End of Metacritic is nigh? That would obliterate review score prediction and tracking threads.

Good thing?

Yes, very good. Reviews can return to what they used to be - about the game and not about a number.

That's exactly the response I was looking for. Scores, while having a genuine purpose, do too much to reward those who often say "TL;DR". I don't think I would mind if the gaming side of the internet grew up a little.
