![]() They're usually what makes or breaks a game. If I want more text, I quickly scan through maybe a dozen reviews and look for dominant topics. I don't care about individual reviews as much as the general "vibe". A million people voting "0" and "10" might result in an "7.5". Other interesting words, "problems" 242, "boring" 214, "friends" 198, "offline" 190, "disappointed" 150, "terrible" 145, "amazing" 123, "awesome" 117, "Torchlight" 102, "repetitive" 85.īefore you'll hit "downvote" (fair enough), let me explain why… but, to me, user scores are pretty much the only thing I look at on Metacritic.ġ) Even respected reviewing sites like rate on a binary scale ("rotten" or "fresh"). For comparison, "graphics" shows up 513 times and "gameplay" a mere 420 times. Apparently, lots of reviews spend time critiquing the "people" behind other reviews ("people who gave it zero", "people who get angry that" etc). I noticed that "people" shows up frequently, over 700 times. Word frequency in the user reviews are fairly interesting. For contrast, the critic scores are 88/4/1 positive/mixed/negative with an average score of 88. That's an average score of 3.7 with over 50% being negative. The result is amusing: Metacritic - Diablo III - Userscores I scraped some data from Metacritic recently and decided to see what the userscores for Diablo III look like based on your post. /r/GamePhysics - Clips of game physics shining and glitchingĭesign based on /r/FlatBlue created by /u/creesch./r/gaming4gamers - middle ground between purely-for-fun and more serious subreddits./r/GamingLeaksAndRumours - Leaks and Rumors.Posting unmarked spoilers will result in removal and warning, and posting spoilers with malicious intent will result in a ban.
