Metacritic changes user rating system after recent scandal – Gambling

news/95525/Metacritic_menyaet_sistemu_ocenok_polzovateley_posle_nedavnego_skandala.html"> Players often use user ratings on various venues like Steam and Metacritic for review bombing. And if on Steam only the owners of the game can at least do this, then on Metacritic there are no tools to regulate such “crusades”.-

However after scandal with The Last of Us: Part IIwhen the rating of the 25-hour game from users was underestimated several hours after the release, the aggregator began to change its system. –

Some new products like Catherina: Full Body Edition для Nintendo Switch и Superliminal for consoles, the rating of site visitors with a special note “Please spend some time in the game and come back to leave a review” is temporarily disabled. –



Apparently, on Metacritic you can no longer leave reviews in the first 48 hours after the release. Most likely, this will affect all future innovations.
