The Metacritic Prediction Thread

Published on October 18, 2012 By Mmrnmhrm In Fallen Enchantress

It looks like Fallen Enchantress is ready for release. I don't know what differences there are between 0.99 and 1.0 yet but it's probably safe to pass judgment.

So.....

What do you think the Metacritic average of Fallen Enchantress will be by December 1, 2012? Put in your guesses.

Here are some recent game releases to compare to.....

Dishonored 91

XCOM 89

Borderlands 2 89

Torchlight II 89

Transformers: Fall of Cyberton 79

Prototype 2 76

The Sims Super Natural 71

Retro City Rampge 70

I think 75-79. Mainly due to lack of polish, otherwise 80-89.

Hey, someone had to do it.

EDIT:
The OP states December 1st as the date, so the jury's not out yet, but at least there's finally an official score.

Tip for people reading user scores on Metacritics.

1) Ignore all 0 votes

2) Ignore all 10 votes.

Everything in between should be accurate.

A second tip for people looking at metacritic scores:

The 'pro' reviewers are tracked to see if they are over or under the 'final' score. So you can see how far off they usually are from the average and weight their opinion based upon that. Ie, a reviewer that's 10+ points above/below, on average of their reviews vs. the scores, isn't worth listening to at all. Same with their 'averaged' score that they give. If it's above 75, then they haven't been reviewing enough games (or stick to just AAA games that everyone likes - which also means that they aren't worth listening to).
