I can't agree to that. Look at some of the scores for BotW. A few people scored it significantly lower than everybody else. The questions is why bother getting upset? If somebody thought Death was a boring tedious slog feast... they are suppose to give it 9/10 because Kojima? Because Sony? The idea that Sony games are reviewed more harshly is silly. GoW, Uncharted 1-4, TLoU, Horizon, Spiderman, MHW and many more scored amazingly well. Sony fans, in this case, are being silly. There simply isn't a media wide conspiracy against Sony.
Edit
As an example I would review RDR2 a 5/10, I hated it. Same with Sekiro. The idea that I HAVE to be trolling because I didn't like a critically acclaimed game is foolish. I sincerely and genuinely didn't like the game. As a point of clarity, I hated Xenoblade on the Wii U as well. I also don't like Animal Crossing.
On the flip side, I would give Last Guardian a 10/10, loved it.

That is because you are giving a score for how much you liked the game, not how good the game is.
I don`t like Halo and would score it 3 on my like, but I know the game is 8 or 9 so I would avoid reviewing.

Not really though, which is the point. I thought Sekiro was completely unbalanced and was **** as a result. I thought overall design was awful as well. Enemy placement was an issue for me. Others thought it was perfection. Which is exactly why some people love Death and others hate it. There shouldn't be a shock when people rate games different.
Games are art, it can't be reviewed by a technical assessment. Personal feelings drive how people think about art.
Ultimately I don't see the point in the argument "only people who love the game should review it." That makes no sense, other than inflating scores.
