You obviously don't think so. Objectively speaking though, considering the hype the game had, considering the perfect 10/10 scores it has anywhere, and taking into account the kinds of flaws it has, how can anyone say this game isn't overrated is simply laughable.And again, I say that's subjective.
The scores are, perhaps. Whether or not it is objectively overrated on the back of those scores is not.
All I've been talking about throughout this thread is games objectively. Whether or not they are overhyped and overrated, objectively.
There's always an element of subjectivity and without it we wouldn't be able to say whether or not a game is overrated. What I don't think you get though, is that I'm talking about whether or not a game is overrated on the back of that subjectivity. The game reviewers, the promotion, the fanboys. They're all subjective, but is the game as great as they all say? Yet again, I don't see how anyone can say anything but no...
You must come to a different conclusion than me. If you do, then I honestly don't think you are looking at it objectively.
Quote:Dude, reread what you said.
What I said:
"If you didn't want me to react with my opinion on the matter then you shouldn't of quoted me and chimed in with yours. Tit for tat darlin'."
What you said:
"I don't think I ever indicated that I wanted to hear only my opinion."
I'm simply telling you, don't be surprised that after you told be to 'shut my mouth' that I would have something to say about it. The fact that you got a little pissy made me say what I did there.

Yeah fair point I started to focus too much on review scores and lost track of what I was actually trying to talk about.
