It’s a very common tradition: when a game is released, gamers will read the reviews to know if the game is good or not. Nobody really understands the logic behind the abstract scores. What is a 67? Who knows! But a 67 is better than 66 then people says game X is better than Y so my console is better than yours.
I’m tired of this tradition because people can’t think by themselves anymore and have a personal opinion. All that matters is the metascore, the sales, the resolution. Numbers. Games are NOT a physics class, they are entertainment. We can stop depending on “professional opinions” because there are no pros when it comes to games: they are all just opinions.
So I propose that the next time you are in doubt if a game deserves be bought: download the demo, watch the gameplay on Youtube or even if you are going to ask someone or read a review, don’t bet your life on it, maybe you are discarding a very nice experience.
