Are you being serious? "Pre-Review?" What Pre-Review?
Write a review that points out the game is a broken, unfinished piece of shit, give it one or two stars, and tell people what to expect when they're buying a new product near launch without giving the developers a slobbery bone by saying that it'll be finished later. The servers don't work, factor it into the score.
You guys had the balls to do it with XCOM 2 why not this one?
I'm the last one to defend this sodden, personality-less, zero atmosphere, turd of a game (that somehow still manages to play worse and have less depth than Jagged Alliance 2) which is also a completely broken piece of shit that is getting stellar reviews, reminding me of the completely broken dogshit Empire: Total War which got the same exact treatment (and is now remembered as a savage piece of garbage), but really?
You had to put it on easy? Then played it like, once?
Were you even trying? If it weren't pointing out the actual technical flaws of the game, I'd call this review worse than worthless since you don't even manage to play the game properly and thus wrote a completely misleading review. The game isn't even that god damn hard.
Also the whole reviews sounds like you're just trying to rationalize that score from the start.
The game is ugly, it barely looks better than Skyrim and this is supposed to be their first current gen title, the RPG elements have been stripped down to the point that leveling isn't even exciting. The bugs are astoundingly bad even beyond Bethesda standards, the story is beyond awful and is likely one of their worst which is saying something for Bethesda. The quests are dull, the world design is poor (there isn't even a fraction of care taken to things like item placement as there was in FO3 or NV), the map feels incredibly cluttered and crowded and chaotic, the voice acting is uniformly bad (nothing new), the combat is still clunky, the animations still piss poor, the balancing is horrendous, the itemization terrible, the weapon upgrade system feels pointless and offers very little variation or actually making weapons feel different, the new perk/leveling system is barebones and offers little to no satisfactory character development.
The dialogue system is rote and dull, stripping the game of any interesting interactions, player choice and consequence is muted and the worst of the series so far (and FO3 was already terrible with this), the sound design is horrible and sounds artifacted nearly nonstop, nearly every gun feels unsatisfying, melee combat is still the weird ethereal airy mess that it always has been, VATS still sucks and is just an excuse to try and fix the fact that Bethesda's proprietary engine is a piece of shit.
And that's the biggest problem, despite Bethesda trying to cover it up, THIS IS STILL THE SAME FUCKING GROUNDWORK THEY'VE HAD SINCE OBLIVION.
This game is a broken, shoddy, piece of garbage that was apparently only made to fill up the air and need for a sequel to the series.
