Why so many dislikes?

People today think anything less than 10/10 from a major reviewer is terrible.

Because it's a goddamn farce.

>>340621075
deserves a 7 at most, so yeah a 9 is a stupid rating to give it.

Because it was first presented as a ''Review In Progress'' with a score of 8.2 when everybody knew that their true score would be higher and that they were just fishing for traffic to their website

I thought the game was an overhyped piece of shit. Only doom and maybe overwatch was worth the monies, also Valkyria chronicles is one of em games.

Maybe if they stopped handing out 9/10 and 10/10 scores like they were candy they wouldn't have that problem, it's their own fault.

Didn't it turn out that the number of dislikes was because they thought 9 was too high?
>>
>>340621583

No, because who does that other than 20 anons from /v/?
>>
>>340621583

By that logic every other youtube video that gave the game a high score should have the same level of dislikes
>>
>>340621583
Nope, everyone thought it was too low.
It's weird that everyone thinks a 9 is average and anything below 8 or 7 is garbage.

Uncharted 4 is no more than a 6/10. I don't get how people can hype it up so hard when it's worse than its predecessors in every way except graphics. The combat in Uncharted 4 was dreadful and I tried to stealth my way past most encounters because of how tedious they were.

You can do the same with the uncharted praises but i'm too lazy.... metacritic scores are just stupid anyway and anyone who takes them serious has severe autism
>>
>>340621149
Because it sort of is really.

IGN gave Homefront 2 a 5/10 even thought they said it's pretty much unplayable.

This is what happens when you hand out every other game that's ''sort of ok'' a 9/10

Actual ratings.

0-9/10 = 0/10
9.1/10 = 1/10
9.2/10 = 2/10
9.3/10 = 3/10
9.4/10 = 4/10
9.5/10 = 5/10
9.6/10 = 6/10
9.7/10 = 7/10

Probably because its a 6 or 7 at best but IGN hands out a 9 because that's all they count to any triple A that is going to buy extensive ad space.

People wanted it to have a 10 because it's so pretty and exclusive.

In personally think the game was somewhere between 8.0 and 9.0.
Solid fun if you enjoy the series.

>still caring about what other people think of games

if you enjoy something just play it
>>
>>340621075
Because the entire game consists of pre-scripted action events, huge cutscenes and barely any gameplay. It's like you're watching a Hollywood action movie instead of playing a game.

The new Tomb Raider games did it a lot better.

You are exactly what's wrong with reviews nowadays, kys.

I didn't know IGN reviewed movies

>>340622175
And this is why scores are garbage. They're so unbelievably irrelevant, yet they persist.

There shouldn't be any type of numerical rating. The reviewer should include a final sentence in his conclusions as to why someone might want to buy or pass on the game.
>>
Not even worth a 9 tbqh.
Got bored after mission 13.
>>
>>340621075
I'd dislike it as well, it's barely worth a 6/10.
>>
>>340621583

No, it's because they have given trash like undertale a 10, they also gave halo 4 like a 9.6 or something.

Their rating system makes no sense. Are you seriously telling me uncharted 4 is a worse game than halo 4 or fucking memetale? Nigger fucking please.
>>
>>340626074
>Uncharted 4
>NOT worse than Undermeme
Good graphics only get you so far.
>>
>>340626169

Uncharted 4 has actual gameplay, yes, movie meme aside, the gameplay in ucharted 4 is still leagues ahead of tumblrtale.

If uncharted 4 is somehow not a game and only has "good graphics", then memetale is even less than that, because it doesn't even have that.
>>
Reminder that the only people that perpetuate the "tilted scores" bullshit is people whining about scores in the first place.

IGN have given various games 5 and 6 to show that they're playable but significantly flawed. Plenty of broken games get sub 4.

The issue is you faggots who are so stuck up your own ass that you call everything shit anyway, so when an okay game gets a 5 or 6, you assume the game is shit and when a good game gets a 7 or 8 you assume it's just okay etc.

Here's a protip for you: Stop shitting mindlessly on games you literally haven't even fucking played, stop assuming games are shit based on 6s and 7s because of your self perpetuating tilted score horseshit and start actually playing video games and seeing that, actually, most scores are pretty fucking fair. (this doesn't apply to any one specific game before you call me an apologist or shill or some stupid fucking shit because you're a fucking moron who assumes anyone who is calling you out must be defending some specific game)
>>
>>340623843
You really don't have an argument, because your fanbase is the only fanbase that petitions to have reviewers censored.
The "which fanbase is most immature about reviews" argument has now fully ended. It's over, sonyponies outdid everyone for like a decade with that washington post thing.

To all those buttmad fanboys.

We've reached the point where a 9/10 is worth what a 7/10 used to be worth, which is what a 2/10 used to be worth before that.

The kind of mentality scores brings about is why I'm honestly 100% in favor of any scoring system that has less numbers to putz around in. My ideal one is a buy/rent/pass one if not just ignoring the number at the end outright.
>>
>>340626282
I'll take an RPG with slight Shmup elements over very brief, shitty rehash gameplay, m8.

It's at least a 6/10, which is more than I can say for U4.
>>
>>340625370
You're right. How about you start your own review site and don't use scores? Oh wait, you're a fucking retard.
>>
>>340626907

So you're autistic then.
>>
>>340626298
>IGN have given various games 5 and 6 to show that they're playable but significantly flawed. Plenty of broken games get sub 4.

5 should be a neutral score. 6 should mean good. A broken game should get a 0.

>Prefers new mediocrity to rehashed mediocrity.

I think the only autist here is the one comparing a dank new AAA game to a game he hasn't played.

Scores are click bait, they're the lifeblood of the review industry. The problem is that video game reviewers have no idea how to utilize them. The music review industry has though. Pitchfork, Scaruffi, Fantano, etc have balanced their scales in a way that drums up attention when they give very high or very low scores. When Pitchfork gives something a ten, it infects music listeners, whether they agree with it or not it's all they'll be talking about for weeks. When IGN gives something a ten, it means nothing.
>>
>>340621075
Sooo we're agrees that there is no factual basis for why the video was so disliked??

What's the point of a review if the reviewer just panders to the screams of the hardcore fans instead of giving his own thoughts

>it deserved a lower score
>go cry some more
