loafy013 11/08/23 6:41:10 PM #24:	Grouped review scores are worthless IMO. I find it better to find a reviewer who seems to have a similar taste as you and how they like it. For example, FO76 got so much hate when it came out for various reasons. But one of the LP'ers I watch seemed to be having a blast with it and put like 50 hours of so of play up on youtube. So I gave it a shot and had a lot of fun with it myself. Just going of general review scores, I never would have found a game that I ended up sinking about 200 hours into before moving on to something else. --- The ball is round, the game lasts 90 minutes.
