Anthem fans are triggered by the low Metacritic score

Anthem fans are upset because the Metacritic score for Anthem is around 60%. I don't mean just one review like that awful GameSpot review of Destiny that gave it a lower score than Murdered: Soul Suspect. I mean the average of all reviews so far are 61% with no sign of climbing. Fans feel bad and are antagonist towards all game media. I have a solution: a Metacritic for the fans. All games with fans will have a 100 Metacritic score. Are there fans of Rock Revolution? Probably one or two so it gets a 100 Metacritic score! Does anyone like Aliens: Colonial Marines? You bet, 100! Fallout '76? Someone is playing it, so also 100. Knack? If we could go above 100, we would. Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 5? Top of the leaderboard with 100. Anthem? Of course it gets 100. I'll send details of my Kickstarter just as soon as I can secure the rights to the Metacritic name.

    Can anyone name me a “live service” looter shooter that didn’t launch broken? Having played a fair bit of anthem now I would tend to agree with the reviews. I would give it a 7/10. The core gameplay is fun and the story is pretty good. But there’s just too many quality of life things that bring the game down. I don’t actually think it’s that far off being a really decent game. Fix the bugs, add some new features, fix some existing ones and add some more content. Honestly though I think gamers are tired of games releasing in an unfinished state. It’s really disrespectful to the consumer to expect someone to buy an unfinished product. If it’s not finished don’t sell it. What other product does that?
