I don't think that is very accurate, in my experience the most popular reviews are Personality Driven and it is largely done in the youtube space, the next most popular writen sites are also more neutral when it comes to their reviews (Gamespot, IGN, Gameinformer, Eurogamer). Honestly people just want two things, to hear their favorite content creator talk about the game or have someone say how great it is. But in... - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago
Check out the hall of fame at https://opencritic.com/ instead - no remakes/remasters/ports allowed, so it's all new games (ignoring Trails to Azure, though it's being released worldwide for the first time). Source: about 1 year ago
Am I the only one that finds Opencritic to be much better at visualizing the reviews? Source: about 1 year ago

Metacritic blows. Rotten tomatoes isn't the best but it's much better than Metacritic for TV and movies and Opencritic is a million times better for video games. Source: over 1 year ago
I can only think of OpenCritic. But that only focuses on games, so no such luck for movies, shows, and music. Source: over 1 year ago
I use opencritic which is more reliable: Https://opencritic.com/. Source: over 1 year ago
Https://opencritic.com is miles better. I’ve been donating to them for a while now. Source: almost 2 years ago
/u/threecatsstaring recommend using https://opencritic.com/ since it unifies scoring on all platforms. Source: almost 2 years ago
I really, really, really wish Metacritic would catch on fire. Though hardly better, I would still prefer people use Opencritic anyway, though their major flaw is not having user reviewers, but they're completely useless too as anything more than a litmus test for how the vocal minority is currently feeling about something, and usually a specific thing rather than the game itself..

There's Opencritic but seems like it doesn't allow for user reviews. I agree in this state Metacritic is almost unusable for user reviews also given the potential waste of time because of these nonsense errors. Source: almost 2 years ago
I agree, take your pick, all 100 plus say the same thing. https://opencritic.com/. Source: about 2 years ago
Where is the bar for good? 95% of critics recommended it and the campaign is at 79% positive on steam. You are being either unrealistic or biased. Source: about 2 years ago
The ratings are from https://opencritic.com/. Do you have any problem loading that site? Source: over 2 years ago
The reviews on Steam are terrible. I tend to use OpenCritic to check reviews. Source: over 2 years ago
More generally, many of the sites linked on OpenCritic are decent, as they need to meet a certain level of professionalism and acknowledgement to be on there. Source: over 2 years ago
I have bought a fair few games this year. But do I feel like I got my money's worth on any of them? No not really. 2021 has sucked incredibly hard in terms of game releases. Some would argue that reviews aren't everything, but if you take a look at https://opencritic.com/ and sort by 2021 releases - only 1 game has been reviewed with a metascore of over 90 and that game is a remaster of an old game (Quake).

There's /r/gamesuggestions as well as http://opencritic.com and many, many, many gaming subreddits, including this one. Source: almost 3 years ago
