But of course!

Every good review of the game = That's on the game's effort.

Every "bad" review = It's the reviewer's fault.


Doesn't seem like a biased way to see things one bit.

In most cases I would agree with you.But reading through the reviews this game seem like it had alot of mediocre reviews.Dont get me wrong:Its not all of them that are badly done.Some of the ones that gave a lower score were right to do so, because he didnt like the game after he had experienced it all and truly felt that the game were missing in some points.When the reviewer dedicates himself to play the game and gives it a lower score than others, thats perfectly fine.But there were some reviewers that saying that killing weak monsters took too long, or that the combat system were all automated(implying there was no strategy and the like), which simply isnt true.Those are the reviews im mad about.85 is an excellent score, but I felt that it should have scored a little higher.Will buy this day 1 regardless, but I like to see a game get the recognition when it deserves

But before saying a game "gets the recognition it deserves", shouldn't you wait until you play it to see if any of the praise and complains are indeed deserved?

I'm receiving the game tomorrow through Amazon. Those reviews don't do much to diminish my hype for the game. But only after I finally played the game will I know if any of those reviews ring true to me. I can only know if any of those points will bother me after I get first hand experience of the game and its features.

A point that's mentioned a lot is the lack of proper explanations for a lot of the game's systems. Is it really so? Or it is simply that it requires the player to be more attentive when some of that stuff is explained? Could be a bit of both... I'll know tomorrow.

I simply think it's funny for people who haven't yet played the game to call out reviewers who aren't all praise for the game.
