When I watch a review I expect an unbiased opinion. |
Ain't no such thing.
There are no objective game reviews. Nobody on the planet can objectively review a game, it's just not possible. Our tastes and preferences color our opinions and directly affect our enjoyment of a game. What one person likes, another hates, even if their opinions are usually in agreement.
There is absolutely nothing wrong with pointing out a game's flaws, whether or not you believe they are flaws. Many people believe a flaw of "Skyrim" is the combat, I do not see it as a flaw. Many believe FFXII has a great story, but I don't like it. What does or does not make a good game is entirely up to the person playing it. And sometimes that person is a reviewer. And what we get is their opinion, their inescapably biased opinion.
But in the male-dominated sub-culture of gaming, it would appear that feminine-biased opinons are utterly unacceptable. I find that to be unacceptable. It's fine to disagree, but this outcry is ridiculous and appalling.
