I don’t believe the level of objectionable content is unacceptable for adults as long as we're critical about what we're playing. Again, I’ve played this game thoroughly, and I enjoyed it a lot. I’m concerned by the attitude of the review, which felt disconnected from my experience with this game specifically and with my experience with game content in general. I do not believe that the review focused sufficiently on the dystopian nature of the game and just how dark it is. By filling that entire subheading with a run-on commentary on how the reviewer felt about the combat pacing, controls and exploration, the review gives a strange impression: Does the “feel” of a game define if it’s “any good”? What happened to the content? However, over two-thirds of this review are dedicated towards technical gameplay and controls (see the section Is It Any Good?). Common Sense Media is a review group that focuses on game content, right? The review ought to focus on whether that content is positive, negative, objectionable or thought-provoking. I noticed spelling errors and confusing grammar/usage throughout. The Negatives: I'm sorry to say that the review on this page is hastily written and looks more like a first draft or a text message than a proper publication.
Does thinking about how things will end give us more purpose or sense of anything at all in the here and now?” This is an incredibly positive way to get players and readers to think about how the game connects us with the truth or disconnects us from reality. The Hyper Light Drifter review ends with a meaningful prompt: “Families can talk about why the end of the world seems to pop up so frequently in fiction. The review ends with discussion questions for kids and parents, which elevates the discussion about this game. Parents are warned with specific ratings for categories of content (such as Positive Messages, Violence, etc). The Positives: The review is structured by subheadings and categories. I believe that the main review has some upsides and some downsides. My response to the Common Sense review is based on my experience.
I’ve played about 40 hours of Hyper Light Drifter and beaten the game multiple times.
