You seem obsessed with this. :P it's still a 6-7/10 type of game regardless since the majority appear to score it as such. As I said, a 6-7 is a slightly above average game. If people dont like it, they don't have to buy it and that applies to anything. 

The average metacritic score for a video game is 75, so 65 is actually below average.

I'm just going off the basis of what a number should mean. A 5 is average or so-so, a 4 is below average and so forth. A lot of hidden gems have had 6-7/10 scores. If MetaCritic says 75 is average per se, what does a 65 mean then? It can't be terrible because the score doesn't really indicate as such. If it's below average, then the gap between average and below average is too big.
