How this trust score was computed
Trust blends alignment (40%): does the outlet rank games the way players do; decoded accuracy (30%): after translating the outlet's own scale habits (a '7/10 means mediocre' scale is decoded, not punished), how well its reviews predict player sentiment; and player-side (30%): on games where press consensus and players sharply disagreed, whose side it took. Recent reviews weigh more (2-year half-life), and the blend is shrunk toward a neutral prior (60) so small samples can't peg the scale. Player quality is launch-window Steam sentiment, so outlets aren't punished for reviewing a launch build that later got patched.
Controversy record: on 7 games where press consensus and players sharply disagreed, this reviewer sided with players 3 times.

“Ubisoft proves that the best way to honor a classic is to deeply understand what made it special, refining the combat, world, and story around Edward Kenway while having the wisdom to leave that core magic untouched.”

“Invincible VS builds a fast, brutal, and accessible 3v3 fighting foundation, but its limited roster variety and underdeveloped story make it feel like the first chapter of something still evolving.”

“A clever and emotional sci-fi shooter that turns hacking into both a combat system and a story about connection.”
