Zekkyou said: People like to know if what they're buying is worth the money. Reviews have always followed the 'context + quality vs price' formula. You don't have to personally like it, but the majority seem happy enough with this system (and seeing as we're discussing generalized scores, the majority are the most relevant). Knowing if something is worth the entry price is just as important to me as knowing if it's actually any good. |
Price isnt stable, score is.
Special for pc games, most games will easily drop to 5-10$ in just 1-2 years.
So if i want to get any old game (lets say Assassins creed III) and ill check metacritic, AC III will have a score of 80 but OlliOlli of 82. So ill think that OlliOlli is the superior game. Both will cost the same.
Thats why price shouldnt be considered, but ok i dont care about this metascore at all, so lets finish this ;)
