Maybe reviewers are readjusting their scales for the new gen :)


I really, really hope this is true. I am so fed up of every game getting 90%+ when they are the same and the public rate the at ~40%.

Well first of all, I don't see many games getting meta scores in the 90s.

It doesn't matter what the public thinks. Reviews are generally done by critics interested in that game or its genre.

Sometimes the public has opinions on something they don't care about or didn't even try. User reviews that we often see on metacritic are basically useless especially if its a game people want to hate.

Look at every multiplat AAA game from last gen. They all receievwed absurdly high scores yet many people disliked them eg. CoD franchise.
