As Palworld rises, The Last of Us Remastered Part 2 is bombarded with negative reviews on Metacritic

Palworld is the Xbox and PC exclusive that has been a huge and historic success, being one of the most played games on Steam of all time! On the other hand, Sony released a game that seemed to have been overshadowed by “Pokémon with Guns.”

The Last of Us Part 2 Remastered was Bombarded with negative reviews on Metacritic by some users, bringing the game's average score to nearly 6.5 and then rising to its current 7.6 thanks to a series of 10 “stabilisers”.

Of course, this is nothing new, review bombing is still a widespread practice and Metacritic has only been able to partially curb it by placing limits on the release date of games.

However, it is interesting to scrutinize the reasons for the various “zeros” attributed to the remaster signed by Naughty Dog, linked in many cases to the few differences with the original version of The Last of Us Part 2 and, therefore, to the purely commercial part. The nature of this process.

The biggest criticism is the need to remake such a modern game, which may be purely for profit purposes for Sony.
