9. Finally, your experience is valid! So is everyone else's. A review serves to provide a perspective to help you decide how to spend time/$. If you disagree, cool! Shout it from the rooftops, tell your friends and evangelize. Just... don't attack others because they disagree — PolitiTweet.org

8. There is beauty in a "7 out of 10" game, especially if you're a big fan of the IP or genre! I personally love any game that tries something new, even if it's not perfect. Hell, I liked Cyberpunk at launch -- but I also had a good PC experience https://t.co/6lWNfjDdY0 — PolitiTweet.org

7. If you've ever read a review and were like, "okay, that all makes sense but that still doesn't sound like a 5/10 to me"... great! I feel that way all the time. It's the details of the review that really help me know if it's worth my time and money. — PolitiTweet.org

(Spoiler: I hate review scores. There's a reason we dropped them at Polygon, it distracts from reading anything. "Game is a 7" says nothing-neither does "story is 7 / combat 3 / menu 5..." blah blah. The sum of parts is what matters, and even w/1000 words it's hard to convey) — PolitiTweet.org

6. Metacritic is a weighted average, but it's still an imperfect catch-all number. Even the quantity of outlets / writers who review a game can dramatically impact that number, and there's no simple formula like "one IGN score = 3 fan site scores" https://t.co/ZKWUZRj372 — PolitiTweet.org

5. Similarly, long-term updates can dramatically change a game over time. Some "underappreciated gems" feel different years later bc they *are* different. Obv examples are No Man's Sky and CP2077, but it's true of games like Days Gone! — PolitiTweet.org

4. Standards go up over time! "Similar game got a higher score 2 years ago" - true! But now that Similar Game exists and everyone can learn from Similar Game, so now we should all expect more. — PolitiTweet.org
Ross Miller may or may not be notable @ohnorosco
3. Tech issues notwithstanding, reviewers have different personal preferences! Even within a publication, who reviews the game can impact the verdict. It's not economically feasible to, say, have a panel of ppl w/different POVs all weighing in. For many reasons, it ain't worth it — PolitiTweet.org
Ross Miller may or may not be notable @ohnorosco
2. Yes, publishers sometimes provide heads up about what a day 1 patch might fix. Reviewers may factor that in BUT what's promised and what's delivered can vary wildly. It'd be a disservice for people paying money to entirely judge something based on promises — PolitiTweet.org

1. Reviews cover a single moment for an evolving product. Whatever "build" someone gets is the product. It's much different than reviewing movies and TV for that reason, and yes, it's a tricky debate that I don't have time to wade into. But I wanted to call that out first! — PolitiTweet.org

@DaveThier When you spend 10 minutes modifying a speedrun .com page for "UK Prime Minister Any% single tenure no warp" to rank the top 5 and your Chrome browser accidentally refreshes and you lose all your progress 😭 Well, at least I've learned a lot of historical trivia along the way — PolitiTweet.org

TO BE FAIR, this isn't the shortest tenure for a British Prime Minister. Looking at you, 1st Duke of Wellington Arthur Wellesley and your 23 days Nov-Dec 1834 ...of course he also served for almost 3 years starting in 1828, so in aggregate, yeah, I think this is a new record? 🥗 — PolitiTweet.org

@landongn 1. PLEASE send me nonsense! 2. When I "beat" the game it was a top-10 GOTY. Then I decided to try and get more trophies. I don't think I hate the answers. I think I just hated them spelled out in detailed monologue-ing. Let the community fill that in and feel some ownership!🕵️♂️📦 — PolitiTweet.org

Something tells me Apple is not gonna be congenial about this one. When Netflix did its "let's be on everything with a screen" thing, it was (1) ludicrously successful for Netflix and (2) not directly competing with a successful line of business for Apple (at the time at least) — PolitiTweet.org
