Rules:
- 1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
- 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

Yes, blind optimism is the way to go here. /s
I am sorry but if any gaming journalist is not the least amount of sceptical about ANY release today, then they either don't play games or are sleeping under a rock.
Without a doubt, Hello Games pulled NMS around and made it into a great title but this took years and we also have seen this blind optimism before with Cyberpunk 2077. Even a "wiser" Game studio can fail and not deliver.
Too many titles over the last years were lukewarm even highly anticipated and hyped titles either were "meh" or failed at release. The number of games that redeemed themselves is only a few and can be probably counted on one hand. A gaming Journalist should know about this!
So, I am not even sorry if I am not hyped about it. It does sound interesting but "I believe it when I see it". There is too much time that has to go down the road for this to come out and there are a lot of things that can/will go wrong in that time.
I rather wait on the reviews.
