I actually don't know why it's getting so many perfect reviews and has 97 meta it's so similar to Super Mario Galaxy i guess it's just default at this point for a 3d Mario game to have high score .. sigh.

Breath of the Wild on the other hand i completely understood it's amazing (though maybe not 97 meta amazing but still) it was awesome.. SMO on the other hand i completely don't get.

Thanks for proving me right.

 

EDIT: To clarify, the idea of Mario Odyssey getting anything but an 8+ would result in digital rioting is what I'm referring to.

I know it's an opinion, but if critics are supposed to objectively rate a game, then I find it hard to view Odyssey as anything less than an 8.

 

Horizon Zero Dawn was excellent, and yet it got a 50 from a critic. Have your opinion, but what cons from the game turn it into a completely average game?

They're not .... they absolutely are there just to give their opinion

Much ado about nothing.

And weren't there rules against clickbait titles and fake news?

I think it's fine as long as it's a playful jest that Jim started. I at least hope enough people in this thread know i was joking

I cant tell if you are being serious or not, but I really think thats the case. A lot of people want objectivity but a lot of trusted reviewers are people that just speak their mind. I dont think most critics would dare give a big title a bad score if they work at a big publication...which is actually sad as it is self censorship based on backlash

 

Wow, I really sound like a broken record on this subject! I suck!

I'm completely serious. I would give Overwatch a 3/10 for how much I disliked it, but that's only because I simply dislike shooter games with a passion. It's still well built, keeps up an enjoyable pace, and has very smooth gameplay. My rating for Overwatch would be around 8.2/10 since it honestly isn't a 3/10 at all. 

 

Typically however my enjoyment with a game matches my rating. Overwatch is a large outlier.
