3 points doesn't take a game from good to bad. The Taken King for positive reviews because it changed a lot of the way how Destiny works. Dark Arisen got better reviews because of the improved load times, framerates, and content that could keep you playing long after you got the Platinum. 

No one said that every indie was great. There's one good one for every three, and if you've gone through more than three without hitting a good one, then you're skipping the good ones somewhere or just have different taste. 

Lets just move on from Dragon's Dogma. You can like the game in spite of it being totally rad. The version most critics played was the 360 version and it got a 75 by the way.

Nope, less than 1 of 3 of these indie games are actually notable. Sony knows a lot of this stuff is bleh. Franky, it would be nice if Sony gave away PS2 games. Even 1st party stuff would be fine.

Fix'd. And I play PS3, so I run by PS3 ratings. And Dark Arisen is the version that was given away, too, so should we not judge it by that?

35 good-to-fantastic games out of the currently 71 PS4 titles that have been made available. Of that 71, I excluded games from established high-profile/once-high-profile series such as Lara Croft and Strider. 10 non-indie titles were removed based on this, meaning 34 of 61 games that if not you, others enjoyed. I've even gone ahead and emboldened the ones that I personally enjoyed. I bet you can't guess which one I liked the most. (Hint: It's totally Rogue Legacy)
