| Veknoid_Outcast said: I wouldn't be so quick to call all outliers clickbait. These reviewers might genuinely hate a beloved game or love a hated game. If every critic agreed with every other critic it would be super boring and not very representative of the wide range of tastes among consumers. I'm sure there are fans out there who think Breath of the Wild and Uncharted 4 are poor games. Is it so unrealistic to imagine reviewers hold the same opinions? I'm not saying all are innocent -- there are certainly clickbait sites out there -- but I think we should be tolerant of minority opinions, as long as they're justified. |
This. We shouldn't automatically accuse reviewers for being dishonest just because they're outliers. Games can have elements that the majority like or at least find acceptable but that a few have enough issues with that they affect their experience with the game and thus the final verdict. And vice versa.
