Yeah it’s a bizarre choice. I’d bet the actual developers of the game were not the same people that made the choice to charge money for the game.

Interesting. I guess I am curious if others find review threads useful? Generally I agree with you, I don’t care that much about most individual reviews. However, I find the aggregators useful as a way of taking the temperature on how critics feel about a new release. The threads also make a good place to focus discussion around specific games. However, most of these threads get zero comments unless the game is hotly anticipated.

i recently discovered that OpenCritic has been acquired by Valnet, who also owns some of the trashier websites listed on OpenCritic, so I would really love to move back over to Metacritic since they seem to do a better job of filtering out low-quality critics. If anyone knows a way to create review threads like this using Metacritic, please let me know!

Thx for this tip! It’s really saving me on a specific show that I wasn’t able to find on any tracker.

this was a good reminder that my server is still on 10.3.0 and I need to update!!!

Edit: 10.10.3 lol
