Zucas said: Haha of course not. I wish so called "professional" reviewers would change scores if they thought something was done improperly. The most important thing about a review is to inform the consumer about the product as accurately as possible. If that's not being done then it needs to be fixed to make sure the right message is being sent out. I really do think that people who think others lose credibility because they are willing to admit they are wrong need a reality check. Those who are willing to admit they are wrong and didn't get it right the first time and willing to change for the sake of being more accurate are people who should be held to the highest respect. Maybe if politicians in my country could do something like that we'd live in a better world. Maybe if people in general could do it haha. |
That makes no sense. Adjusting scores isn't the same as admitting you're wrong. We have editing for that. Reviews cannot possibly please everyone who reads them, so they just need to be accurate and well-justified. If there is inaccurate information in a review I will absolutely make sure that it's corrected, but it matching your opinion does not make it right or wrong. What makes it right or wrong is if it's well-justified for the score it does give the game, complete, and accurate.
But, if anything by telling people they are "wrong" anytime you don't agree with their score of a game you are showing your own arrogance, not theirs.
