Message: [QUOTE="TrashChamp, post: 219162, member: 6042"] Nope. Not at all. If I hear someone complaining about a game it certainly doesn't make me want to check it out but I've learned that I don't agree with the critical consensus most of the time. I'm actually more suspicious of games that review very well, since I find they have huge flaws critics ignore or simple unchallenging gameplay. Where as when i play a game that has middling or bad reviews I don't know what the hell I'm getting. I could find something to laugh at for 20 minutes before turning off, or maybe my new favorite game. It also means more games are open to playing. I have a similar attitude with movies and tv shows as well, so I can always find something I'm at least a little bit interested in checking out. If I had listened to critics without checking something out myself I would have missed out on my personal favorite game of 2023, Wanted:Dead. That game has big time flaws but its also a really enjoyable action game that feels like it was made by genuine people instead of executives. [/QUOTE]
