Rage 2 officially released on May 14 and sees players take control of Walker, a ranger who is trying to survive in a post-apocalyptic world inhabited by dangerous mutants, after a massive asteroid crashed into the planet. The game has received mixed reviews from critics, and shroud seems to agree with their assessment \u2013 using Game of Thrones Season 8, which has also divided opinion, to review the game. Shroud compares Rage 2 to Game of Thrones While playing Rage 2 on his May 14 stream, shroud was asked by a viewer if watching streams of the game would reveal spoilers that could ruin the experience, giving the former CS:GO pro a chance to respond while taking a subtle dig at Game of Thrones Season 8. \u201c\u2018Is Rage the kind of game with spoilers?\u2019\u201d laughed shroud. \u201cNo. Not at all. There\u2019s nothing you could spoil in that game. Let\u2019s put it this way, this game\u2019s story and writing was made by the people who created Game of Thrones Season 8, so you\u2019re going to be alright.\u201d Shroud later confirmed that he hasn\u2019t actually watched any of Game of Thrones Season 8, but heard about the massive discontent among fans of the show, as it heads towards the series finale following the worst reviewed, and arguably most controversial, episode in the show\u2019s history. The Canadian said: \u201cI know what everyone tells me. I thought it was just online, but I\u2019m hearing conversations and [people] are so disappointed. What the fuck did they do to make it so bad?\u201d This isn\u2019t the first time shroud has called out Game of Thrones, though, previously advising people who hadn\u2019t watch the show to skip the first six seasons and jump in at the seventh. Shroud reviews Rage 2 After playing the game for a number of hours during his May 14 stream, shroud gave his viewers his honest opinion on Rage 2, stating that while it wasn\u2019t awful, it may not be worth the money you would pay to own it. \u201cI\u2019m all Raged out,\u201d shroud told his audience while shutting the game down. \u201cIt\u2019s not a bad game, it just depends on what you\u2019re looking for. \u201cFive-and-a-half [stars]. That\u2019s what I\u2019d say. It\u2019s not bad, it\u2019s just not really worth your $60, especially if you\u2019re considering it and you\u2019re not sure, I wouldn\u2019t. I would either hold on to it, or spend $30 on a different game and get [Rage 2] later when it\u2019s on sale.\u201d The former CS:GO pro may not be a big fan of either franchise, but he has dropped 10 hours into Rage 2, and it\u2019s very likely that he will keep playing it as he attempts to finish the game.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Shroud reviews Rage 2, explains why it\u2019s basically Game of Thrones Season 8 Bethesda \/ HBO \/ HyperXPopular Twitch streamer Michael \u2018shroud\u2019 Grzesiek has used Game of Thrones\u2019 controversial Season 8 to review new first-person shooter Rage 2.
