    Yeah but every NBA game gets flooded with negative reviews and these people will buy it again next year. It doesn’t matter how many negative reviews it has if it sells well.

    I always have a laugh when half of these reviews are “wow guys this poorly rated game that everyone told me is garbage turned out to be garbage. They’re making the same game every year!”, fast forward to them posting the same review next year.

      I got Madden 22 for free and for awhile I was enjoying it. It was my first Madden game since the 360. So I start going to forums for the game, and every single post was about how bad the game is, highlighting ridiculous bugs, shitty AI, missing features.

      Then details about Madden 23 started to come out and everyone that was tearing 22 apart was absolutely in love with every little thing that was shown.

      I stopped reading those forums. It was surreal.

        Civilization series is notorious for that too. Civ -1 is always the best of the series and current Civ is the worst.

          At least civ tries new things. But yeah the constant release of a new game with less features is pretty common.

        Man I remember being on the Gamefaqs forums back in like 2005 or so, and people were complaining about this exact scenario back then. Some things never change

      I know someone who routinely preorders games and constantly gets disappointed and never fails to preorder again.

      Triple A games most of the time. You can probably guess which franchises.
