MODERATORS
Remember when the reviewers said Cyberpunk 2077 was the greatest game of all time too?
This guy unabashedly loved the base game when it came out. So yeah, I don't really trust his opinion, but it's not inconsistent for him to praise new content for a beloved game.
That's my thing with RPS. They have extreme opinions and while I do disagree with their statements, they're always entertaining and I always go, "I see your perspective".
I like it!
They're also the very few game sites that give attention to indie games, or write creative pieces about specific elements in games. The author Sin Vega does great long form articles about interesting game mechanics.
Sin Vega writes great pieces, the Alices too!
