Is Starfield Being Review Bombed? Plus It Reaches 6 MILLION Players!

Starfield's user reviews are rolling in from Metacritic and they aren't that great. However, they don't seem to be aligning with the user reviews from Steam...

Seems kind of like the game is just suffering from reactionaries, but I definitely don’t put that much stock in critic reviews these days either.

I dunno, TLoU2 definitely got it harder but there’s still that massive gap in middle range reviews (see image) that made me question it with Starfield.

It’s because it’s Metacritic, people only rate in 10s and 0s. Look at Baldurs Gate even. It’s 75/2/21 split.

Regardless, People diss on pro journal reviews, but user reviews are 100x worse, I have never relied on them except for Steam Reviews.
