Come on !  It's getting boring, another Perfect Score, from Washingtonpost, 100/100 :

''

Bloodborne: The most recent Souls game is brutal, violent and exhilarating

When I finished “Dark Souls 2,” I felt utterly burnt out with the series into which I had poured over 400 hours. But “Bloodborne’s” labyrinths and fantastic creature design ensnared me from the first. Whereas “Dark Souls 2” felt to me as if it was laboring under the weight of its forebears,“Bloodborne” feels like the swaggering culmination of them. From Software has, in the best possible way, brought the evil back.''

Don't worry, Eileen the Crow questline is so fucking broken and buggy you'll be lucky to not loose out on all her shit like I have, propper fucks me off.

Also the NPC's in this game compared to previous games are crap.

BB review scale.

93 = Masterpiece
92 = Shit

Go Go BB!.

There was someone on this site who canceled his pre-order of Halo MCC because its score was on 89 rather than the 92 he expected. And he hadn't read the reviews apparently.
Faith in humanity -1 points.

Not buying a Game because it does not get what you expect ?   Counting points of Meta, not a very wise move.

Just imagine you don't buy Bloodborne because Meta was 90 instead of 93%.

By the way, go BB, 94% is still a possibility :D

94 being so close to 92 and with this amount of reviews? Hardly.

Nothing is impossible for Bloodborne :)   The Masterpiece has the Evil Power to manipulate Metacritic !

Well, it's not impossible, but very unlikely.

I remember ethomaz had an estimate of around 5 100s (being the only new scores) to jump to 94 when it had around 60 reviews and was probably higher in the 93 than it's now, so let's say we would need 6 ot 7 straight 100s to it go reach 94.

That's around half the amount of this notes it got until now, so expecting this only score, the highest possible, to jump 50% now after two weeks of release when the reviews are already rare and about to stop popping, well... it's simply not going to happen, even as I would like to see it, unless we have early reviews with lower scores as 90 willing to update the scores now after actually playing it to its fullest, what is also really unlikely.

I'm happy with 93, even though seems like it would be a 95 wasn't for the load times.

Also estebxx nailed it with 93 and he is the Souls guy here (ask the Maiden in Black), so that's also a nice touch

I agree;      and as you said, Meta could be easy 95/100 with faster loading times...

Maybe a new patch will come soon to improve this.

It's actually kind of funny, I estimated 86-87, figuring it was going to be seen as good as Dark Souls or Demon's Souls...but more harshly criticized due to it being on new consoles.

I mean look at LittleBigPlanet 3 and inFamous Second Son, barely broke 80%, despite being as good as they are. LBP3 is easily the best in a series that got 94 and 92 in its previous two iterations and is at 80 for its third. Second Son should have remained between the first two, so mid-80s, but it barely broke 80 despite being on par with the previous two games.

At least Nintendo Games are all still reviewing super well, and are remaining in the bracket they deserve. Smash and Mario are both awesome.
