I suppose an unfair metascore would be a difference of at least 10 points from what I think the game deserves.
- Should be higher:
- Nier - 68 Metascore, the story and characters alone deserve better, and the rest of the game isn't that bad either. Fortunately the remake gave the game second chance.
- Tales of Berseria - 79 Metascore. The best game in the whole series in my opinion, deserves somewhere closer to 90.
- The Legend of Dragoon - 74 Metascore. My second favourite game ever, so deserves much more.
- The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky SC - 80 metascore. The best game in the series in my opinion, and I rate at least five of them at 90 or above.
- Should be lower:
- Dead Space - 88 metascore (on PS3). For a horror game that is rarely scary after the first 30-40 minutes that's a very high score.
- Red Dead Redemption - 95 metascore. I think it took me at least six months to finish the game because nothing about it was genuinely great or that engaging, outside of maybe its soundtrack.
- Nioh - 88 metascore. Kinda on the limit here, since I would give Nioh maybe an 8/10. It's a very good game, just not as good as a lot of people made it out to be. I finished it, but unlike the Dark Souls-games or Bloodborne for example, I doubt I'll ever bother going back to Nioh nor do I really have much interest in playing the sequel.
