Breath of the Wild, perfect scores, and framerate

I'm sure there are more issues than that for some to consider BotW less than perfect, but hey, I suppose these issues weren't enough to drop down scores for some reviews, including framerate issues. Having played a lot of Zelda, I had maybe one minor hiccup? Perhaps some of the higher scores rarely encountered them as well.

They likely shrugged them off.

Yeah, probably for some, it didn't occur enough to warrent dropping the score.

Ya i just beat BOTW over the weekend and have close to 50 hours put into the game and only noticed the framerate drop like 2-3 times. Such a minor issue probably isn't going to affect review scores too much, however if the drops were frequent and affected the enjoyment of the game than it would likely have brought the score down for many reviewers.

That is likely what did happen. I listened to a review discussion of 3 people on a video, and while there was one person who docked a point because of the frame rate issues, another person said they didn't encounter any drops at all.
