I’d be interested in an outlet that has reviewers actually finish the game before writing their review. I get the perceived need to release a review as early as possible, but personally I’m willing to wait if it means a more accurate, thorough review (I’m more of a “patient gamer” these days anyway).

Inviting guest reviewers could also be a good idea I think. Always good to get different perspectives and voices.

As for mediums, I prefer video for reviews as it allows for demonstrations of different aspects of the game. This is especially helpful when talking about a game’s performance and artistic direction.

In no particular order:

Final Fantasy XIV and XVI (Soken is a genius)

Transistor

Nier Automata

Genshin Impact

Destiny 2

The World Ends With You

Persona 5

Tony Hawk Pro Skater 1/2

Honestly though the FF series as a whole kinda deserves its own special mention. The games have always had stellar soundtracks.

I feel really bad for the employees. Feels like the execs set them up to fail. Hopefully they land on their feet.
