Critical response summary
editIn this edit I removed the summary of the game's Metacritic evaluations. The summary of "positive" became "mixed and positive" in this edit, which then became mixed to positive. With the latter, we're getting into WP:SYNTH territory, as we're drawing a conclusion that is not expressly stated by any of the sources. I presume that no source called the response "mixed to positive". (Side note: While this is not a film article, "mixed to positive" is widely detested by WikiProject Film community for being an awful way to summarize critical response, and for it typically being derived through synthesis.) We aren't required by law to summarize the critical response. A perfectly rational approach might be to report the scores across the various platforms and let the reader figure it out. It is also worth noting that of the references in that section, two summarize the response as "mixed"[1](Archive)[2] and one summarizes it as generally favorable. So how it became "positive" is a bit sketchy on its own, and this guy from New Jersey seems to be responsible. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 07:50, 21 August 2016 (UTC)
Same thing here. Though it's clear that people really like to summarize stuff[3][4] this needs to be discussed. Review aggregators summarize aggregated critical response. In this article we've got three different summaries from Metacritic that we're trying to further aggregate and summarize. There's no point to this, and it's unclear what the major differences were between the various versions that would account for the disparity. One approach might be to summarize what each percentage means, ex: "The PlayStation 4 version received a score of 73/100 based on 19 reviews, indicating 'mixed or average reviews'" but to avoid mashing together the various reviews to arrive at a range summary.

editHow Much is it? Are the listed dates correct? I cannot find the game on Google Play. --MK (talk) 12:10, 20 September 2016 (UTC)

editDo you think TTG will do an episodic sequel of this story? 2A01:CB05:8206:FB00:39A2:B80:B47A:6FD6 (talk) 17:36, 1 April 2017 (UTC)
