Seriously lol

 

[hannibunny2411]

Seems like everyone here’s one the EDGE, huh?

 

[Ibrahim]

Why not? Breath of the Wild got two 6's.

Fair enough. But really I don’t think Edge will give it 6 but yeah who know

TBH, my daughter was crying for like an hour straight as I convinced her to nap, so yes.

 

[HockeyBird]

Spawn Wave on his Redfall video brought up Tears of the Kingdom and he said that based on the the talk that has been going around, he said ToTK may surpass BOTW on Metacritic. It's just one Youtuber talking about what he has heard about the reception so take it however you like. But at the very least, it does seem to apply that based on the people he has heard from, they think TotK is better than BOTW it seems.

Part of me is like "yeah, ok, fine"; the other part of me is like "...what's the punchline?"

 

[Dragoncaine]

"I want you to put the word out that we back up"

 

[vtrubin]

Just called Miyamoto he said it's SHIIIIIIIT

uh overreactive fans?

 

[Lugia667]

Nintendo of America literally follows him you know...totally someone who would leak a bad score

You have to understand, I've been dealing with my post Octopath II withdrawal symptoms for 6 weeks now. It's been tough.

 

[Phendrift]

Came to see how everyone’s doing after The Great EDGE Scare

 

[HyahHaHa]

I'll be honest I've never even thought about metacritic scores and now y'all got me nervous about it lol. I have nothing to base it on I just have this feeling that it's going to score very well. I voted 97-98. Could be wrong and it wouldn't be the first time as my ex-wife would happily tell you.

 

[Maronic03]

...then the real score drops and it's a 5.

 

[Hero of Hyrule]

It doesn’t matter, stop caring about this overall. Like yea it’s a fun thing to follow but this game is guaranteed to review well. After a while arguing between 93 and 95 is splitting the hairs growing on my hair

I was just joking about getting nervous. It did get me curious though so I looked up what other Zelda games have scored. I knew there was a reason I love Ocarina so much

 

[Jencks]

if it doesn’t get a 95 I’m going to film myself crying

 

[MagicOtters]

Honestly the only reason I want this to score 97+ is to see the reactions of people on Reddit complaining about this just being Breath of the Wild DLC some more lol.

 

[SpaceGodzilla]

guess you can say he was EDGEing us

Spawn Wave is ridiculously well connected, and personally knows so many journalists, insiders, and other content creators. His track record and general pulse of gamers and critics is unparalleled. So I would really trust his opinion in this regard.

 

[Dragoncaine]

Welp, someone ran to Era and spread word of the embargo time. The user there must go by a different name than here, but it's out there.

 

[Phabh]

EDGE will give TOTK a 10 or at worst a 9. Ultrahand and Fuse in an open-world like this is quite revolutionary in itself without even considering the rest of the game.

if true, i knew TOTK would be a GOTY frontrunner, but he makes it sounds like it will blow everything released this year out of the water

 

[Leo]

I'm gonna be bold and say 98. I think it's gonna compare to BotW favorably, so most people will give it an equal or higher score.

Is it the same as what Okabe said on ERA (3 AM EST Thurs)?

 

[Catalyst]

There’s no way in hell this game gets a 98 (feel free to save this post if it does lol). With so many reviewers it only takes a few people giving the game a 9/10 to make 98 unobtainable, and you know there will be a couple 8s or 7s. Honestly 97 is unlikely as well considering Elden Ring couldn’t keep it.

Most likely range is 94-96.

 

[Skittzo]

That would be an odd time for a review embargo...

happened with RE4

 

[Awesomegames23]

When reviews drop, this site gonna be wild, get your Orville Redenbacher ready folks

 

[Lugia667]

I thought it was a different time according to sources here, it's on the pre-release discussion

 

[Phendrift]

He said something like he “could’ve sworn it was” then. I thought it was him subtilely leaking it

 

[mazi]

that whole edge scare was pretty fun to read through, lol

 

[Deleted member 2]

I was there for the EDGE scare

 

[ammonite]

This is just what jokes are like in Britain. The punchline is that we took something upsetting to an extreme and logical conclusion.

It is a different time and is in the other thread on Fami. My annoyance came because somebody cross-posted it from here to the purple forum when the OP (who had the post hidden) specifically requested not to share it anywhere outside of this forum.

 

[LukasManak22]

I have just seen probably the funniest thing all week. People scared that EDGE might have gave TotK a 6.

 

[HyahHaHa]

The Edge Scare of '23. It was the best of times, it was the worst of times... but mostly the best of times.

this is why we cant have nice things...

famitsu review scores usually get leaked on wednesdays, i wonder if we might get our first review score tomorrow.

 

[karmitt]

My English is not very good sorry. Does this mean it should have more note than BOTW or less? Hahahahahaha

It means reviewers find it to be a much better game than Breath of the Wild.

To “run circles around” is an idiom using the analogy of a race - X (TotK) is much faster than Y (BotW), so X is not only beating Y in the race, but they’re doing so while also running around them in circles.

"I want you to put the word out that we back up"

He's just covering his tracks.

Zelda had a good run. I hope Aonuma is good at serving coffee.

No.

Nintendo definitely cancelling Aonuma promotion.

Would be funny if Edge gave it a 5 now.

Lol Edge is not going to give TotK a 6. Some outlet probably will inevitably give it a low score, but it'll be Jimquisition or some random Italian blog nobody's heard of, not a big name site/magazine.

No.

Yes.

Edit: I'm an idiot. Read that as Tears of the Kingdom at first. In my defense, I'm seeing Tears of the Kingdom everywhere right now. Except playing on my switch unfortunately.
