Metacritic down to 87.

I see Quarter to Three is still active posting their usual troll scores.

Yikes. How does meta still accept their reviews? Almost every review I've ever seen from them was way below the average for a game, it's clear that they give low scores just for clickbait.

Statistically speaking, there necessarily should be a few reviewers with way below the average reviews.

Even if you are right, why does this bother you, exactly? I'm sure a lot of the 10s are just hype machine reviews that are in bed with developers or want to prop up a certain console etc. but I don't see you complaining about these.

I guess that's because when it comes to answering game criticism, going beyond the "nope, you are nitpicking and biased, I win, bye bye" is just too much mental gymnastics for most people.

Not that that's necessarily wrong, by the way. The effort I mean. It's just video games, after all.
