745900, Do you still pay attention to audience review scores?
Posted by Backbone, Thu Aug-25-22 11:42 AM
I.e. the IMDb or Metacritic user scores.

I feel there was a point in history where they generally reflected the broader audience's reception, but nowadays it feels like every movie, series or game gets downvoted to oblivion for being "woke" unless it's clearly pandering to the eternally online anti-woke asshole contingent.

I'm starting to think user reviews should go the way of unmoderated comment sections under news articles. And I should know better than to read that shit in the first place, I know.
