How skilled at playing video games do journalists have to be? Let's find out.
Headquarters: World War II is a turn-based strategy covering both sides of the war. How does it compare to the likes of Company of Heroes? JDR heads to the front line for today's review.
Rauniot is a post-apocalyptic point-and-click from Finnish developer Act Normal Games. JDR puts on a hazmat suit to find out if it's worth playing in today's review.
Skaramazuzu is an indie game with a striking aesthetic about helping a lost soul. Will you be enchanted by the end? JDR enters the void for today's review.
If you suck at games, yet enjoy playing them, I say you should be allowed to review them. As long as you don't bring up difficulty.
It depends what spectrum of "suck" you fall on, because obviously how good/bad you are will affect your enjoyment of the game, total content seen, etc. Imagine somebody who couldn't play Skyrim reviewing the game, what would they leave out? Imagine if you suck at Dark Souls and try to review it?
Well... in general i feel like people shouldn't review games if they haven't finished them... So if you suck so bad you can't finish a game then you probably shouldn't review it. But I would still say you have to take in on a case by case basis.
Apparently so. Look at Polygon
No. Because if you suck at video games, you can't play them the way the devs intended them to be played.
