What score did Death Stranding get?

Does reputation mean nothing to you?

Kojima has consistently made game that have scored 90 or above, on the other hand Rare have made moving but gooseberry fool apart from Viva Piñata since the MS purchase, I could see Sea of Thieves being panned by the critics a mile off.

Great developers continue to make great games and poor developers continue to do the opposite.

Interested in what you think this would deliver over a Switch?

Portable form factor, games designed to be portable, I’d rather play 3D Land on the go than Odyssey for example.

I don’t want home console games on the go, I want portable variations of home console games. Plus when the home console portion gives me a shitty version of games I could play on superior hardware I don’t see the point.

In other words I think the Switch is a bit gooseberry fool, and I want another 3DS.

The Switch platform IS the 3DS follow up, there won't be any other platforms until the next-gen.

I do expect a small, more pocket friendly, Switch to be released though and , when Switch 2 arrives, Switch 1 will be treated more as a handheld in terms of first party output.
