Why is the Metascore so low? - Damascus Rose - 09-10-2013 Why is the metascore so low if the reviews are good? Please use spoiler tags if necessary RE: Why is the Metascore so low? - Geoff - 09-10-2013 Why does it matter? Does your opinion on a game you haven't played yet change if reviews are good/bad?

No I'm just wondering why it is so low compared to TDD or other indie games especially when frictional say it gets good reviews RE: Why is the Metascore so low? - Alardem - 09-10-2013 Because the mean average between 10/10 and 0/10 reviews is somewhere in the middle. Alternately, most people just suck at reviewing things. RE: Why is the Metascore so low? - LHudson - 09-10-2013 Metacritic is a broken system, and has been for god knows. How the hell can a complex opinion have the quality summarised by numbers? RE: Why is the Metascore so low? - samueljustice00 - 09-10-2013 All reviews haven't been added and it won't be until a week after release when the meta is correct. Plenty enough time for you to make your own mind up :-) RE: Why is the Metascore so low? - Yuhaney - 09-10-2013 How is 74 a low score? RE: Why is the Metascore so low? - samueljustice00 - 09-10-2013 The thing I personally find interesting is how polarising the reviews are, it shows how you should not base any decision on one. RE: Why is the Metascore so low? - Geoff - 09-10-2013 I find it funny that some people base their purchase on reviews. It's like when I get a friend to tell me he won't be seeing a movie because some random magazine gave the movie a 1/5.

Oh thank you for the answer sam. I look forward to playing the game tomorrow;D |
