> It’s a great game yet somehow has only 10% positive reviews on Steam. Or it's an objectively very bad game that you just happen to enjoy.

  It has 79% on Metacritic, which is the closest thing we have to an objective review score.

    You think critics are objective? You think they want to pan the people handing them early review codes TOO hard given that it is how they make a living? Often critics have little time to review a game, a few hours, etc... they have a ton of games to review, they'll use cheats in single player games, or play through on easy mode etc. For a game like D4 that is played at the end game, and really the big problems will only show up later in the game... There's no way a review was going to be right. Understanding what a critic can, and can not see is critical to understanding what they can tell us about a game. Personally, I give them some weight, but I've taken to waiting a bit and listening to people who love the genre speak about it. When Raxx is panning D4... it's bad. Bad enough that 79 is a WAY overrate.
