I just made a rough graph of Ulti's review scores. literally obsessed lol yeah I was bored at night and figured I would kill some time by looking at this figured someone would say this UltimaterializerX posted... Solioxrz362 posted... The results should speak for themselves. My scores are well rounded and I mostly play games I like? Why I never. As I said, it doesn't surprise me you have way more positive scores, and that's because of this exact reason. I can think of far more games I like than I can games I don't, simply because I tend to stay away from games I don't think will be fun, and that helps me usually stick to good games. But I think anyone can see your scores aren't exactly well rounded. Out of 190+ reviews, you only have five 5 scores and nine 6 scores. You have more games listed as unplayable than you do any individual score in the 3-6 range, and a number of those are games that are at least well-liked. Somehow, you have twice as many perfect scores than you do any other individual score except for 9. That simply shouts extreme. A "well-rounded" score distribution sounds more like a bell curve, and I think a mode around 6 or 7 makes more sense than 10. Your J-curve distribution simply isn't well-rounded at all. I take games like Ride to Hell: Retribution or Big Rigs to be worthy of the 1 score, probably not RE6. Even if you think it sucks, it's more likely worthy of a 3 or 4 than a 1. Does "I find maybe two or three positives in this entire game" really equate to "unplayable garbage"? I wouldn't think so. Take this as constructive criticism though! I'm not trying to say you're incapable of writing anything more than shit, I'm saying you lose some credibility because of how extreme your writing and your scores are. People are less likely to enjoy or trust your reviews if they run into you saying Warcraft 3: Frozen Throne is unplayable and the literal worst game ever even though the majority opinion is that its good (they'll think, wow this guy is probably just being really unfair to this game), or if they see that you gave almost a quarter of all the games you've reviewed a perfect score (they'll think, is it really that easy to get this guy to give a 10/10 to a game?). I haven't read most of your reviews - then I'd really be literally obsessed - but I have read at least one that I thought wasn't bad. A lot of your reviews just fall victim to the same issues. --- Got a brand new blues that I can't explain <cite>Solioxrz362 posted [p:893032104] in how bad is...
