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 16 games where press consensus and players sharply disagreed, this reviewer sided with players 8 times.

- 78Resonance: A Plague Tale LegacyAug 27, 2026 · Daniel Gluhak
“Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy carries forward the spirit of the series with a strong atmosphere and a compelling adventure, but its new gameplay direction and different approach to mechanics don’t quite reach the level of its predecessors. Even so, it remains a quality spin‑off with enough ideas of its own to justify its existence.”

“Gallipoli takes us back to the battlefields of the First World War with the series’ most impressive and dynamic audiovisual presentation to date. It brings an expanded arsenal of classes and abilities, but still struggles with the lingering issue of limited content.”

“Mortal Shell 2 is a great example of a sequel that understands what worked in the original and improves on nearly every part of it. It has its problems, but its combat and exploration can easily stand alongside far more high-profile Soulslikes.”

““Beast of Reincarnation has some good ideas, but it keeps spinning them until there’s no life left. The fun combat, original movement and Koo carry the experience as much as they can, yet the recycling and repetitiveness dull this beast’s fangs far too early.”

“As a standalone game, Campaign Evolved is a technically impressive and excellent FPS. But as a remake of Halo CE, many of its changes hurt the experience and prove that the original is still the better game.”

“Gather your friends and pack some jokes, because the walks can get pretty long. With minimal guidance, the game throws you into an adventure of solving clever puzzles that should keep the whole crew engaged right to the end, despite a feeling that it all could have been even more memorable.”

“It does not matter if this remake is necessary or not, because the conclusion is very simple – Resynced is a better version of Black Flag in every possible way. And it’s a damn good reason for a return to the best pirate‑themed action game.”

“The Adventures of Elliot proves it can step outside their comfort zone and deliver a gorgeous, compact adventure that makes up in heart what it lacks in scope.”

“LEGO Batman put together a fun formula by blending Arkham‑style gameplay with bits of story pulled from various Batman films.”

“007: First Light isn't a flawless game, but it flawlessly understands what makes Bond so unique, and no game has ever fit us into the tuxedo quite this convincingly.”

“Forza Horizon still holds the leading position in open‑world arcade racing. However, by the sixth installment, you can feel its festival formula starting to wear out.”

“Kiln is a creative title with unique foundations, but in its current form it still lacks the content and depth needed to keep a larger player base engaged in the long run.”

“Mixtape is a fantastic celebration of the youth we all leave behind, an adventure with a playful interpretation of music unlike anything we’ve experienced in recent times.”

“A brutal and accessible team-based fighter that perfectly captures the over the top violence and personality of the Invincible universe. Strong core mechanics and diverse characters make it highly addictive despite its simplicity. However, the lack of meaningful single-player content and aggressive monetization hold it back from true greatness.”

“Replaced is a game that put more effort into portraying its fascinating world than creating fun or meaningful events within it.”
