    Should you trust the MetaCritic scores or User scores?

    Answer: Neither. Only your own score.

    "aswell" ?

     

    50% of the "critics" rate it at 80/100 or higher.

     

    The "user" rating is 86/100.

     

    So at this stage, it seems like the people actually playing the game are rather enjoying it...

    I agree what your saying and i have played the game, i kind agree with the score but i think everyone should play it until they rate it .

    I posted this same quote in the other thread about 8.6 out fo 100 of user score, just so you know. it's to show that opinion change. I knwo you aren't much of a fan xenpt, which is cool, that's what opinion is all about after all, but that's just it. Only ones review is that matters in the end, so from others, professionals or gamers. image

    i just think people should try the games and then rate it i liked the game the story environment everything but when i started to feel the actual gameplay it was just not for me you know but i understand that lots of people will like it regardless.

    Metacritic is a pretty harsh aggregator so it's prett decent score.  (For example, The Avengers movie is rated 69/100 on there and the Hunger Games is at 67.  And these are two of the better mainstream movies from this year.)  

     

    Of course.. it also has SWTOR at 85... with a woeful 5.3 user score lol.

    Diablo meta score was amazing, user meta score was awful. People said all the reviewers are shills and believe the users.

    TSW meta score is OK/Good, user met a score is good/great. People say that the reviewrs are spot on when they score the game lower.

    It is sad, there is a culture in games reviews that anything below a 7 is unplayably bad. Games scores now boil down to 10 - great, 9- very good, 8- good, 7- OK, 6 and below - train wreck.

    Movie reviewers give much more realistic scores, there isnt a culture of giving 10/10 for things that aren't perfect and you don't have a whole community that get up in arms when there chosen film gets anything less than a 10.

    Games journalism is really poor, there are so many people not qualified to even be journalists that pretend to be it's unreal.
