| binary solo said: Not sure what general point you're trying to make with this. One review has used spurious arguments and given it a lower than expected score; so it's a stupid review (that actually game the game 7/10 which in any other medium is still an objectively good score). But that review and any others like it are not the difference between this game being a mid 80's Metascore and a low to mid 90's. After 22 reviews on Meta it's sitting at 83. Are you telling us that's entirely because there are reviewers that want to hate the game? I think the "I want to not like AW so I'm going to nit pick and find things to mark it down and make inappropriate and inaccurate comparisons" reviewers are the difference between an 83 and an 86. They aren't the difference between an 83 and a 93. Heck if OXM gives the game an 8/10 you know it's not just people with a hidden agenda who think the game falls short of AAA review status. The game deserves to sell, and we know new games that Meta in the 80's can sell (Heavy Rain). The funny thing about different reviews of this game is the level of scare the reviewers give it. One reviewer says they had nightmares, another says it never got scary. Now that sounds like they were reviewing completely different games. |
My general point is that her review is not objective. That review has the lowest score on Metacritic until now, out of 22 reviews.. That says something.. And the "I want to not like AW so I'm going to nit pick and find things to mark it down and make inappropriate and inaccurate comparisons" should be the difference between 83 and 86, but in this case, it's a 7 that probably should be an 8 compared to the other reviews. And she's also inconsistent. One moment saying it has "impressive visuals" and then in the conclusion saying it has "decent visuals". And as soon as you do that as a reviewer, I'll throw your credibility out the window, because you are contradicting yourself, and if you do it in your conclusion, it's obvious you used that to drag your score down to your pleasing.
