The last game that got a 98/100 on Metacritic was Grand Theft Auto IV in 2008. Since then, we got Mario Galaxy 2, GTA V, three Uncharted games, Batman: Arkham City, MGS V, Breath of the Wild, Red Dead Redemption 2, and many others, but none of them managed to reach more than a 97/100.

I feel that with the growing amount of critics, the growing desire for clicks from these critics and the technological advances slowing down, no other game will ever reach 98+ on Metacritic, no matter how good it is. I don't even know if that's a bad thing either.

What do you think?

It is highly unlikely we will get a 98/100 anytime soon for all the reasons you listed. But because this an absolutist question, I have to say yes we will. I don't know when or from whom, but at some point in the future course of gaming history we will. Unless there is a world wide economic collapse or the world ends of course.
