I think some of you guys ARE being a tad out of line. This is an instance where, yes there's some stuff that I don't agree with in there, selnor hasn't intended any backlash. Some of you are just using the opportunity to bash and thrash him, and it's not justified right now. |
I agree 100%, if you don't like the guys opinion just don't enter his threads.

If you don't want people to give their opinion of a review then stop creating threads about game reviews. Why write a review if you are afraid of what people will say about your review? A review for someone who I already knew would give the game a 10/10 doesn't have much value to me. I see nothing wrong pointing this out. This is reason why I don't put much faith in gamers review like at Amazon as you get too many 5/5 amd 1/5 scores.

See the posts above, very few of you criticizing him are doing so for the content of the review, just the score and who he is.
|
A review is for those who haven't bought the game yet or am I missing something. If a reviewer has a strong bias then that effects how helpful and creditable a review is. It's nothing personal it just a pattern found in Selnor's reviews. Some have help the review to be more creditable (more down to earth) like Reasonable post.
|
A review is a personal opinion, its impossible to be truly subjective for any review even if thats your goal. There are other people that will share Selnors traits as a gamer who will find his review useful. Do you seriously know anyone who takes one user review as gospel to buy in the internet review era? The more reviews the better, everyone is different so as many opinions as possible is always better than fewer "generic unoffensive" reviews.
