I would hate to see you wrong...

B2S was reviewed by Brad L., HR by Matt S. and Detroit by Tyler T. so none were reviewed by the same reviewer, just on the same publication. And if they were all reviewed by the same person then the score would make even less sense since you would have a hard time to say on one hand that B2S and HR are 100 but Detroit is 40.

They gave 100 for No Man Sky, to Toren, Azures Night, Yonder, Pokemon Go (a lot of gameplay, graphics and history here right?), and several other very bad games...

I find it hard to see any consistency that would allow the 40 score to be objectively fair on their part.

And if you have Videogamers as standard bad as well... 007 Quantum Solace is a 90 for a 65 game... with the only other green game they gave a 40 being Fifa 14 (the iOS version), SSFII HF.

They also gave a 40 for B2S and 90 for HR, so no consistency at all since the games didn't vary as much in quality.

I do read videogamers reviews. Their 100 to No Man´s Sky was fucking dumb and they made fun of themselves on their youtube channel when they did it. I dont see why their opinion is any less valid then others. They do throw around Higher scores easier. And tell you what the B2S and HR scores is what I´d rather them aswell. Again I think Beyond two souls is a huge confusing dumb game. The reactions for that game were mixed regardless. I dont see anything to discredit their opinion obviously the guy who publishes the articles on digitallydownloaded (Matt Sainsbury) enjoys David cage´s games he wouldnt publish a review he wouldnt agree with in the slightest now would he? He also tweeted in support of the writer of the article

Im standing by what I said these arent troll reviews a troll review would be something like this guy has in the metacritic part of the review for SMO.

Though a really neat game, Super Mario Odyssey is an utterly underwhelming adventure for every long-term Super Mario fan in existence. Unless Cappy brainwashed you. In that case, you are a satisfied zombie customer now. No, seriously, only a zombie would find a healthy challenge in this pleasant but disappointingly easy Super Mario Walk-in-the-park. Sorry - Odyssey.

The score was a 75 a fine score but look at the writing of that piece the piece he picked to throw on metacritic. It screams ´Click me´ just to piss off fanboys. You need to look at the text and the context of the review before you can call it a troll review. They decide what scores they give and if they were really out to get you with Detroid they would´ve given it lower then a 4. Do understand that Im really looking forward to playing this game since its been revealed I really hope its good and Im picking it up as soon as im back from vacation but I just wanted to defend that not all bad reviews are troll reviews even websites with a shitty taste. As an example I give you Armond White https://www.rottentomatoes.com/critic/armond-white/movies?page=1 Armond White reviews are so fucking mixed. He takes offensive to alot of shit. Doesnt make his opinion any less valid, If you like the movies he likes you probably follow his recomendations (Which I dont sugest anyone with a healthy mind does).

Unless you can explain me with a straight face that giving 10 to HR, B2S and 4 for Detroit is justified because those are 2.5x better than it (and also NMS and other high scores for bad games) then no, I won't accept the validity of any review that gives score based on the person liking or not the game. That isn't how reviewing is supposed to be. You want to give your opinion on if you like a game you do an editorial, a review needs to talk about the game, what it try and accomplish. Not about what you wanted the game to be.
