Analyst receives death threats for rating God of War Ragnarok a 6

The first reviews of God of War Ragnarok were published last Thursday (03), marking a great debut on Metacritic — where it currently has an average of 94 points.

However, not everything is cause for joy: a South Korean analyst received a death threat after giving the sequel a six.

Bae Sang Hyun reported the incident in an extensive Twitter thread. The attacker's message begins by saying that he is a "low-level, low-skilled Korean writer", in addition to other name-calling, threats of physical aggression and even death.

And please don't do this. It's so heartbreaking. I can't do anything else. I ask you politely, please, just enjoy your game. pic.twitter.com/zsjECeCscj
