The content that is being released is mostly aimed at people 25+. Game reviewers dont even level that high.

Issue is the false information and timing issues with the review.

While it is highly accurate now... it is also highly misinformed info... like the rumor official videos that have been release on the front page of lodestone.

Also that review is valid for all of 3 days... I mean I would have no problem if they release a new review on monday... but you know as much as me that will not happen.

While the conspiracy probably is not true... it is a "Lets get one more jab at SE before they start to fix the game". And a very very obvious attempt to not get people to buy or return to the game.

Then there not reviewing the game, there reviewing the most boring parts so all mmos should get bad reviews because of that

I wonder what "experience" you're talking about.

Notice that the reviewer carefully removed her own character name from the screenshots (to avoid identification), and all the screenshots are from extremely low levels (physical 2, pugilist 1).

Something tells me that not only the review has been ill conceived and published at the worst time possible, but the author didn't play the game at all, or played it much less than it was necessary to even form an opinion on the game. Reading her rants, they seem coming more from reading some forums than from actually playing the game.

Otherwise, it doesn't really make the slightest sense to publish screenshots that come only from the very beginning of the game.

I do extend the courtesy of doubt to the author though, and in fact I asked her over twitter to let us know what levels she reached in the game before writing the review.

Somehow, though, I doubt she'll reply :D

If she leveled to 50 the game would get a score of 2 instead of 5 because only than she would grasp the full failure.

That's your (fairly laughable) opinion.

Fact is that reviewing a game before experiencing a fair chunk of it would be just another clear signal of lack of journalistic integrity.

Every mmo developer does this...

why you get alot of mmo with scores of 8.5+ and they end up being completely lacking in content, originality, and balance once you get more then 2 days into them. They end up being the same crap as level 1-20 all the way to endgame... and then the game just stops outside meaningless pvp.

There is nothing to experience, there is no content, you are feed the same mobs, leaves, environments till 50 with a side dish of terrible UI and a wrist slitting camera controls.
