I don't know if anyone else has notice this but the majority of "0/10" reviews on metacritic are one review accounts made very recently. It's kind of sad that people feel the need to crap on something just to be a-holes. Sure DAI has some flaws, but it's still the best game i've played so far. I just hope that Bioware knows better than to base their bonus system off of user reviews. Some companies actually do that.

[Elhanan]

Never metacritic I didn't like, mainly because I never use their reviews. This kind of thing appears to the norm, and will continue to do so unless they enforce ownership of the games as a criteria to vote. Try Amazon instead; games still may get poor or praised reviews, but their votes are from actual owners of the games.

[DAOfanado]

Yeah it cant possibly be that new players make new accounts to rate a game ...

Reality is there are more than enough trolls on both sides that will most of the time simply give you a rather accurate score. (not to mention manipulations by marketing companies etc)

 

Also i think review-scores are even worse. The first few scores will be pretty much pointless (give us 9+ or you cant have the first review etc.). Next there will be lots of magazines that are afraid to give scores below 80 because they are afraid to get less money from ads from those companies etc. (have you never wondered why pre-release reviews always tend to be 9/10 or even 10/10?)

 

I dont see why ppl are complaining so much about user-reviews 0point reviews when there are probably equally as much 10point troll scores or even scores given from the developers themselves and random marketing companies ...

 

 

I only trust certain Youtubers reviews since years. And some sites that seem to be rather objective.

 

 

Reality is  DA:I scores from magazines are way too high now. PC Controlls, Cut-Scene fps drops etc.

[DangerKips]

^ What he said.

There are equal amounts of 10/10 trolls as there are 0 rating trolls. In between you might find honest reviews. It's a mixed bag from which you will have to take a sufficiently large sample size & then draw your own conclusions.

On a personal note, if this is the best game you've ever played you must have started gaming yesterday.

While you are at it, If you think that all the 0 are trolls, and only they make new accounts to posts 0, let's look at some of the 10 reviews, and reasoning behind their 10 :

 

Spoiler

• I'll rate this game a ten, to counter all the nonsense thta's been written here. 
   
• Man, the hate boner people have for BioWare/EA is ridiculous.
   
• I really just wanted to counter these reviews...
   
• All these negative reviews are fake or from bots.
   
• As usual MC has devolved into a gripe fest, so I have to give it a 10 to balance all the 0's
   
• I'm only partway in, but I felt I needed to write a review to counter the absurdly large number of negative ones. 
   
• I never write reviews, and this one will be very brief
   
• I would liked to have given a more nuanced review, but there are so many users who are giving mindless 0 reviews that I suspect a few people are spamming the site.
   
• anyway i would give this game 9/10 
   
• This game is obviously a 9/10. I gave it 10 just to balance those fake negative reviews.
   
• All the Zero's for the fact peoples pcs are garbage or they are having issues shows how imbalanced metacritic scores are. So Obligatory ten inc.
   
• I didn't play this game yet 
   
• I only have 1 thing for Bioware. I am truly sorry that you have to deal with this fan base. They have no idea what a good game is and I apologize that you have to put up with such scum.
   
• 10/10, actually it is more of a 9/10 but I have to boost the score by +1 to counter the unjustified low scores that the haters and for those that are unable to update their video card drivers.
   
• There is ....a lot of retarded "reviews" here that gave 0-3, that really puzzles me alot and amuses me too.
   
• The general consensus was that Dragon Age 2 was the ultimate RPG experience to date
   
• So I rarely write reviews, but the fact that there are so many negative reviews makes me write this.
   
• I just hope there will be enough people to counter the Trolls.
   
• I truly enjoyed this game. This is probably due to the fact that I am older than 10
   
• This is my first review on Metacritic, but i thought i would add my 2 cents in. For those whiners and crybabies who were expecting DA: Origins, please...stop right now, walk away and go play DA: Origins. This is DA: Inquisition, something a little different.
   
• Trust me if these haters could voted down the game prior to its release they would definitely do it the same.
   
• Despite all the BS about whether it is truly a dragon age origins style game is irrelevant
   
• Don't listen to haters, it's great crpg and im playing this genre from late 80's.
   
• I don`t know what are the whiners below talking about but this game is totally incredible!
   
• I am tired of the stupid critics on this site bashing this game and bioware
   
• Honestly i didn't play a game. 

 

Oh this one made even two accounts to post the same 10 review.

• Just registered to counter those zero points reviews. They are utterly laughable.

There you go. Shiny isn't it ?

[DemGeth]

People still look at metacritic user reviews?

 

lol really?

