Critic reviews at launch were, user reviews on steam and other platforms are approaching mixed territory

User reviews aren’t worth the bandwidth you use reading them.

not true, especially with games like starfield, were people tried to force themselves to enjoy it, and then you get a one star review after 100+ hours...thats as close as you can get to the truth

A 1/10 review score isn't close to the truth on almost any game.

C'mon now, you're just proving my point of how useless they are.

I'm sorry, if you play a game, any game, for a 100+ hours and rate it a 1/10, what's wrong with you?

Like the game was good enough for you to pour a 100 hours in? Were you sitting there going, AH SHOOT I HATE THIS GAME IT SUCKS LET ME JUST KEEP PLAYING IT for 90 hours straight?

Like be real, if you spend even 25 hours on a game it definitely means its at least a decent game. At least a 5/10 regardless. A 1/10 would mean the game is so bad it's unplayable to you.

I see some people saying "Oh I got bored 50 hours in, so the game sucks" and I'm so confused was the expectation that you get 1000 hours without getting bored? The vast majority of players aren't pouring thousands of hours into these games? The average amount of hours a skyrim player has across its player base is 75.

i'm sorry, but are you like the ghost of christmas past? why would you come to a post thats over a month old and regurgitate arguments that have been discussed a thousand times, since then? how did you even end up here? do you think i want to discuss this with you? nobody else will read this.

Regurgitated arguments? I don't see any. I brought it up because I haven't seen anyone else say it.

Anyone who can play that game and says it’s a 1/10 isn’t someone who should be taken seriously.

tbf people are emotional because they wanted an evolution of skyrim and fallout and they got something worse.

todd said we have this great new engine and exploration on a level you have never seen before, while creation engine still looks like hot garbage and there is no exploration at all. you get a list of fast travel locations and half of those locations are not worth visiting.

i gave it a 6/10 for main story and factions alone and i liked interior graphics detail (rendered buttons etc.) but it did feel much worse than a 6/10 to me. it felt like i wasted my time on that game.

thats what persuades some people to give it the lowest ranking possible.

of course there are always trolls that give low scores, because they hated some kind of social/political message, thats true. just look at TLOU2
