How do you guys feel about someone in that position calling out reviewers publicly for trashing a game? Further to that, should they be allowed to outright tell people not to purchase it? Is that not a part of their job? And please dont use this to go after Shannon on social media, further personal attacks arent any kind of solution. Im more interested in discussing if theres precedence for this type of situation and what the fact its happening means for the realtionship between journalists and game companies.

Uh, tough shame sunshine. You make a bad game, it's your fault not the reviewer's

The fact that this is over a game like Super Lucky Tale is funny to me. This isn't their big games like Halo, Forza, Gears, Sea of Thieves, or Minecraft, but Super Luckys Tale..

"We're very proud of how the game ended up. And I think seven, eight, nine, like anywhere in there is fine. Three or four… I mean somebody gave Forza Horizon 3 a four.
