I have a suspicion that they don't dare to give anything other than perfect scores in fear of mass backlash. Fromsoft games but especially Elden Ring have become the darling of the industry you are not allowed to criticize. Or any criticism is handwaved with "git good"

A certain group of gamers think it is the perfect model of what a game should be, 99% gameplay and barely anything else. And I don't like that at all.

Yeah, for some f*cking reason I can't even begin to fathom.

I'm gonna pretend I didn't read this, and that people like that don't actually exist. It's better for both my mental and physical health.

They can have those, as long as I can have what I like.

Still don't agree on the high scores and all the goty awards they won for something so lackluster but whatever.
