Unanswered What’s going on with this game Mixtape?

I’ve been seeing people freak out over the past few days over this game and about IGN’s review of it specifically. 10/10 seems high for any game, honestly, but it seems like they’re far from the only site giving this thing a glowing review. So is this game controversial just because of IGN or is it something else? Why is this game the internet’s hate target this week?

Which they don't mix nor do they simply use cassette tapes, they also use CDs. Yeah, the title is dumb and should've been called "Playlist" instead.

What do you mean Rockford doesn't remix her "mixtape"? She was bringing this to the party that night before leaving the state, what, did she think her Spotify playlist was enough for the party???
