Yep. This is why I use Opencritic. I can use my own personal settings to "ban" clickbait sites like Slant, and Metro. 

Slant Magazine's scores are ridiculous. These are some crazy scores I found only looking through the first page:

Far Cry 5
Slant's Score: 50
Metascore: 81

Sea of Thieves
Slant's Score: 40
Metascore: 70

Ni No Kuni II
Slant's Score: 50
Metascore: 86

Yakuza 6: The Song of Life
Slant's Score: 60
Metascore: 83

Kingdom Come: Deliverance
Slant's Score: 20
Metascore: 76

Radiant Historia: Perfect Chronology
Slant's Score: 60
Metascore: 84

Monster Hunter World
Slant's Score: 70
Metascore: 90

All of this was only on the front page of their game reviews. On OpenCritic, they usually score 10.71 points below the average. It doesn't take a genius to see that they don't score based on game quality but on how many clicks they can gather.

This isn't bad. Sites aren't required to give games 9s or 10s automatically. This is the problem now.
