Gamerankings is the other aggregate reviewer if you don't like Metacritic. Their current score for Until Dawn is 79.94%.

But seriously, your enjoyment of a game shouldn't be contingent on a single point. When using Metacritic, I personally to group certain scores together to judge the quality of a game (so, I personally think games that score between 77-82, 83-86, 87-90, and 91+ tend to be indistinguishable in quality, and how much I would enjoy that particular game comes down to personal preference.)

I liked Splatoon, Yoshi's Woolly World and DKC: TF a lot more than Bayonetta 2 and Rayman Legends.

I expect so did some reviewers. That doesn't say much as to whether their metascore's are accurate or not though, at least within a reasonable range. Stand alone opinions don't mean much to a generalized view point after all.

I expect that the vast majority of gamers liked those games better than Bayonetta 2 and Rayman Legends.

10-15 points difference isn't reasonable at all. Even Disney Infinity 3.0 scored better than those 3 games despite most content being locked behind expensive plastic toys (and the game being super bland and generic). I guess Disney pays more for ads.
