isn't the end all be all obviously yeah isn't the end all be all obviously yeah VG mobster says Metacritic isn't the VG mobster says Metacritic isn't the VG mobster says Metacritic isn't the end-all be-all and it isn't it isn't end-all be-all and it isn't it isn't end-all be-all and it isn't it isn't that is what I was saying in my other that is what I was saying in my other that is what I was saying in my other Metacritic video about tears of the Metacritic video about tears of the Metacritic video about tears of the Kingdom why does anyone care about the Kingdom why does anyone care about the Kingdom why does anyone care about the score yes like why why does this even score yes like why why does this even score yes like why why does this even need to be said it's very Petty it's need to be said it's very Petty it's need to be said it's very Petty it's very silly there's an overreaction on very silly there's an overreaction on very silly there's an overreaction on this however the game seems to be that this however the game seems to be that this however the game seems to be that good I just don't like the comparison in good I just don't like the comparison in good I just don't like the comparison in many instances from people who are quick many instances from people who are quick many instances from people who are quick to judge Walter's Gate 3 reviews are to judge Walter's Gate 3 reviews are to judge Walter's Gate 3 reviews are glowing and it seems that it will remain glowing and it seems that it will remain glowing and it seems that it will remain near 95 but that doesn't distract from near 95 but that doesn't distract from near 95 but that doesn't distract from tears of the kingdom it does not these tears of the kingdom it does not these tears of the kingdom it does not these are both W's these are both wins for are both W's these are both wins for are both W's these are both wins for Nintendo and for Baldur's Gate 3's Nintendo and for Baldur's Gate 3's Nintendo and for Baldur's Gate 3's developers so yeah let's look at some developers so yeah let's look at some developers so yeah let's look at some more stuff and I want to highlight some more stuff and I want to highlight some more stuff and I want to highlight some other people's responses let's look at other people's responses let's look at other people's responses let's look at Mr siren gaming here also check out his Mr siren gaming here also check out his Mr siren gaming here also check out his channel very very awesome content we channel very very awesome content we channel very very awesome content we yeah so he quote tweeted me over here yeah so he quote tweeted me over here yeah so he quote tweeted me over here and he said this we sound like haters and he said this we sound like haters and he said this we sound like haters but when one has literally 10 times as but when one has literally 10 times as but when one has literally 10 times as many reviews with the same high score I many reviews with the same high score I many reviews with the same high score I just want people to realize how crazy just want people to realize how crazy just want people to realize how crazy this all sounds this is not a very like this all sounds this is not a very like this all sounds this is not a very like good look it's a very silly argument good look it's a very silly argument good look it's a very silly argument like all of this did you really pray for like all of this did you really pray for like all of this did you really pray for Nintendo's downfall because this isn't Nintendo's downfall because this isn't Nintendo's downfall because this isn't this this isn't a downfall a game really this this isn't a downfall a game really this this isn't a downfall a game really a game review higher than a Nintendo a game review higher than a Nintendo a game review higher than a Nintendo game it's not a downfall and again when game it's not a downfall and again when game it's not a downfall and again when it comes to Game of the Year most games it comes to Game of the Year most games it comes to Game of the Year most games that win game of the year maybe may not

really like it's not a indication of the really like it's not a indication of the quality of future redeemed but even quality of future redeemed but even quality of future redeemed but even though future redeemed is very good it though future redeemed is very good it though future redeemed is very good it is on par if not even better than tears is on par if not even better than tears is on par if not even better than tears of the kingdom and Xenoblade Chronicles of the kingdom and Xenoblade Chronicles of the kingdom and Xenoblade Chronicles 3's base game but again like 12 credit 3's base game but again like 12 credit 3's base game but again like 12 credit 12 Critic reviews isn't much to go off 12 Critic reviews isn't much to go off 12 Critic reviews isn't much to go off of but here is my buddy Luna Tunes of but here is my buddy Luna Tunes of but here is my buddy Luna Tunes here's what he has to say about this is here's what he has to say about this is here's what he has to say about this is this a reference to Baldur's Gate this a reference to Baldur's Gate this a reference to Baldur's Gate because I think this game is getting so because I think this game is getting so because I think this game is getting so much attention because eight times much attention because eight times much attention because eight times selling because it's selling times it's selling because it's selling times it's selling because it's selling times it's expected amount plus the high Metacritic expected amount plus the high Metacritic expected amount plus the high Metacritic score on top of it Boulders game score on top of it Boulders game score on top of it Boulders game performing this well is very unexpected performing this well is very unexpected performing this well is very unexpected and therefore exciting I 100 agree yeah and therefore exciting I 100 agree yeah and therefore exciting I 100 agree yeah and I responded by saying yeah I just and I responded by saying yeah I just and I responded by saying yeah I just don't like people trashing on other don't like people trashing on other don't like people trashing on other games to elevate their success or their games to elevate their success or their games to elevate their success or their win and Looney Tunes of course just says win and Looney Tunes of course just says win and Looney Tunes of course just says just sounds like some Fanboy girls just sounds like some Fanboy girls just sounds like some Fanboy girls partaking in console war partaking in console war partaking in console war yep holds no real value but my point is yep holds no real value but my point is yep holds no real value but my point is we should celebrate wins we should we should celebrate wins we should we should celebrate wins we should celebrate successes we should celebrate celebrate successes we should celebrate celebrate successes we should celebrate achievements in games we shouldn't say achievements in games we shouldn't say achievements in games we shouldn't say oh my game reviewed higher than yours my oh my game reviewed higher than yours my oh my game reviewed higher than yours my game is better than yours because it game is better than yours because it game is better than yours because it sold this many copies or that many sold this many copies or that many sold this many copies or that many copies because my game of the year last copies because my game of the year last copies because my game of the year last year was a game that didn't even hit 2 year was a game that didn't even hit 2 year was a game that didn't even hit 2 million copies it was Xenoblade million copies it was Xenoblade million copies it was Xenoblade Chronicles 3 which still has not even Chronicles 3 which still has not even Chronicles 3 which still has not even reportedly hit 2 million copies but it reportedly hit 2 million copies but it reportedly hit 2 million copies but it was my game of the year I was happy to was my game of the year I was happy to was my game of the year I was happy to see its name be announced on stage I was see its name be announced on stage I was see its name be announced on stage I was happy to see its music being performed

Summary
This video discusses the topic of Metacritic scores and how the success of one game, like Tears of the Kingdom, should not be used to disparage another highly-rated game, such as Baldur's Gate 3. The practical takeaway is that consumers and gamers should appreciate the success of individual titles without creating division or negativity.
