    I really think that normies are psychologically incapable of judging or even noticing quality. video games are just mindless entertainment they buy to not feel bored for a while, and as long as it works for that they don’t care.

      I almost feel like I’m back on /r/gamingcirclejerk with this type of perspective.

      An old friend of mine aptly noted that your average idiot will rate practically anything four to five stars, no matter how mediocre, as long as it was distracting enough.

        Your friend is talking about a former buddy of mine.

        He was incapable of critically judging any film or show he’s watched. Everything was the greatest movie he’s seen.

        Here’s an example of just how bad. The new transformers, Angry Birds & Tokyo Drift were as good to him as Pulp Fiction, Toy Story & Inception.
