys need to take that 7 and be grateful...
Well that's like your opinion man. I think the game deserves a 10/10, and it doesn't detract from the fact that Eurogamer's review is an obsolete review which they only updated the date on.

I understand your concern with Desync but why remove 3 only ? I would have even gave it 0/10

Gaming reviews are a corrupt industry, most good reviews are bought and paid for.

Why do you people take those reviews seriously most of the time they are bought out or if you dont pay them they dont praise the game. All biased bullcrap.

honestly, I wouldn't mind the 7/10 if it had been a decent review that showed the reviewer played more than Normal, as it is, it's like 7/10 for a third of the game content

I think they should review the game properly... even if they will give it a 0/10.
Edit: Darn it, beaten by one minute.

This. 7/10 is a decent score, but the review is just shallow as fuck.
GGG banning all political discussion shortly after getting acquired by China is a weird coincidence.

Maybe the reviewer, like many others here, just didn't suffer from any noticable desync..?
Regardless, the last paragraph says a lot more than the 7/10 score:
"...I can say I've had many, many hours of fun in a game that still has much more to show me and which all of us, right now, can play for nothing at all. We're being spoiled."
