So, Rocket League on PS4 is 85, if it was 1 score lower (84) you're telling me that you'd avoid it?

Well to be fair I play it on PC and it's 86 there, but regardless, I'd give it a 90+ personally. That said if it was 84 there is a chance I would have passed on it, but if not, I chalk it up to the fact that it's an extremely unique game of the type that there are no better alternatives for me to play. With a game like Far Cry, it's similar to a bunch of other games (including it's own entries) with better scores so I feel like playing a game under 85 in a genre/style that has many comparable, better games is a waste of time. Rocket League is pretty much the only game I can think of in the past 5 years where it's unique enough to not have alternatives, making the 85 metacritic cutoff less useful, because there's nothing better to compare it to.

Well, that destroys your argument right there, you disagree with the Metascore for that game, so that means there are probably other games that are the same for you.
