You know your post doesn't change anything I said. Reviewers can use whatever excuses they like, but it's simply a fact that what they're reviewing is not everything people are gonna be paying for so they need to accommodate accordingly if they want their review to be relevant.

How is an 8/10 not considered a great score? Am I missing something?

Price isnt stable, score is.

Special for pc games, most games will easily drop to 5-10$ in just 1-2 years.

So if i want to get any old game (lets say Assassins creed III) and ill check metacritic, AC III will have a score of 80 but OlliOlli of 82. So ill think that OlliOlli is the superior game. Both will cost the same.

Thats why price shouldnt be considered, but ok i dont care about this metascore at all, so lets finish this ;)

There is no way to know if the maps are any good though, so they can't take them into account. Seems like it's going to stay above 80%, but only because they are quite a lot of 90 scores. Don't really see how they could score it that high with the limited amount of content.

You haven't been paying attention at all have you...

But that's the game they are playing right now. They can't score the content that isn't there. 

You are saying they should review games and score them according to the improvements that might come down the line, not review the game that they get. 

The fault is not on the reviewers. It's on Nintendo and its strange release "strategy" for the game. 

Reviewers are reviewing exactly what customers are paying for, nothing more, nothing less. 

That you are willing to accept little now in exchange for future promises is your choice, but people want to know now what they are getting now, once they insert a disc into the console.

Wow I predicted 79, I'll be right in a few weeks.

It's a pretty good score for a new IP.

Quality isn't stable either. Many games that felt great to me 10 years ago now feel outdated. Their 'score' has dropped. The only consistent and fair way to go about things is to rate them based on the present, which includes their value (both price and content). Again, you don't have to like it, but it's a belief the majority seem to share ^^

Honestly, all the debate now is because 1 single user.

I´m ok with the score, I don´t agree with it, but is good enough and the reviews says really nice things about the game, even the worse ones, so I think we are all ok with that.
