Starfield, is it getting review bombed?
Seems kind of like the game is just suffering from reactionaries, but I definitely don't put that much stock in critic reviews these days either.
You're viewing part of a thread.
The reason it's lower on metacritic is mainly due to the fact that the critics rating is too high, imo. This leads to disappointed players leaving extra bad scores (i.e. 0/10) to offset the total score. In a way that's review bombing, but only as a reaction to the inflated critics' reviews (which I often suspect to be bought or bribed).
Usually the Steam reviews are a lot more reliable. As I said, metacritic's system is shit and encourages rating manipulation.
Why do you keep talking about metacritic as if I'm in any way defending it? Just simply stating its being review bombed and I'm glad you've come to the same conclusion.
Because my initial comment was about metacritic and my argument is that metacritic is a bad indicator of review bombing because it actually encourages it
You didn't actually mention metacritic in the comment I replied to.. you said people claim a review bomb and I said well yeah, it is. I really dont care about metacritic either but its kinda annoying when people bend definitions because a word has gotten a certain connotation.
Check the usernames, that wasn't me
So my question repeats: why mention it as if I'm defending it when I merely correctly stated its a review bomb. Like why are you trying to make that a discussion when it's not..
I'm not even making it a discussion. You mentioned metacritic in your (now edited) comment and I explained why metacritic's system actively encourages review bombing. So it's no wonder you'll see a decent amount of review bombing there.
I did not mention it at all not even in my original comment, also yes its ME that said it was a review bomb lol. it's like talking to a wall. cya.
