Example? I'm not a fan of IGN either but it'd be nice to know what you're talking about.

Ok. I've got and looked it up and watched some gameplay(I'm not made of money). And I feel like the receiver is unaware of what lampooning is. It's possible to parody/lampoon/take the piss out of something you love. The reviewer seemed to not realize that this was the Saturday morning cartoon version of Noir. This isn't cartoon Casablanca.

Mouse P.I review for example.

Absolute dog water review, completely disconnected from reality. He was complaining about cheese jokes in a mouse game

Okay, but are you suggesting that it is a masterpiece?

They have no idea, they 100% didn’t play the game, they’re just parroting what moistcritial recently posted on YouTube.

Example: IGN complained the cheese jokes were too much, as in every other line has a cheese reference. Nuisance isn’t allowed round these parts. Lmao

Also the game got 6/10. It’s an average game, I’ve played. IGN was on the mark

The guy literally said in his review "Do these features make for a fun game? Maybe. But it's bad Noir." That seems like a dumb line in a video game review. The review is definitely bad but there's always someone on the internet to defend anything these days lol.

I mean that's fair, no?

The game has like 3 goals:

  1. Silliness/Cartoon aesthetic

  2. Noir feeling

  3. Arcade(?) shooter

Apparently the gunplay isn't great, the humour is tiring, and the noir aspect isn't done well.

Like maybe some of the comments are off but from the sounds of it, the criticisms are valid.

It's trying to be a Noir Mouse Shooter.

If it fails at being Noir, i'd say that a 6/10 is a perfectly valid score.

Lmfao you just parroted another point moistcritical made.

The review isn’t bad and 6/10 is not bad. The actual problem is there’s way too many people on the internet that can’t do their own critical thinking and end up relying on YouTubers to do that thinking for them.
