The Meta scores as we all know, at least those of us who aren't selectively using data to support our claims, skew high for lower budget indie titles, and generally tend to rake any major release (hyped and highly marketed), big budget title that isn't so good that only click bait reviewers nitpick to justify a non-concensus low score over the coals.
It's odd how development and marketing costs alter perception of the quality of a given product. Call it a sense of fair play as well as a consumer cost to entertainment value perception.
I don't personally think it's up to debate that there are in effect, two separate grading scales for low budget and big budget titles.
