Gaming - Review Inflation - View Post

Actually, I think the main problem with reviews is the people reading them.

I think the people who read reviews take them so freakin' literally that they can't just say "this game is good, this game is bad." They have to over-complicate and over-analyze it, and then just bitch when the scale seems odd to them. And additionally, people don't read reviews for the content or for a differing opinion. Most people read reviews just so that they can agree with them or feel good about their favorite game.

The reviewers need work, but so do the readers. A lot.
