Do you see that your reviews basically tell people not to play a game? OoT is pretty damn fun you said, but gave it a 74/100. If people followed your score, OoT would have bombed.


It's not my problem if people have become so addicted to only seeing the value in games with scores that are inflated. Just because a game gets a score in the 70's doesn't mean it's a bad game. Gamers have gotten obsessed with playing games only in the 80's or 90's because all those websites intentionally make games have that high of scores. If someone from ign viewed games the same way I do, it would still end up being in the 90's instead of the 70's just because it's better clickbait. Gamers either want to see games bomb in score or set records, they don't care about the neutral numbers. Well guess what? My job doesn't depend on how many clicks I get lol I do this for fun so I'm more realistic about my scores.
