But there are counter-examples to that as well.  Speaking as a Halo fan, I think critics were quite nice to Infinite.  I loved my time with it at launch too, but not having Forge nor co-op was a fair sticking point when weighing someone's overall score.  Having it hover in the high 80's doesn't suggest a tax.  

Plus, The Coalition's Gears titles are given a fair shake.

Well coallition is great , they made Gears 5 in 3 years, co op from the start,  has still one of the most impressive graphics, Got excellent Dlc, even in 2 years after launch did excellent updates even when the first months were rough during covid and they had to resort to do some dripfeeding.

Their is no tax, thats a typical fanboy thing to say even expecting great reviews for new bethesda rpg's is based on fanboy talk.  Sure MW/Oblivion/Skyrim/F3 did well but their last game Fallout 4 had issues , similar issues like a Far Cry 6 or AC valhalla have,  feeling repetitive + adding stuff that doesn't really add much to the game or were for most gamers barely fun and then we are not even talking about the DLC , if Far Harbor did not come out the game would have had one of the worst DLC's in the RPG industry especially compared to games like the Witcher 3...    Well in a month we know more I just hope the MTX rumours are not true.

This is another nice example, I saw those Youtube videos popping up the moment that was seen, as soon as the speculation began, we have garbage like "BIG XBOX FAIL" in the titles. Some of these guys are absolutely desperate for negative news.

Anyway, ESRB uses the "In-Game Purchase" tag for DLC Expansions and if it isn't that it's very likely Creation Club.

Horizon: Forbidden West - ESRB

  • In-Game Purchases (PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5)

Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart - ESRB

  • In-Game Purchases (PlayStation 5)

But of course, people ran with the most negative without doing a bit of research (not directed at you but the Youtubers, Articles).
