The fact that people complain that an 8.2 is too low is really ridiculous, especially when they haven't even played the game. I prefer movie critics over game critics, at least they don't get impressed by everything. I've watched movies I liked that scored 60% and I've played many games I hated that scored over 90% on metacritic (like Rayman Legends or Bayonetta 2).
I think Pokémon Sun and Moon for example is much superior to Pokémon X/Y, but it scored one point lower than it. See for yourself, go back to X/Y after having played Sun and Moon, it's a massive difference for the worst.
