[Reviews] Amnesia – A Machine For Pigs

[Cuyir]

I find it morbidly amusing how people treat reviews as universal truths.

The vast majority of people view reviews in the wrong way and use them in the wrong way.

"10 OUT OF 10??!!??!?!?! NEED TO PLAY IT. IT'S AMAZING."

"5/10? Meh, it's shit. The reviewer clearly hated it so i'll hate it too."

I wish people would teach the gaming ''scene'' how to interpret reviews.

If common points are raised by multiple people, that's more than enough reason to make a judgment about the game i.e. that it's easier than Amnesia 1/more story-based/got an ageing engine.

Funny how people will act superior for claiming not to listen to public opinion, when in reality that's what they do believe.

I'm not claiming any superiority. I'm just saying the truth. People view and analyze reviews the wrong way. What you just said is the correct way to view reviews. You SHOULD take what a lot of people mention and have it in mind but NOT treat reviews as universal truths.

But all i'm seeing is people pissing and moaning because of the low scores without playing the game.
