The game is releasing in 4 days and we haven’t seen much gameplay footage and many are still wondering what this game is. Doesn’t sound good.

Looking at the Eurogamer comments allegedly there may be some fraud stories involved with this. Which is why the CFO and legal left

Maybe I’m a simp for IOI, but the CEO’s allegations that the game might be getting paid-off negative press makes me curious. There have definitely been games in history that I’ve seen overwhelming negative reactions to from the internet, I tried them out and…they’re actually really fun. Sometimes it just feels simpler to join the bandwagon without trying a game out, not knowing a good 60% of that bandwagon might be paid trolls. I’ve always hated vague statements like “The game was released unfinished” or shit regarding paid extra content.

Anyway, all that is just my opinion that I’m going to wait and see, at the very least.

I remember getting ads for this months ago on social media. I was like, “Why is the guy from Mafia 3 in this?” Fast forward to now, and my understanding is that the game is simply a series of scripted sequences (“missions”) made in a Fortnite/Roblox-like platform called “Everything”.

It sounds like the game is just that, with FMV’s?
