Your review is a little forced in spots, Jim

I know, right?

Does anyone bother to check the legitimacy of critics that hand out perfect scores for our favourite games? I mean.. a 10 out of 10 should be questionable, I question the 10s that Avengers: Civil War got whenever the movie is disucussed.

Do we call the first critic that gives an anticipated game a perfect score a clickbaiter? Why don't we? After all, the first reviewer to give a perfect score for a highly anticipated game will surly get some clicks. But nope, who cares, it's a 10 for my favourite game, it won't irk me if I go to sleep knowing that he or she did it for clicks.

Get the fuck over it guys, a 7/10 is a great score.

For the record, I don't recall ever complaining about Jim giving the game a 7/10. If Jim feels the game deserves a 7/10, I stand behind him 100%. However, if in the meat of his review he's going to complain about a cutscene "disrespecting" player's time, I'm going to point out that Jim makes no mention that most cutscenes can be skipped.

 

I don't disagree with the point you are making. However, you'd be surprised by the amount of reviews that are filled with inaccuracies and factually wrong statements, be it positive or negative, it's just no one bothers to nitpick. Some FF fans were very upset by the Guardian's review, they supposedly gave FF15 a bad score for some BS reason, and fans nitpicked that one paragraph they didn't like, forgetting that The Guardian's review just balances out one of the undeserved perfect scores it got when it's obviously a flawed and imperfect game. 

 In the end, you have the clickbaiters and the generous reviews cancelling each other out, so chill out
