>Prior to the redesign, Baldurs Gate 3 was the highest rated #96 metacritic game, it is now the lowest and one bad review away from dropping to 95
>Meanhwhile Tears Of The Kingdom, which was one of the lowest rated 96 games is now suddenly the single highest 96 Metacritic game
Never let anyone tell you the Tendie Bonus isn't real, Meanwhile on Opencritic BG3 is still higher than TOTK.
>game reviewers are corrupt
you are right and this has been proven countless times
The numbers are rounded for display on the front end, but likely have some decimal places of accuracy on the backend for sorting.
No they don't, they simply started weighing the critic reviews of websites like Nintendo Magazine more, the reviews haven't changed one bit.
BG3's PS5 score was the highest of all time above Elden Ring just yesterday, it dropped below it after today.
Fanboy pages should get the lowest priority if not outright excluded. It's extremely obvious they're just gonna shill exclusives and blow up the critic score.
>that pic
LMAO reviewers truly are braindead cattle.
>No they don't
Retarded newfag, they literally do.
tencent (a chinese company) owns a large stock in larian, you're basically saying "slay chinks uyeeeee"
Make no mistakes about it, I am not in favor of the European goys.
I am simply against the Japanese garden gnomes.
where did the chinese touch you, muttendo?
>giving a fuck about a trash websites that puts a scoring system to an art product (yes, games a legally art and therefore by law art. Don't be a retarded sovereign citizen)
>giving a fuck about "GOTY"
Who cares? Art can't be rated and there can't be a "game of the year". What you mean is "Websit/private Person/private company says that Game X is THEIR favorite game of the year"
Is the same shit with "Miss Universe" and other subjective rating bullshit. It has no official meaning and is as qualified as whatever the drunken hobo says on the street.
games actually are not legally art since the art money laundering laws dont affect video games
>muh art
Pretentious. I rate this anon's post a 3.5/10.
damn, so what are you going to do about it besides killing yourself? making more shitty threads on Ganker isn't helping.
seethe bearcuck, game of the generation
I hate Japs and I hate shitendo
>shit console for kids
>autistic gameplay about little yellow haired gays in cartoonish world
Lmao
imagine how retarded you'd have to be to genuinely think this.
Open crtic that use all review, even thos from ai generated god shit website. yeah right.
Those from AI generated sites don't matter because only Top critic websites count for the score.
Retard, no.
I want to design my own review website thats 100% controlled by users with this gimmick that would make it so people understand why something is popular based on who's rating it.
There's no fucking reason why barbie and Oppenheimer get the same review score and users need to guess if it's right for them based off an arbitrary number.
If you like Oppenheimer you probably like no country for old men, and Tenet, and inception.
If you like barbie you like twilight and the notebook. Users should know what's popular with a demographic and not have to guess.
So if you create an account you pick movies you liked, and when you review something it will be rates across different demographics. If you like horror movies and hate romances, you'll see what other horror fans rate romance movies based on your demographic opinion.
I'm sick of hearing fags who only like call of duty rating Zelda games, I'm tired of fags that only like silent German expression films giving good movies shit reviews. I'm pissed that users need to rely on either a retarded review site with bias critics or YouTube influencers with an agenda.
This already exists for movies and video games though. This isn't a new concept.
>guess if it's right for them based off an arbitrary number
They don't? If you can't tell from the fucking title whether Barbie or Oppenheimer is something you might be interested in then you might be retarded. The title/trailer/premise of the movie tells you if it's for you, and the score tells you if you might like it or not. Someone who sees these two movies with the same score doesn't get confused, they know that if they were interested in Barbie then it's worth seeing Barbie, and if they were interested in Oppenheimer then it's worth seeing Oppenheimer.
Only retards view review scores in such a binary lens. That anon trying to summarize that "good score must mean good product" is such a midwit take that I see parroted here for video games so often it drives me insane.
Everyone has that 6/10 game they absolute love and would argue until they're blue in the face that it's a great game. I just hate this idea that everything needs to be summarized or condensed into digestible bites for whether thing is good or bad based off a number. You are correct that if you are unable to identify what you may or may not like from immediate snippets of a game then you might just be retarded and no amount of aggregate data will solve that.
