Forums - Gaming Discussion - Your favourite game with a Meta below 75, and why

Apparently Furi has a 74 rating. Reviewers must have been not concentrating that day. Reason, it's awesome.

I can't go deeper into the database however, most my favourite games are PS1 games and don't have a meta score. Devil Dice for example.



Hmm, pie.

Around the Network

Driveclub and Killzone both rocked. The solus project is one of my favorites on PSVR and only scored 65.



Sea of Thieves for sure. Yes it has its shortcomings and is still lacking content but it's still an unique, fun game I've spent hundreds of hours playing.



Arcania was like a guilty pleasure to me, the Metacritic scores are 41 to 63 depending on platform, ouch.

Deus Ex (2000) - a game that pushes the boundaries of what the video game medium is capable of to a degree unmatched to this very day.

GOD HAND one of my favorite beat em ups of all time. ign gave it a 3



Around the Network

Sonic Lost World. So much fun. So underrated.

Conception 2

Arkham Origins

I can't pick a favourite. I'm sure a lot of games I love have scored low with critics. That's why I don't really listen to them. Similar with movies. It's very rare that my love for some form of entertainment aligns with the views of critics.

It's so odd. The only game below 75 that I've bought in the pat 8+ years as far as I can tell is FFXV: Pocket Edition.

Mario Tennis Aces does come very close, that'd be a fine answer if was a point lower.



fire emblem warriors.
they added some fe features that fit so well with warriors. I couldn't go back to hyrule warriors anymore because I miss these features so bad.



Mass Effect Andromeda. Hands down the best gameplay in the series and I LOVED the idea of going to a new place and fighting for a new home. Archon was a better antagonist than Saren imo

Gotta be Fatal Frame 5 for me. I can see why it got low scores; it does have a lot of repeated areas and enemies, and it controls more like a PS2-era survival horror game than the more fluid movement players expect from modern games. Still, I absolutely adored it for its strong atmosphere, engrossing lore, and genuine scariness. 

Honourable mentions go to Pandora's Tower, Epic Mickey, and Excite Truck.
