There are plenty of games that I have enjoyed that were sub 80 Meta, I wouldn’t give scores that much weight especially when you consider how bad many VG Journalists are these days.

For example in my personal opinion Ghosts of Tsushima is a much better game than Horizon Zero Dawn and yet it only scored an 83, High on Life was given a score of 67 despite the fact that it was a good game and had very fun combat, then you have Journos giving Stray a high score and was nominated for GOTY despite a handful of other indie games that were better.