You fucking gays have no idea what you're talking about and the fact that you defend current review sites by saying "anyone can figure out what they like based on the title!" Paints you as fucking morons.
have a nice day
The fact you read any of that and felt defensive over it really showcases how much of a retard you actually are.
this is basically Rate Your Music and everybody hates it.
The site was decent before it got infested with trannies
For me just getting to ignore reviews from anyone who has a suHispaniciously large percentage of 0s or 10s would be just great.
You have the right idea, but this is essentially already what Letterboxd and (for games) Backloggd are and they come with plenty of their own problems., namely inflating/deflating the average score of a movie/game based on nebulous bullshit that has nothing to do with the work itself. I have a lot of followers on the latter and I partially contribute to it out of spite, so that at least one top review for a game I like will actually be about the fucking game.
Just subtract 20, that's always the real score with nintendo games.
Then add 30 for the japanese deduction
>can’t make zero value shitpost threads about BG3 being above TotK
They will PAY FOR THIS!!!!!!
The only reason BG3 was a fraction above TOTK is because of the chud tax, so I don’t care
The scores didn't change, the "Weight" behind the score did.
I know, chud tax still stands
>Nintendo defence force has arrived
right on queue.
they're terminally online because they have no games to play and no lives
>game that was 96.0 is now 96.999
So the Nintendo bonus is < 1 point. Got it.
fuck baldurs
>Baldurs Gate 3 was the highest rated #96 metacritic game, it is now the lowest and one bad review away from dropping to 95
Well if it's close to dropping to 95 then why wouldn't it be the lowest placed 96?
Nintendo was supposed to lose
STOP THE COUNT.
Verification not required.
Look up Unit 731. Reminder the Japs are the most disgustingly evil creatures to roam this earth.
chinese propaganda.
ching chong nip nop for you
Japan made anime and good games. They're based as fuck.
chinese ain't human so I see no problem.
They did it on non Chinese.
Whole thing about Chinese was made up.
yeah but this board is r/nintendo refugee relocation board now so you cant criticize honorary japan
I mean that was terrible but what the fuck does it have to do with video games
This is probably what happened.
>Slack and chud Sterling got weighed less from more reputable and consistent reviewers
Because Slack is a new and controversial reviewer while chud Sterling has an obvious negative agenda. We can't have that in the reviewing community but you can't just remove them hence the revamp to the weighing system.
Good. Fuck that chud "game"
>96==96
Huh?
>this is what snoys chose to get mad about in 2023
Balding Goy's 3 shills in fucking shambles
In what universe is TotK of the Kingdom a 96? They forgot to add dungeons to it.
Seethe cope dilate
chinks own 30% of larian
In case you don't know chinks own 30% of pretty much every publicly traded gaming company.
We've known the tendie bias is real at this point. Best you can do is acknowledge critics as the hacks that they are.
that definitely feels like something so(y)faced nintendo fanboys would do
seethe more, bear molester
i do not care
Good, fuck europoors, after the launch of that abomination /v became worse , tired of the spamming of that trash non stop here during europoors and subuhmans hours ( chinks, pajeets etc) and them to shit on every thread about different games or rpg's
chinese assets anon
Redpill me on NFL 2K1
Actual shizo shit, jesus fuck.
>game comes out 4 months ago
>sells well, reviews highly, people enjoy it, move on with their lives
>review aggregate torments its mentally ill detractors who have been pathologically obsessed with it long after anybody would give it any significant weight
OP really made an entire collage off a rounding error.
A shitty divinity reskin shouldn't be near 95 anyway. Hiding behind a niche genre on a limited scoring scale due to reduced public interest and asstons of Chinese admoney to make it look hyped is nonsensical to even rank on any sort of rating site.
imagine all that effort and still not even making game of the month , less along of the year
less alone**
>he's still at it

I genuinely wonder what you're actual agenda is because this isn't just chink hating. If it was actual a chink hated you'd have WAY more evidence of it it even being real in the first place instead of this already debunked shit you continue to be spamming AND you'd be attacking other companies for having chinese investment but I know you it's something else because this concentrated autism is solely only targeting this game,
meds, asap
Don't think Zenimax isn't above hiring people to astroturf. There are 4+ distinct spammers posting here at the moment and they're all fanatically promoting Starfield.
meds take them now
Your comments have no effect. Maybe try 'you have to be white to like Starfield' for the 500th time:
lmfao what?
