I don't care about its metacritic. It has to be better than Wind Waker, the best game of all time. That's what it has to do. It has to be the best game ever created. And if it's ALBW in 3D like I think it'll be, that is exactly what will happen.

As long as I think it's good, I don't care about the scores...

But since it's a Zelda game, I would be a bit worried if its meta was below 93. :P

It's not a let down unless I don't score it highly myself. If I love it, and critics don't, then it's not a letdown.

That being said, the game needs to be as good or better than A Link Between Worlds for me to not consider it a letdown, which means cracking my top 6/7 for Zelda games.

If I love it when I play it, then it can score a 3, and I won't give a fuck. I didn't care for skyward sword all that much, but I absolutely love a link between worlds, so if it's anything at all like a link between worlds, I'll be a happy man.... if it's like ocarina, or windwaker, I'll be happy too. So really, the score isn't an issue or something I'll think about, because I know it's going g to be awesome. I didn't like skyward sword because I didn't particularly like the style, the world (in the sky), and zelda wiiu looks like it's got nothing in common with skyward turd.

Zelda just need to be Zelda and I be satisfied.

I don't place my standards of buying a game based on the collective numbers individuals, with different tastes and sometimes motives, give their opinion.

I will at times cite scores for comparisons to what I have seen or played myself, or the controversies and (or) praise surrounding the game, and with that information, I will compare my own thoughts on the game in agreement, acceptance or disapproval of the legitimacy of a review, but it will never dictate my purchase

As others rightly point out, Metacritic isn't all that important to me; particularly for a title like this one. I know I'm gonna buy it anyway and the only thing which really matters now is if I enjoy if or not.

However, to appease most fans I'd imagine something around the 92 mark and above would keep most quiet.

dungeons need to get better like they were in OT and MM

It'll be the first Zelda game I buy.

I don't care, as long as I'm satisfied.

What do I care? It's the latest main line Zelda. It will get bought if it wants to or not.
