@Lee Vilenski: Hello, Lee. As a learning experience, I've decided to take this on as my very first Good Article review, so apologies for any out-of-place elements.

Unfortunately, having looked over the article, I'm afraid I have to fail this one as it stands, as there's clearly still much work to be done before the article can seriously be considered for GA. Here are the points that stick out most to me:

  • The lead section is too short to adequately summarize all the significant points that the article's body might have. The lack of a statement on critical reception sticks out most of all.
  • The Teams sub-section contains a glut of specific descriptions that aren't directly supported by reliable sources, and seem more like original research than anything.
  • The absence of a section detailing the game's development and release information is especially glaring, as that is a necessity if an article is to be broad enough in its coverage for GA status. Look into any pre-release publications, print or web-based, for such details.
  • The Reception section leaves much to be desired, consisting of only two short paragraphs compared to the considerable number of reviews at hand. Ideally, this section should consist of paragraphs summarizing the gameplay, visuals, and audio in that order, and other paragraphs or sections detailing more specific aspects should also be considered.

Hopefully you'll find the time to address these matters and get the article up to a more presentable state if you ever go for a renomination. Best wishes. Cat's Tuxedo (talk) 22:37, 10 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
