In the end, scores are given by other people, and they have their own opinions, which may be very different from your own.
Death Stranding, it has an 8.2 but should be 12 maybe 13/10Is there any universal examples where this is the case?

Thanks OP.
You have convinced me to finally pull the trigger on Bullet Witch.

For me it was Minority Report on PS2/GC. Game was not great whatsoever, but damn did it make me laugh. So, it was entertaining enough, lol.The biggest example for me is Spy Vs Spy on the PS2.
That game got 38 meta on PS2 and 53 on Xbox but I played a lot of it in local multiplayer when I was younger.
That is true, one of my beloved games from ps4 gen is this beauty, had superfun 120h playtime in it.In the end, scores are given by other people, and they have their own opinions, which may be very different from your own.
This.It's true OP, but it's wildly apparent that the numbers hold way too much power in the eyes of some.![]()
I mean, a 78 would be a C+ in school, so yeah, it's accurate. Though to some a 78 could be average or slightly above average depending on who you're talking to. It's all subjective.This.
Imagine someone calling a game with a 78 metacritic score mediocre.

Never played either.
I've always told others if there's something that you're genuinely excited about, check it out regardless of the reaction. If you want to wait for it to drop in price JUST in case, I get it. But to completely skip something you were GENUINELY interested in because of the mouths of others is a shame. You can miss out on so many things you may enjoy/love.100% OP
People miss out on alot due to others opinions. As a kid i was un bothered and played alot of what people would consider trash.
Applies to highly rated games i may not like etc.
I really enjoyed Skull and Bones- its an opinion i formed on my own despite others or politics
Yes. How about giving us some examples of such games?In the end, scores are given by other people, and they have their own opinions, which may be very different from your own.
I would say it is more true for games because of the huge range of games.It's more true for movies cause most of the good movies doesn't have a huge score while the games I mostly like usually does have a good score on Steam and others.

You might be neglecting to take into account that some of those people behind those review scores at times aren't necessarily qualified to make that assessment.Aggregate scores are a good way to decide if one should spend their hard-earned money on a game or not.
It's weird to completely dismiss off reviews before making a purchase decision / decision to spend your time on a game.
