What can be done about reviewbombing?
>>
Make better games
>>
I simply do not give a shit

>>721907954
But they made it: Hades 2 is the better game.
>>
>>721907892
i simply read tge reviews with my actual eyes instead of just oohing and aahing over a single averaged number. between all the ones that are just chinamen sperging out over chinaman shit, political spergfights and "funny" reviews there's some actually talking about shit in the game that make me go "i do like/dislike when games do that actually" and helps me decide if i'm interested.

Make people unable to give negative reviews
Review must be a 10 or you are reviewbombing
Alternatively, kill yourself
>>
>>721908303
Why would I do that? Half the time, they're right. Everything you posted paid for positive reviews.
>>
Maybe people are mad at Nintendo?
Maybe people are annoyed with the fact that Hades 2 is a timed console exclusive?

Review bombing taught me to ignore reviews and form my own opinion. Enough spoiler free gameplay footage to decide whether it's worth a try, then try it and see what I think. All else is irrelevant.

What you're showing there isn't reviewbombing. "10 or 0" is a symptom of the badly designed Metacritic system that averages review scores. In a system like that, picking any score other than 10 or 0 minimizes your "voting power" over the average.

just disable user reviews, they're never worthwhile anyway, just retards sharting out 0s and 10s depending on whether they wanna reviewbomb or are fanboying. User Reviews are proof that retard NPCs shouldn't be allowed an opinion.

Nothing, as long as it remains a means to sway the decisions of others, there will be those wanting to game it to control what people do. Whether by a billion chinks making every game look bad except for their own or developers paying for good reviews to trick buyers into going past the refund window.

Remove the rating aggregated from all reviews I guess so there's less incentive to manipulate it.

It pisses off every industry analyst.
>It is not a giant, sprawling AAA game filled with celebrities
>It's a turn based RPG. aot a Action RPG, not a Souls Like. Not a over the shoulder walking and talking simulator
>It is not designed with the idea of selling the movie/show rights like GoW and TLoU
>It is not a Live Service with planned endless monetization
>It is a Indie game that is not pixel slop nor is it a "game" that is about wallowing in mental illness and pushing far left ideals
>It's a western game. Not from China, not from South Korea. Not even from Japan. It's fucking French.

Yet some how, it was a giant success. It went against everything they've been pushing.

Firstly, reviews shouldn't include a number and should be based off a meaningful text description. This helps to force people to hopefully come up with meaningful text instead of a simple number and equivalently to have to put effort in to engage with the review. Also avoids problems with bimodal distributions of scores that get averaged into a meaningless single average number.

Secondly, want to post a review? You have to pay real money. Don't think your review is worth paying for other people to read? Good, thanks for filtering your own shitty opinion out.

We can keep to the old Edge-style system of 'recommended', 'essential', etc. for the people that still literally can't be bothered.
>>
>>721907892
Make scores from accounts with less than 50 games rated not have any weight
>>
>woke game flops
is it Tuesday already?
>>
>>721907892
Unless something kind of invasive is done like forced account linking, for example, I'm not sure how. You very well can't just deny people the ability to criticize a game and AI would create false positives and cause the score to be just as unreliable. Maybe some sort of system that detects your preferred platform so that reviewers on different platforms can be filtered out of score results? That's not perfect either though.
>>
>>721917510
>Secondly, want to post a review? You have to pay real money.

Good job making the only reviews the paid shill ones. Your site would show literally every review as a 10/10.
>>
>>721918459
> Your site would show literally every review as a 10/10

That's IGN, and everyone knows to avoid it anyway so there's no problem.

I'm not extorting people, I'm just asking how much you think your opinion is worth posting, before it gets to see the light of day. Is it a $1 opinion? $5? $10? Oh yes, and the amount spent has to be declared and is an un-editable part of the review. This is the only way to force honest signals from people.
>>
Who is doing the review bombing this time? the chuds or just the chinks as usual?

If you rate all games either 0 or 10, you're a braindead monkey.

There have been plenty of competitions that have solved the "extremists retards get to vote too!" problem, and that is to remove a percentage from the top and the bottom score for the counting of the total average.

But that would remove all of those inflated 10s a bunch of shitty games dont deserve so they dont do that.
>>
>>721924310
>"extremists retards get to vote
so you're telling me you disregard votes from people who give the game anything lower than a 3?
you're a fucking retard. all this does is make 3.1 the new 0
it's just like journo reviews, where anything below 75/100 is effectively 0 (because any journo that gives a 70 or lower gets blacklisted)
>>
>>721907954
Make better posts.
>>
>>721925084
No you fucking troglodyte, do you not know what a percentage is? Or did you really think i suggesting on removing the actual numbers and not the individual votes on the top and bottom? How fucking dumb do you have to be?
>>
>>721927284
you're not using any criteria. all you're doing is punishing people who don't have milquetoast opinions
all your stupid method will do is cause people to give games a 2 or 3 so their votes won't be excluded, because 50 ratings of 3 are much more impactful than 10 ratings of 1
>>
>>721927574
>all you're doing is punishing people who don't have milquetoast opinions
You mean retards with no nuance? Because thats what needs to be filtered yes.

If you remove say, 10% of each side, you get rid of most
>OMG I CAN PET DOGS, 10/10 BEST GAME EVER!!!!!!!
>OMG THESE TEXTURES SUCK 0/10 FUCK THIS SHIT!!!!!
Which are worthless people who dont deserve a voice in the first place, leaving people who actually have real opinions on it.
>>
>>721927964
>yeeeeeees goy, people can't ever give a 0/10
how about you learn to filter bots instead
>>
>>721928970
People can very well post a 0/10, and if the number of zeros surpasses the filter threshold they will even count to the average total score, but if they dont then they dont count, just like fraudulent 10s.

>how about you learn to filter bots instead
What makes this idiot >>721907892 any more of a bot than a guy who just posts zeros and tens just the same?
