Formula for NonCriticalHit's aggregated score

Basic Scoring

Extremely Positive: 10
Generally Positive: 8
Neutral: 5
Disappointing: 3
Disaster: 1

Formula for Aggregation

Calculate the Base Score:
Total Base Score = (Number of Extremely Positive 10) + (Number of Generally Positive 8) + (Number of Neutral 5) + (Number of Disappointing 3) + (Number of Disaster * 1)

Calculate Final Score:
Final Score = (Total Base Score / Number of Reviews)

Example:

Let's say there are 15 reviews:
11 Extremely Positive
2 Generally Positive
2 Neutral
0 Disappointing
0 Disaster
Base Score Calculation:
Total Base Score = (11 x 10) + (2 x 8) + (2 x 5) + (0 x 3)+ (0 x 1) = 110 + 16 + 10 + 0 + 0 = 136
Base Average Score = 136 / 15 = 9.0

@SynthPotato @Zuby_Tech I��m curious if this is technology is something our generation gamers dislike and refuse to accept but will be normal for the next generation of gamers. Kind of like how there are people (like my parents) that still prefer reading the newspaper.

@SynthPotato They probably have PTSD from Cyberpunk. I think they will make sure the Witcher 4 is polished before release. Even if it means postponing the release date.

[NonCriticalHit @NonCriticalHit]

@SynthPotato There was a time it seemed that MMOs were going to finish off single player story based gaming. So glad that did not happen.

Blood Message combat animation looks so good! I hope it’s gameplay footage.

@RinoTheBouncer I do want Part 3 to happen

[NonCriticalHit @NonCriticalHit]

Awesome job! Congrats!

[Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 @expedition33]

We are currently the top reviewed game on @metacritic for 2025.

Speechless.

So many incredible games have been released this year.

Thank you.

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

@SynthPotato Stay safe man! Glad to hear you're alright

[NonCriticalHit @NonCriticalHit]

It's seriously so hard to start reading fantasy novels again when you have video games that have fantastic storytelling. Hard to use my imagination with books when I can see and hear with VG.

Jennifer English is on a roll. Voiced two GOTY winners - Elden Ring and BG3. Could Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 be the third?

[NonCriticalHit @NonCriticalHit]

@ReforgeGaming It's just bad grammar. They meant "gaming is cooking" and "AAA gaming is deadly".

The Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 reviews from gaming media and content creators are incredibly aligned. I haven't seen this in a long time. This might be our GOTY friends.

@LoveRetroBTW I don’t think I ever lost a game save. Am I lucky?

[NonCriticalHit @NonCriticalHit]

Bought But Didn't Play Game of the Week - Shadow of the Colossus.

Reason: There was just something about the gameplay and story that couldn't hook me in. I can't really explain it but just that I didn't enjoy it from the get go.

How about you? Name a game you bought but didn't play (< 10% of the game) and the reason why.