/v/tr00ns malding
>the fix is in
Thank god YES. I unironically hope that GOTY is rigged to let TOTK win just to see Gankerirgins seethe for another 6 years (until the next zelda game comes out)
why should I give a fuck about a game made by trannies? so many fucking bots on here it puts reddit to shame
It really doesn't matter, the game with the most organic attention usually ends up winning GOTY. People stopped talking about TotK a week after it came out whereas BG3 discussion isn't slowing down at all.
literally no one is talking about bear gay sex after starfield release anon
Eh there's about the same number of threads as Starfield, which has more of a chance winning GOTY than TotK btw
grandeur delusions of chudiedos
>People stopped talking about TotK a week after it came out
Did this happen outside of Ganker.org's video game's board? Because here there were threads for months.
Nta but there were barely videos or zoomers talking about it. Meanwhile bg3 brought new attention to crpg
live by the review score, die by the review score
Anon, BG3 just netted a few 9s and dropped.
Seethe more BGchud
Yes yes, let's ignore the obvious shill websites with the brands name in their fucking name!
Nintendo Life
Nintenduo
Nintenderos
Nintendo Insider
My Nintendo News
Switch Player
Nintendo World Report.
Nintendojo
And let's not forget THE most obvious Nintendo shills in existence, Edge Magazine, although they are more like that subset of Tednies that seeth when anything anime is shown or when it's a game that doesn't have Nintendo's usual personality voided characters like Mario, Link, Samus and Donkey Kong.
Honestly, if you want to see what game will appeal to you, you should avoid any and all reviews and just watch raw uncomentated gameplay.
Why do metacritic include these publications in their scores? Like do they not see there might be a bit of bias?
Who knows, they'll say it's an aggregate website and they're just doing that since these websites are run by different people, and also lest you forget they least every damn IGN regions reviews like they matter or like they don't all follow stories and guidelines made by the main branch in San Francisco.
I'd say YouTube in it's early days was a decent alternative but ever since every idiot is doing it for the money instead of genuine love for the hobby is it really better?
I'm confused, what did the re-design actually do on a mathematical level?
gamers, what's our response?
we can't let them get away with this
ah sweet, a schizo thread
just in time for the game awards
the dlc slop wasnt gonna win against an actual new game so nintrooms have to resort to this new low
>a VIDEO GAME is rated higher than larian's porn VN
And all is right.
meds
now
Bg3 deserves to win goty, normies forgot about totk
why would anything chud deserves anything?

>bear gay sex brought new attention to crpg
lmfao
Almost forgot BOTW2 came out this year, lmao
Yeah I'm pretty shocked how fast people moved on from it.
Even the Nintendo youtuibers and fanboys swept it under the rug once it was clear it was a lazy rehashed assetflip.
BOTW by comparison had almost no big critics for the first 2 years.
Shut up pelican nosed homosexual
That mega boost were dungeon and dragon fatsos and c*mmiefornian tankies
seethe
This is the first time this week someone talks about the game
>needs to cheat to win against bg3

>No story
>Barren open world
>No challenge
>Garry's mod garbage

>Not a single new weapon class with a different move set
>Most bosses can be staggered in 1 arrow to the eye, then they drop to the ground for 20 seconds
>Weapon fuse with OP monster horns trivialize the game
>Like 90% of the game is optional
>No dungeons, just shrines (that have shit rewards)
>1000 korok seeds again (YAHAHA)

Is Tears of the Kingdom the worst DLC of all time?
You'd know if you played it, it's obvious to anyone that has but more fun not giving away your obvious mistakes so you keep making them.
Now user reviews aren't sorted by usefulness, the entire scoring system between user reviews has been removed, now everything is divided into positive and negative reviews, with the positive ones being the first by default
Completely ruined.
Ignoring how much this is making a mountain out of a molehill, Opencritic has its own problems. It only counts reviews for games from the 8th generation onwards for one thing, so it’s a much less wholistic picture of what games are generally considered the best by critics, which you ought not to give a fuck about but Ganker is currently obsessed with, and the way it combines reviews for all platforms can drag down an average based on a single shitty port when all others and the game itself is fine.
