How this trust score was computed
This reviewer publishes verdicts, not numbers, so trust comes from their recommend/pan calls: call accuracy (50%): when they say buy, do players end up satisfied, and when they say skip, do players agree; alignment (25%): do their recommendations sort games the way players do; and player-side (25%): on games where press and players sharply disagreed, whose side were they on. The blend is shrunk toward a neutral prior (60) so small histories can't peg the scale, and recent verdicts weigh more (2-year half-life).
Controversy record: on 1 game where press consensus and players sharply disagreed, this reviewer sided with players 1 time.

Outlet vs. players
Each dot is a game both this outlet and players scored. The dashed line is perfect agreement: dots above it mean the outlet was more generous than players, below it more harsh.

“No Man’s Sky is like a good magic trick. The first time you see it it’s the coolest thing ever. Maybe even the second or third time. But after the 30th time it’s just nowhere as cool as the first time. And by then you know its mechanics so well that the enchantment is broken and see it for the illusion that it is.”

“LSWTFA is a fun, simple game with straight forward game mechanics that are a pleasure to play for fans, and many Lego veterans will be familiar with the game if they have played any other franchises under the lens of Lego.”
