Well I am not against low scores given, not every game is made for everyone. As long as they are not troll reviews like scoring a game a 2/10 than it might be going too far. 7/10 or even 6/10 are not bad scores, they are considered average scores so there are a few reviews that think the game is average. It comes down to your personal take, review scores are just guide lines, without the flexibility and freedom for reviewers, everyone will be just scoring games 10/10s.

Prequel or not, many were saying the God of War franchise was getting stale and Ascensions was exactly that. Why do you think Sony revamped the franchise? because the game design was just not carrying over anymore. Games can score high and still not be in contention for GOTY. 2018, Forza Horizon 4 scored a 92 and wasn't in the overall GOTY category and placed in a sub Racing genre which it did win, however wasn't even looked at for GOTY.
Either way the point is, if Sony companies can turn there fortunes around, same can be said for any company. Capcom turned there fortunes around with Monster Hunter, RE2 Remake and DMC5 releases and so did Santa Monica with GoW4 coming from Ascensions. Things can happen, weather it does for 343, we can only wait and see.
