Be fair. If a game doesn't grab you by the end of act 1 it is fair enough to trade it in and get something else. It took me a little while to warm into DA I but certainly a hello lot less time than the whole of Act 1.

Fantastic to see this win THE GOTY, if it can be called that. But I don't see it winning most of the reviewer GOTYs will be interesting to see how thing shake out.

It will. Dragon Age got really high ratings across the board with a few idiots giving it disgusting scores, thus lowering the meta. I'm sure it's gonna get the larger GOTY awards as well.

Meta should implement a robust reputation system for voters, because as it actually is I prefer  to rely on word-of-mouth, gameplay videos and a few reviewers I know I can trust, and, very often, waiting some time to see if a game is a fad or it 's becoming a classic, to decide if a game is worth my money.
Obviously reviews and word-of-mouth alone aren't definitive, but I read the reasons why a game was given a high or low scores and that can tell me if it's a game for me (it can happen that I like a thing that the reviewer hates, but reliable reviewers will cite them, so they can help also people that don't share their tastes).
