That seems like a standard reviewing to me. Now go look at The Last of Us Part 2, now that game is truly review bombed.
I dunno, TLoU2 definitely got it harder but there’s still that massive gap in middle range reviews (see image) that made me question it with Starfield.
It’s because it’s Metacritic, people only rate in 10s and 0s. Look at Baldurs Gate even. It’s 75/2/21 split.
Regardless, People diss on pro journal reviews, but user reviews are 100x worse, I have never relied on them except for Steam Reviews.
