Your first sentence doesn't make sense, the game scored very high because most people agreeded it's good. If the game wasn't as good it wouldn't receive the high score 

The heavy reviews made the game an instant hit, from an unknow IP to GOTY. This could never happen with mid reviews no matter how good was the WOM

3 million or so units from the core fanbase is expected for MP4. The issue here is with heavy reviews it would bring sales from people are indifferent to the series, those sales are essentially gone now. In this sense is fair to assume the reviews will impact the sales negatively 

No, the game scored high because out of over 8 billion people on Earth, the mere 84 who are counted on Metacritic thought it was good. Reviews are not an objective measure of quality, they are the opinions of a tiny, tiny group of people.

And the number of gamers who'd pass on a game cos of an 81 metacritic is a similarly tiny, tiny group.

Funny thing is, with only 84 reviews you can estimate with 90% confidence and 9% of error margin the average score give to a game from pretty much any population size! granted the sample is random of course, which is not the case here so I'm being disingenuous 

My real point is you're severely underestimating how much critics and public scores actually overlaps. They do overlap by a lot. When I say E33 is good, what I'm saying is "people who played agreeded it's good, if the game was not agreeded to be good it would have scored poorly"

The consensus is Clair Obscure is quite good, and this consensus started by critics, the public just followed suit
