Are you guys criticizing me for making this thread?

I'm criticizing you for taking a point completely out of context to make a clickbait headline. You could've made this thread without doing that.

Well here is the way I look at Bayonetta 2.

Lets say we have two identical volleyball games made.  Both play the exact same, both gameplay is amazing, fluid, flawless.  They both follow regulation volleyball rules, ect, ect.  Basically they are both 10/10 sports games for volleyball.

Now the one difference between the two games are is that one is a Olympic Volleyball game with real life volleyball players you play as.  the other is a dead or alive game, with big bouncy you know whats.  So just basically a skin change, or a quick mod if it was a pc game.

They should get the same freaking score.  Sexism or not, pretty sure I as the consumer can judge a game by its freaking cover.  It's not hard to look at the two games and decide NOT to buy DOA beach volleyball due to its sexist nature, something one can easily see from Bayonetta game cases as well.

No I didn't read the link.  I don't go to links.  Links go to sites that are most likely of some shit that just wants views.  I stick to mainly forums so that these shit ass sites don't get revenue from me.  

I know what freaking opinions and preferences are.  Everyone has them and there is no way of keeping htem out of a review.  But just like any statistics one does you need to remove the outliers, because they are not a good representation of the data.  Something that since Metacritic doesn't do, makes it a complete joke to me.

To me this guy/girl reviewing this game sounds like an outlier.  Not because of the score.  Nothing wrong with 7.8, but because of the views expressed.  It seems this person despises the water aspect of Pokemon, from traveling to the pokemon.  Hardly someone that should be reveiwing a game that has it as its main theme.  Same as I said before with the court case.  you should not put a racist person on the jury for the whatever the case is going on with the cop and the black kid that cuased the riots.  It's clearly gonna be a completely biased point of view.  

And as I said before, it goes both ways.  A die hard pokefanatic should not review this game either.  You should not have Misty review this game.  

So now you're changing your mind? Reviews can be biased after all? This person hardly despises the water aspects of pokemon, she just doesn't like them and don't think they're well executed. Despise is a very stong word. This score is 6 points below the average score. That's hardly an outlier. It just means she didn't like it quite as much as the average reviewer did.

Also, how can you say that this person despises the water aspect of pokemon when you haven't even read the review?

Well yea, you hope that the dev team has a female or whatever race, religion, ect part of the team that is making the game in order to keep it in line.  From all i've heard Bayonetta goes about its sexualization in a way that keeps it from being criminal.  Hell sometimes I find the things I see as "holy shit, how do they get away with that" as having been done by the very person it is making fun of.  (not solely speaking of games here)

It's the same way as Comics tend to not crack jokes that are about a different race/gender/religion/ect than themselves.

On Twitter she keeps changing from making fun of herself to defending herself. She either needs to delete the defensive tweets and embrace self-deprecation or stfu. She's just making things worse for herself.

I never changed my mind. 

And I said the score wasn't an outlier, i said the opinion/preference was.  Like a jury.  Talking about racism, it goes both way.  In the Ferguson trial, there are plenty of people who are 100% convinced before hand that the cop is guilty because they are racist, and there are plenty of people that are 100% positive that he is innocent because they are racist.  Both of those groups of people should be miles away from the jury panal for that court case.

From the quotes I have seen of this review, it seem seems this reveiwer doesn't like the water aspect of Pokemon games and thus should not be reviewing a pokemon game that revolves around water as its core theme.  They need to find someone impartial to water in Pokemon.  This impartial person may end up hating it by the end of the game, but they shouldn't before even picking up the game.

I dislike the water surfing in pokemon games as I said before, and thus if i were a reviewer i would excuse myself from reviewing this game.  I know before even playing this game that I would not really enjoy the game and thus would have a biased score.  

If it makes the game less fun than she has every right to dock it for having "too much water". Seems pretty simple to me...
