Title: Gate ratings. Why is game I truelly love never a 90 percenter?
Post by: Flashburn on October 11, 2012, 07:02:55 AM
I find it vary odd that everything I have truelly enjoyed in the past few years scores in hte 70 percent range.  Why are my A games rated C games.  The A rated games I usually find lacking. Ok I did enjoy the fallouts.  But way to easy even on the hardest settings.  Well except new vegas which just gave all the enemys like 2x the hit points in hardest.  That was a stupid lack of vision "hardest".  Where are my kind of game raters or does everything get rated crap unless it comes from some big pockets shovel ware game studio?

For instance, DICE.  The only game designer that designs games for players to spawn kill all over the place.  WTF?!

So, does this mean that I'm not the only one??? Wohoo!!  :D

It's interesting how many of A rated games are basically just varying clones from each other and how simple their design and function is. Of course they have beautiful graphics, "physics", quality sounds and some other nice art assets, but many times the game mechanics are way too simplified or naive to be fully enjoyed. I think it's not the A rating that spoils them, but the design from the start - after all, it's business.
