Ah yes, I'm going to trust trolls mass-spamming user reviews on metacritic. The smart way to reinforce my narrative!

Shocking.

And given how early these reviews are, the worst is yet to come. :(

It's Final Fantasy XIII all over again. Hardly any critics have the balls to score the game based on its merits whereas all of the fans are ripping it into shreds.


Metacritic is a bad website in general. I don't think anyone really cares what they have to say..




Not true: read this http://www.computera...rotocol-sequel/

Sega West president Michael Hayes "The concept was brilliant, though," he added. "You know this whole thing with Metacritic where you have to be in the high 70s to mid-80s minimum [to have any success] - well, with RPGs you have got to be in the late 80s. Whilst we had a good game, I don't think we had a game that had enough to get us to that upper echelon and I think that was the issue."

It wasn't just poor sales. Metacritic is more powerful than you think.


Metacritic is powerful for simple-minded pleebs that need others to tell them what to think and how to think it. Who cares what a reviewer says, professional or otherwise. 

If you like the game, play it. If not go away so that those of us that want to actually discuss the damn game can do so without wading through pointless crap like this.


A high metacritic rating is extremly important to publishers. 

While it's not always accurate, dismissing it when it's one of the first thing publishers look at is not too bright.

You can bet someone at Bioware is looking at why it's rated almost 11-12 points lower than ME2 or DAO. If that impacts sales, you bet questions will be asked by EA and someone at Bioware will have to answer them. 


Bioware advertised ME2's meta critic score on the ME site but it means nothing. Anyone will take a good review from literally anywhere to market their product. Schlock movies do this a lot and will take a line from a magazine written my chimps or mental patients if it makes their product look good. Not comparing Bioware to these clowns but any good review is a marketing tool.
