Doesn't really mean anything. The worst garbage in the world gets 10/10 from those places.

Reviews from news outlets and journalists are always worthless. If only, the game getting such good scores is a red flag on itself.

your favorite youtubers who have the same tastes as you love it, it means the game is good

RPS liked the game, too. In the end, the trick is to find reviewers who share your taste in games, There are enough outlets and YouTubers that anyone can find someone who has the same gaming preferences. For me, it's often RPS, and individual reviewers like Tom Chick. Tom's reviews of strategy games, for example, have never once let me down, over many years.

Everyone who played before everyone else seemed to enjoy it,

so much so that some have played for over 100 hours.

Who's giving it a 7, someone who doesn't even play turn-based RPGs? Not even IGN gave in to their instinctual need to hand out 7s, giving it a 9 lol

Because you didn't bother to read the ******* review, which is pretty normal at this point sadly. Considering it's a review that commented on things I've been concerned about with this game, that being the stapled on paper mario mechanics onto the turn based system, slimmed down equipment and things to streamline it possibly too hard, as well as a possible 20ish hour run for a game costing 50ish bucks?
Forgive me, but I do have some degree of a standard when it comes to the genres I love in gaming, and this one may not be hitting it. I'll take further looks at it after it releases and possibly wait for a sale so I can enjoy it with more reasonable expectations that didn't cost me as much.

I will concede I didn't read it, yes. I was just teasing, which, admittedly, is hard to gauge tonally from a written post on the internet. Didn't need to be jabbed with the implication that I don't have standards, though.

Either-way, the vast majority of reviews wouldn't agree with those assessments at all. Neither of us have the game to verify ourselves, certainly. However, the developers, reviews, and the evidence from public Steam profiles suggest the game is not a 20 hour run.

Yeah, that's some solid scores, I don't much care for the score of most of those review sites, but, even people I trust seem to enjoy it.

[Brocknoth]

The numbers are meaningless. Read what is written/listen to what is said. Look for commonality between both positive and negative. That is how you find the "true" review of a game.
