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.

    Assassin's Creed Black Flag ResyncedJul 16, 2026 · Samet Basri Taşlı

    Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag Resynced might be relatively the most successful game in the series, but it's definitely my favorite. It satisfies new players and offers enough new content to keep even those who have finished it from playing.

    007 First LightJun 30, 2026 · Murat Oktay

    Those expecting a structure as deep as Hitman, allowing for hours of experimentation with different possibilities in each mission, should adjust their expectations accordingly. 007 First Light is a more cinematic, more controlled, and faster-paced game.

    Gothic 1 RemakeJun 18, 2026 · Murat Oktay

    Gothic 1 Remake faithfully revives the original's harsh RPG design with a strong atmosphere, rewarding progression, and memorable world-building. Technical issues and its unforgiving nature keep it from greatness.

    LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight mixes LEGO humor, Arkham-style combat, open-world Gotham, strong Bat-Family moments, and rich Batman fan service, but its easy difficulty, shallow stealth, smaller roster, and lack of online co-op hold it back.
