In 99% of the situations, i couldn’t care less what the metacritic score is. Reviewers can be paid, publications can be biased and/or tired, and in general, a lot of the scores don’t actually represent how real players feel.
This is especially obvious, when reviewing longer games, or specifically MMOs. You cannot rank that after playing for 10 hours.
My first stop for reviews is always my friends. Based on their general recommendations, i frequently find incredibly fun games, that are otherwise unimpressive at first glance
Very few games do. So few that the ones that hold a high player base or even grow are anomalies. This one is making strange moves like being a fighting game that, at least at launch, can’t be played offline and costs $240 to stock with every character for local tournaments.
