Well, that's the case with all (entertainment) rating systems. For example I disagree with some scores by IMDb, Steam or even by the well-known critics site Roger Ebert (e.g. From Up on Poppy Hill (2011), it should be way more than a mere 2.5/4).
But these ratings give some view on entertainment industry products. For example one can be sure that movies with an IMDb score of less than 5 are of very low quality.
Not a single one of us agrees with completely all MAL scores, but MAL is a good starting point to know more about an anime with a lot of details.
PS Reading some negative comments is a very good way to determine if they're right or just baseless.
Yes, BUT, the Malwarebytes scanner on VorisTotal is obviously completely different and not that good as Malwarebytes 3.5.1 for windows. I have scanned the DOA5 exe with VirusTotal and there Malwarebytes did not find a virus, while Malwarebytes 3.5.1 on windows detected it as a "Trojan.Shutdown.UPX".
Thanls for the info. This was the only SKIDROW release I had. I usually always get CODEX, 3DM, CPY. I scan everything with Malwarebytes and it never found anything suspicious in CODEX, CPY, 3DM.
"...should buy the original software/games ;)" - Same goes for anime. Why not buy the originals on BD with ALL the merch before you watch, and, especially of you like it? Just like games, anime has trailers too, so it's no exception.
Be aware that not all "DARKSiDERS intros" are the same. Files aren't the same just when they have the same name. They should have exactly the same hashes to be identical.
You're using a SKIDROW release and expecting a malware-free (though harmless) experience?! 0.0 Usually the only problematic part of such releases is their steam_api.dll which is identified as malware by some security products. Any release with any file identified as malware other than those steam_api.dlls can be harmful to the system and should be avoided completely. Well, that's why you shouldn't download files from just any source and should buy the original software/games ;)
That's right. I just checked several episodes and the ClickNUpload links (which sit first in the Download lists) have .link domain. Please update the uploader bot and links, admin ;) For now, anyone can simply change the domain from .link to .org and download from ClickNUpload like before :)
Can we have the links to the Clicknupload change to the .org (if that's how it works)? I get ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS when clicking the Clicknupload links from the releases.
*edit: freaking hell it was the game! Dead or Alive 5 Last Round from SKIDROW has a god damn trojan in the exe! I double checked on my backup of the game and it was there! Earlier this month when Malwarebytes did not see it when I installed the game, was probably because I still had version 3.3.1 at that time. I upgraded to 3.5.1 a while ago, so that's why it detected it now...
So I ran the DARKSiDERS "intro" and after that Malwarebytes turned up 3 "Trojan.Shutdown.UPX" in a game exe and two desktop shortcuts. What the hell? Those items were not infected an hour ago. Coud it be that the DARKSiDERS intro has infected them? How the hell did they hide a Trojan in the exe that even Malwarebytes and VorisTotal do not see it?
Fortunately ClicknUpload is still up and running. It's not lost. The fact is such sites simply change their domain from one to another. I remember it being ClicknUpload.com, then ClicknUpload.net, then ClicknUpload.me, then ClicknUpload.link etc. and now it's ClicknUpload.org.
Thanks for the advice. Unfortunately I could not install Sandboxie because the setup threatened to "Lock Up" my PC. Here is the file I wanted to test. I have scanned it with Malwarebytes and found no virus. Can I trust that result? https://mega.nz/#F!PLpzCCIJ!s-hUdIezvozi8vbOdD1L8g
I always found MAL reviews to be kind of hostile towards (niche)anime shows that are usually highly rated and loved in Japan. (And so it seems to be the case with (niche) JRPG games on steam - bad reviews about games people dont understand and complaints about prices are simply sad.)
