Regardless of the reasoning behind; this seems downright strange. I honestly can't believe it deserves such a mediocre score.

They also gave Link Between Worlds Game of the Year, though, right? I would call that solidly overrated (a very solid game, hits all the checkmarks, but does nothing exceptional).

They're just weird.


It seems like a few sites have reviewers with very different individual outlooks on certain genres and games, this lends the image of a site that is in itself erratic and out of touch. I can't say which is which; but I really do find a 5/10 for this game terribly strange, I've played all the mainline DK games till now and never walked away with any sort of mediocre impression and I just can't fathom that Retro could have dropped the ball like this.

This will probably be one of those games with a huge high-low difference in scores, but I'm certain that it's a really good game, for my part.
