WOW. Hideo Kojima said that FRAMED is his GOTY. Link: https://twitter.com/HIDEO_KOJIMA_EN/status/536188163467644928
I think that's very accurate. It's a staggeringly good game after all. It's real nice to see a premium game get the recognition it deserves. You guys did very well indeed, I'm delighted to see it.
Framed = 3 Stars Broken Age = 3 Stars Crossy Road = 5 Stars Bitcoin Billionaire = 5 Stars Zombie Highway 2 = 5 Starts I think I don't even need to explain what I mean.
It is one person's view and should by no means be taken as the definitive statement on the game. It is well written and well considered and does not deserve to be criticized. I am glad that TA provides us reviews and don't expect them to be consistent (in my view), even from one individual.
Yes, it seems that way. Pretty much the only reviewer I constantly disagree with is Carter. I didn't even see who reviewed that one. I should have known he rated it. No offense Carter.
This begs the age old question of, do you guys like honest reviews or are you looking for some kind of strange validation for your own opinion? It's OK that you like a video game, just like it's OK that Carter doesn't like a video game.
Validation bias. Confirmation bias. Or something like that. Basically means you are looking for opinions that match your own to validate that yours is the right one to have.
Every review reflects the opinion of its author, isn't it? So why am I suddenly not allowed to share mine in the comments section? I was just blocked because I didn't like it (not to mention I was not rude nor disrespectful). What's the point of having discussion under the reviews if you can't handle different opinions? And according to these posts here I'm by far not the only one who feels that this game just deserves 5 stars.
I went through your comment history and quite literally everything you post is in an attacking or dismissive tone about how you're done with TouchArcarcade, our reviews are garbage, writers are terrible, or similar. I'm not sure why you think I should allow you to continue posting those things. Well reasoned arguments are fine, attacks are not.
Excuse me? How far did you go checking my comment history? Because as far as I remember I've got like 2 negative comments on your main page: Zombie Highway 2 and Framed. Did you read my constructive comments for e.g. Angry Birds Transformers? Not to mention the amount of likes I received for those. I don't understand. I'm blocked expressing my opinion but the user who posts the ASCII cat with "instabuy" comment is allowed because it's constructive? EDIT: I just realized my comment on Monument Valley's Forgotten Shores expansion pack was removed as well. May I ask why? here's the quotation:
I just don't agree with many of his reviews. Specially the ones I mentioned. I'm ok he doesn't like Broken Age and Framed, I just don't agree with the reviews.
Same, it seems we just don't see eye to eye with Carter on video games. Of course everyone has their own opinion and everyone thinks their opinion is the correct opinion. It's human nature.
Much more was expected from this game, Carter always give the reason why of the score reviews. And you can see honesty on his words, this game could be original but that doesn't mean it should have 5 Stars rating, I really love carters reviews, he really knows what games are fun, cool and worth your time.
I think given the production value and creativity put into this game, saying something like, at $5 it's not offering enough to be worth everyone's time, is kinda ...wrong?
You're getting a crazy steal if you download it today for free. Surprised they didn't just lower the price instead of going all-out free. Also, for all the new players, here's my complete walkthrough: http://www.appunwrapper.com/2014/11/19/framed-walkthrough-guide/