WHO GIVES A SHIT ABOUT FUCKING METACRITIC SCORES
nobody does, it’s used primarily for shitposting, you’re in a shitpost thread right now
Oh nooooo!
>two games have the same score
>one game has to appear above the other one because the website can't assign two games to one position
>people are willing to fight over which one should be on top of the other
This is crazy, it's like quantifying a game's quality with a number is fucking retarded or something
noncetendo does it again
>3 Rockstar games in the top 5
How did they do it?
Haven't really figured out why yet, but retards are extremely drawn to 3rd Person open world theme park games.
it's pathetic. They rate them way above what they're worth
God I fucking hate Nintendo so much it's unreal.
Nintendo games as someone whose spent his whole life on pc, have never seemed all that influential, is it just that they are normie biat?
I swear there's constantly anti-nintendo rage bait on this website to keep snoys happy
get rekt roleplayers, this is what you get for playing gay single player rpgs and abandonning real roleplaying games like ultima online
Reminder that Sonyfags have latched on to Baldurs Gate as theirs
>eric melting down because he can't spam BG3 vs TotK metacritic threads anymore
love to see it
Why do you retards even care about what some site says as the aggregated review score anyway?
how do you know the redesign was made specifically for totk?
it went from #45 to #15 retard
Genshin is still the better game.
holy schizoism
couldn't expect less from snoypedos
TotK is the GOTYAY. Absolute masterpiece.
>TotK is the GOTYAY. Absolute masterpiece.
It's trendy for the internet fags to hate on nintendo. I've learned through the years that if everyone is yelling that something is bad when you see you obvious reasons for it then it must be pretty fuckin good.
>tendie coping
Tendies are the ones who raid other threads the most to doompost
Im ok with this, i mean, BG3 is fucking garbage, rarely i've seen a more blatantly shilled game before. A game based on reading and listening dialogues and rolling dice with that high score is a fucking joke
Fucking this. I have no idea how anyone can play BG3 and pretend they're having fun. Jesus Christ just read a fucking book.
The combat is a slog too.
Nuzelda is dlc shit but it is an actual game with fun gameplay so it's better than chud gate 3.
BG3 is coming to Xbox snoy.
Yeah, once they figure out how to get it running within the hardware limitations and not causing the console to burst into flames.
so no xbox release?
thank god the devs werent retarded to bring it to both consoles
fcking stupid how the shitbox is holding games down
gay bears in suicide watch
>never let anyone tell you Tendie Bonus isn't real
Every single person who isn't a Nintendo dickrider or shill knows this already, they can make the same exact 10 times in a row and get higher scores and get away with performance issues while half the industry would get grilled for it.
>and get away with performance issues
TotK is more polished than any AAA game this year. Imagine any other developer trying to make a game as complex as TotK and think about how much of a complete broken unplayable mess it would be.
yeah because it's the same game as 2017 and it'd be borderline shameless even for Nintendo standards if it still had issues
meanwhile
>fps drops to under 15
>pop-ins everywhere
>frame stutter at times
>textures wont load
here comes to part where you say all that is fine and allowed because it's still running on a mobile chip, I cannot wait for the third open world Zelda game to look exactly the same on the new powerful switch when RDR2 was made on the same exact hardware and it will still get a pass because it's Zelda
You sound irrationally upset. TotK is one of the best video games I have ever played on any system. Nintendo are running rings around every other developer using tech from two generations ago, barely bigger than my phone.
Same exact game made by Sony but it isn't called Zelda and it wouldn't get more than an average 8.
It isn't the exact same game lmao. We get it, you're seething.
>It isn't the exact same game lmao.
You might as well post screenshots of Mario going down pipes and claiming they're the same game.
We get it, you're seething.
Realistically all that would change is that people who don't like it would be slightly less anal about it
You guys are fucking pathetic, who the fuck cares about this shit?
Reviews from fan sites and reviews that are clearly done to only to lower scores should never count in any context
LOL
Best not be talking shit about Marble It Up! Ultra.
Thank God a Nintendofag works at metacritic.
they truly are the best website for ranking games.
