    Ace Combat and Kojima games do get criticism for their plots, though.

    If you include a narrative, it’s fair game.

    Would y’all be lenient on mediocre mechanics of a “cinematic, narrative” game if it had a great story because “you know what you’re getting into”? From my experience, most of a certain type of gamer wouldn’t be.

    85 average and 8/10 scores are hardly big knocks, either.

      Of course you can, but I prefer judging a game on what it focuses on. Kind of like judging undertale on its graphics, it’s not the main point. AC is all about the combat and customization, and anything that gets in the way of that is what I would judge harshly.
