The connotation of "almost green" is that the score is not that low, or quite justifiable. In this context you abscribe the attribute of "be so low" to a 7/10 score, which implies that it is a bad score for an otherwise universally acclaimed game. Furthermore, you have a post history of painting scores in the 70's as pretty good (see your posts in the Mass Effect: Andromeda thread.) It comes off as hipocracy that all of a sudden a 7/10 is "so low" because it is a game you enjoyed (not saying I disagree; Diablo was a groundbreaking game and doesn't deserve a 7/10.)

None of the bolded affected this point, it was only a matter of degree rather than type of reaction, so that is why it is irrelevant. 

You can think that 7 is a pretty good score for some games, and an unacceptable score for other games. Context, opinions, stuff like that...

This is a strawman. It was not stated that different games can't have different unacceptable scores (in fact the opposite is implied.) Read what I said again. 

"which implies that it is a bad score for an otherwise universally acclaimed game. "

and look what he said 

"Diablo was game changing on top of being an amazing game"

Likewise EDGE has its "opinions, stuff like that." One can't use "it's his [or my] opinion, bruh" as deflection while also criticizing another's opinion as "too low". You can recognize that opinions are subjective without falling into a slippery slope of total relativism.  The subjectivity of opinions does not make all opinions equal.
