How this score was computed
The VGC Score is a weighted blend on a press-comparable 0-100 quality scale. Steam approval rates are first calibrated (95% positive on Steam ≈ 89.5 quality, since Steam approval skews high). Press and tracked creator reviews each count ~2x a player review and share one cap against player evidence (creator buy/skip calls pool into an approval rate, calibrated like Steam approval); all-time sentiment is capped and halved (it's context, not verdict); reviews of the current build carry the most weight when a fresh patch anchors the window; and a 'typical game' prior keeps small samples from pegging the scale. Because press reviews and Metacritic user aggregates describe the launch build, their weight decays as the game ages (3-year half-life after a 1-year grace). That's how a game that launched rough can outgrow its old reception once updates win players over. Reviews under 2h playtime (the refund window), non-Steam activations, and free copies are downweighted.

“Resident Evil: Revelations 2's final chapter ends up with an acceptable conclusion. A minor entry in the franchise, but completely enjoyable. Fans of the first Revelations won't be disappointed, newcomers in the franchise that like action sections will enjoy the fights and classic lovers will find some nods to the original games.”

“Episode Four: Metamorphosis' lop-sided nature means that it's individually weaker than its immediate predecessor, but when you consider its importance to the story, you'd mad to miss out. Just make sure that you get the good ending, sit back, and soak up the silliness.”

“Despite some of the flaws in the pacing of Metamorphosis, this remains a strong finish for the game as a whole.”

“The shorter length and arbitrary conditions of the final episode may not be as well thought-out as previous episodes, but as a combined whole it is a solid finish to a spin-off that successfully restored a lot of lost faith with the Resident Evil brand.”

“A good ending to a game that retakes part of Resident Evil's original charm. This particular episode shines despite its awful Moira & Claire section. ”

“Capcom gives its episodic Resident Evil game a proper send-off, though the uniquely constructed co-op mode is still dragged down somewhat by generic enemies and disappointingly standard level design.”

“Episode 4 is a remarkably disappointing end to a very nice series. There is nothing left of the strong gameplay of Barry and Natalia at the end, and Claire and Moira do not add anything to the game anymore. It is such a pity, especially because our sympathy for this game grew every week and gets torn down in an instant.”

“So, ultimately, is the entire package of Resident Evil Revelations 2 worth your time? Absolutely. If you’ve already played the previous chapters, there’s no reason not to check out the fourth and final chapter in the game.”

“The final chapter in the first digital episodic Resident Evil just follows the known formula seen in the previous ones and keeps repeating its best moments till the end. It doesn't add new gameplay elements and, what is worst, it's unable to beat the great sensations left by the 3rd episode. At least, the story is tied up well (with two different endings) and, still, it offers great fun and has high replay value. ”

“At this point, if you’re not interested in Revelations 2, the finale will do little to change your mind. However, if you have enjoyed Revelations 2 up until now, then pick this up to finish off the story.”

“Overall, Episode 4: Metamorphosis is a worthy conclusion to Capcom’s first episodic Resi outing, delivering equal helpings of puzzles, tension-filled gunfights, and a healthy dollop of nostalgia to round things off.”

“Resident Evil: Revelations 2 comes to a proper close with chapter 4; Metamorphosis. The great gameplay carries through to a satisfying ending and Raid Mode continues to be a blast.”
