Why the fuck does /v/ care about reviews?

Remember when IGN was a fucking meme? Now people use scores from their reviews to prove some retared point like 'x is better than y!'

What the fuck, why does /v/ care about reviews written by people who give GOTY nominations/awards to shit like Assassin's Creed rehashes, Dragon Age Inquisition, Skyrim and Gone Home?

What the fuck.

it actually dont, its shills who bring up shit like link threads to his clickbaits blogs, or make a shit game relevant, like all those todds threads after fallout, and by shills its not just paid PR, there are people who were trolled to do it for free.
also, this place is worse than europe right now, between raids from other sites to post shit to bait retards and people defending the worst of vidya, you cant talk as a whole anymore. most people left, a few stayed.

OP here.

Skyrim is very enjoyable with a lot of mods but vanilla sucks.

>>333170161
Nah, I'm talking about people who legitimately base their opinions on reviews and use scores as an argument to prove their point

>>333170170
I never understood 8.8 meme, never played Twilight Princess

I'm really fucking sad about the consolewars, the biggest cancer of /v/.

The first two rules of /v/ don't really matter now, mods don't care

/v/ is changing anon, it's all kids nowadays and they failed to learn anything when they came on this board, now they are the majority and /v/ has turned into this cesspool, that and shills. we have nowhere to go anymore

>>333169772
Is it your first time on /v/?

Do you actually think people here give a shit about which game is better or fun? Reviews, sales figures etc. are all a device to shitpost and make people mad. Whether if they are accurate is completely irrelevant.

If you genuinely want to talk about video games make friends and sit and talk with them.

They do it only because their point makes people mad not because they actually believe what they talk about. A non-shitposter would base their arguments on their own experiences with the game , not a fucking reviewer.

I think it's just fuel for the fire. /v/ is going to shit on any mainstream anything regardless of its reviews.

If a 10/10, it's shit. If it's 9.5/10, it not good enough to be shit. If it's like a 7/10, it's a gem that reviewers clearly missed. That's not all of /v/, but the vocal minority thinks that way.

Back in 2006 after the Final Fantasy XII release some people really liked it and some of them hated it

But no one used dumb arguments about it getting goty awards, people defended it for what it was

Sorry, in 2006 I was actually happy so I wasn't browsing 4 chan.

I've never had any problems in my life and I've been browsing 4chan since early 2006
