Every game scored across trailer performance, press coverage and community engagement, then merged into a single comparative index
Pretty Impressive for a 3 second trailer. Ocarina of time is still the top rated game of all time on Metacritic. I’m not sure what the 3DS version got but I think I like Ocarina 3D even more. They are taking a big risk with seemingly changing things on Switch 2. Let’s hope that it’s Great. If it’s a reimagining, they should aim as high as they can. I wish they’d aim as high as they can.
I doubt it, they usually do the bare minimum with little extra.
I expect similar treatment as Star Fox, basically a 1:1 remake with little extras and that’s it. But it’s fine for anyone who only beat the game once or twice and hasn’t played it for a while.
If they wanted to really make it a proper remake they would make it more challenging with more stuff. And I don’t mean make Hyrule field a massive boring desert.. there needs to be content, not empty space to pad the game out.
I mean even if they did do more than bare minimum people will still have a problem With it cause its not ocorina of time anymore.
Baldurs gate 3 for Xbox is also a 99 on mehacritic
I think the hatred for Laufey may have added to it being #1 😅
I think god of war laufey was first because of the chuds that clicked on the video to dislike it because a woman was the protagonist. I think they should probably measure in a different way for each game, like the amount of people who liked a video instead of views on a video.
Insightful and well said as always, MrFrost64.
Mom of War Cube was talked about for different reasons such as the lead looking like a butt ugly dude because they intentionally did the mocap model dirty cuz beauty is “problematic”.
You’re a weirdo. She looks like the actress and literally any other woman in their 30s and 40s, the fact women need to be a certain degree of screqable says more about what you think of women than anything else. In anycase, she looks like a woman in her 40s, I hardly see the issue. They didn’t do the actress dirty at all, you’re just being weird
God of War Laufey trailer has 40% dislikes. They gave the double jump, which Kratos didn’t get, to Faye.
Weirdo incel energy
You have at least one really awful personality disorder
Since when is “most talked about” equally to “most popular”? 🤨
I’m just as excited for the Ocarina of Time remake as anyone else here, but guys, there’s a difference of 5 million views between both trailers. You can’t in good faith argue that more than 5 million people clicked on the GoW trailer just to talk crap about it while all 2 and half million who clicked on the OoT trailer only praised it.
I’m not a GoW fan at all, but logically it was the highest rated trailer of the past week.
I dont know if ide call God of War Laufey popular in the traditional sense…
Laufey had to show off half of its prolog to get number one, while ocarina of time remake only showed us 10 seconds of the opening cut scene: i aint throwing shade, but I am pointing out. The kind of hype legend has
