Yes, to a certain degree. I've enjoyed a lot of games on the 70s or even 60s and I think reviewers are being completely crazy nowadays, but somethings are indicators:
- Less than 60: I will think that the games is either broken or has terrible mechanics. Will check gameplay videos on YouTube and read the full reviews to confirm if it's really that bad.
- 70s: if I want the game, I will buy it. But I will give a look at the reviews.
- High 80s, 90s: if the game wasn't on my radar, I will give a look at some videos and see if I like it.
So basically, very low metas will make me check more if the games isn't broken/terrible before buying. If it's just underwhelming, it may even make me delay buying it or not buying it. Very high metas can put a game on my radar and make me buy it. Either way, I'll check gameplay videos first before making the decision because sometimes reviewers will just get in the hype and give 10s or will be unfair and give bad reviews to a decent/good game.
