| Ka-pi96 said: Disputable. I'd argue sales are a much greater indicator of something being "beloved" than metacritic scores. Not only are some of those games incredibly niche, but I'm sure there's people that think of them as absolute trash. For starters in that list there's Fez with a user score of only 6.3, sure user scores don't mean much but when there's that much of a difference between user score and critic score there's got to be questions asked about how "beloved" it actually is. |
Fez is on the PS4 side of the list, none of the Switch games show an out of touch or heavily distorted difference between the user score and the reviewer score. But you're right, the language I used is very up to debate. I should have used air quotes for "beloved" too. Notice how I did air quotes for "quality". That's because metacritic doesn't mean shit for my personal tastes. I use it as nothing more than a way to see other people's interests and the general consensus. Nothing is set in stone. But even the consensus is up for debate.
