| Zackasaurus-rex said: Numeric rating systems are inherently bullshit, especially when compiled across different authors and different genres. Reviews should be informative in text without having any sort of score at the end. Anything short of that is intellectually dishonest. |
We get it, we know its bullshit, we dint choose our king, but its the one we have. Its like the war in the middle east, some dont want any part in it but wen they get attack, they either fight back or die.
It dosent matter who likes what, metacritic is already on top and its dying. WHen that happens individual reviews will amount to nothing and we will have games like sonic boom claiming that they are game of the year contenders or amazing games or even good enough cuz we will have no point of reference that unifys all reviews and they can just take the only ones that say its good and spam it on tv comercials and over the internet.
This is like a tumor we ignore cuz it doesnt bother us that much now, but eventually becomes a cancer and we are fucked cuz we ignored the small problem.
It takes genuine talent to see greatness in yourself despite your absence of genuine talent.
