Nogamez said: why does everyone here hate metacritic? i mean if a load off critics give a game a 6 its props not that good. If a load off critics give a game 10 its probably good. If no mans sky has a low critic score its probably because its average. Look at Zelda games all of them score highly and all are masterpeices. Same with gta. |
People hate metacritic because it caters to the crowd that looks at scores rather than read reviews, which is exaserbated here due to how different critics use the numbers (many treat a 7/10 as average, others a 5/10). Also, considering how suspect many bigger review outlets can be (either fluffing up scores to maintain ad revenue or staying within the bounds of a narrative established by the parent media company), it's hard taking metacritic seriously at all. I'm curious how many people here are playing the game as opposed to just talking about it based on other peoples' discussions. I myself won't be home to play it until Monday.
