    See. I need this kind of person to do game reviews. Not gushing. Not hating. Not analyzing from industry knowledge. Like a guy who says the game is “meh” and spends 15 minutes giving us the concise reasons that the game was not to his tastes.

      BG3 fanboys will tell you all about its 96% positive rating, as if disliking the game makes you wrong. It has an audience and I’m sure they love it,but there’s plenty of people who didn’t like it and many more who skipped it entirely.

        I’m sure there are as many idiotic fanboys of BG3 as there are of anything else, but a more reasonable perspective is “this is a very good example of a CRPG, so if you’ve never tried one, it makes a good place to start to see if you’d like the genre.” Reviews are never going to be able to predict whether you, personally, will enjoy the thing. They can only try to arm you with information to make your own decision.
