Yeah, Gameblog (french website) gave it a 40, because "it's boring" and "slow because you can't run". But it's one of the worst kind of clickbait sites I've ever seen, so nothing unusual. 

There will always be a few clickbait reviews. It's just the nature of the internet and generating traffic.

Nah, this site is nothing but clickbait, it's like a people magazine about video games. They can take an interview made by another site and cut it in 10 different news in 10 days, always frontpage, with 10 different quotes (and nothing else in the news). Or make a review with the title "The PS4 completely fails" about an Xbox One and PS4 multiplatform game. And their main "line" of news is "Xbox France said something to Playstation France on Twitter today", and vice versa, really frequently and in frontpage, of course. 

 

Right now, you have on the frontpage things like "The 2 games that Tetsuya Nomura is waiting for are not Japanese games", and "Teens hack a mall to buy videogames". I'm an occasional user of their site, but even their userbase complain everyday about their clickbait politics, useless articles and lack of journalistic material. So don't care too much about their reviews ;)