[cJohnOne]

At the beginning I looked at Metacritic for fun to see how they reacted to the new game but it isn't interesting now.

[dlux]

I don't know if anyone else has notice this but the majority of "0/10" reviews on metacritic are one review accounts made very recently.

Same goes for the one liner 10/10 reviews.

DA:O, ME1 and ME2 have a very high user score on Metacritic, while DA2, ME3 and DA:I have a low score. The critic score for all of those games is very high.
 
The Metacritic user score is remarkably accurate as opposed to the critic score.

[GrayTimber]

I tend to stay away from sites like those. Too many people bash Bioware now, don't trust open forums/reviews to be reasonable.

ahaha 

 

you are joking right.  meta critic is accurate.....  

 

i hope you're joking....people starting trolling that hard a couple years ago.  metacritic is terrible on release for user review score.  it is useful if u want to pull up a bunch of professional reviews to sort through though. 

 

They tend to sort themselves out the further you get from release date and the trolls go away.  X-Com I remember was rated a 2 or 3 for quite awhile.  Same thing with civ 5.  And pretty much any other game I've liked now that I think about it.  

[Han Master]

The user review store in DAI PC is legit as the controls for PC are bad, now if it's for the console versions then it's a troll.

[escapePlan]

The problem with metacritic I'm afraid.

[dantares83]

metacritiic is like imdb. too many trolls to be trusted. take all reviews with a pinch of salt (esp those one liner 10s and 1/0s)

[Bizantura]

I don't care much about reviews of professionals or non professionals.  Professionals don't seem to have my taste and the non professionals react mostly emotional and dare review a game after a few hours of gameplay which I think is silly but also unrespectfull to the team who made the game.

 

I youtube gameplay and for me that works in order to estimate if I will like it.  Title like it is an RPG isn't good enough, lots of RPG's out there I dont't like.

 

Simply put Bioware scores highly in their games where I do a total playthru not to mention the multi mutiples ones.

 

So I wised up, ended my payed gamer subsribtions and buy sales.  I got 55 steam games and play 3 of them semi regulary!!  And of those 55 are a lot I played for a few hours, it just didn't click.

 

Bioware games I still play them all and is the one exception I preorder.  Do I think their games are perfect, no far from it but they perfectly fit my needs concerning gaming and gameplay.  I am eagerly awaiting ME4 but enjoing DAI in the meantime.  Yes, more of a ME girl then DA girl.

[xkg]

Ok. One more thing. Let's do something like that.

 

We are going to ignore all the "0" and for the sake of balance let's also ingnore all the "10".

No, let's go even further. Ignoring all the "0" and "1" and only "10" from the top half:

 

User scores average (2..9 range) = 5.8

 

Now even bit further, ignoring "0" "1" "2" "10"

 

User scores average (3..9 range) = 6.3

 

I wonder how far should I go ignoring the bottom scores to even remotely reach the scores of DA:O.

Maybe I'll do that later, for now it is obvious, the scores are not rocking.

[JCAP]

Angry Joe. 'Nough said. Also...

[ioannisdenton]

1)who cares about mc scores
2) Fact: Da:I stomps on previous bioware games. Man i am a huge fan of mass effect and DAO but after DAI i simply cannot go back anymore.

[dlux]

There sure is a lot of butthurt in this thread because the metacritic user score for DA:I is rather low. 

 

DA:I deserves that low score just like ME3 and DA2. Get over it.

Or you get over the fact you don't like the game and leave please...

Case in point.

[Chari]

Places like Metatritics are good because they represent the players, good and bad, trolling, fanboying, hating, loving, not caring etc. It's like statistics - they do not really show details but rather a general image. Prof.reviews I do not trust anymore, to be honest. They always give 8/10 and higher to even bad games

Also as someone said prior to me - if you remove "troll" 0/10 posts then for equality sake you should also remove 10/10 posts. And calculate the rest. It's still pretty average

The best choice in my experience is youtube. Folk like AngryJoe. Or, well, especially AngryJoe

Trolling is never accurate.

[Han Master]

Lots of console fanboys are defending DA:I because it's made for consoles.

[escapePlan]

Nice one mate. I don't care either way if people like the game or not , I just don't get constant bashing of a game that you are no longer playing without constructive criticism.

What are you hoping to achieve?

[ZipZap2000]

Some people get really mad over games and this is how they vent, it's nothing new to metacritic. I think Inquisition stomps on everything else released this year but it does have problems. Not that it excuses that kind of behaviour with a game this good. They've got it at 7.2 for PS4 which is about right it's a solid 9 if the bugs had been worked out. 10/10 reviews are just as bad if you ask me that would imply perfection.
