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 10 games where press consensus and players sharply disagreed, this reviewer sided with players 5 times.

- 80Mortal Shell IIAug 17, 2026 · Hasipcan Kahraman
“While Mortal Shell 2 may not be a game that pushes the boundaries of the genre, it’s a sequel that manages to build on the first game and is especially enjoyable for its overall action. It’s not flawless due to its shortcomings and repetitive structure, but the improvements to the combat system and the Shell mechanics make it worth playing.”

“Steins;Gate Re:Boot successfully brings a classic science fiction narrative into the present day, enhanced with modern visuals and an all new ending. Although it stands as one of the pinnacles of the visual novel genre, it doesn’t offer much in the way of significant changes for players who have already experienced the original series.”

“Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced is a game that will satisfy you as long as you set your expectations correctly. If you're expecting a completely redesigned remake, you might not find what you're looking for. However, if your goal is to re-experience one of the most beloved games of AC series with modern graphics, enhanced presentation, and smoother gameplay, Ubisoft has largely succeeded in doing so.”

“Aside from its sailing mechanics and impressive story, the game can sometimes feel boring due to its pacing. Even though the gameplay is fun and mixed with puzzles, their frequency may not be enough to keep every player engaged throughout the experience.”

“Despite its slow pace at the start and a few minor AI glitches, this is an experience that keeps players locked to their screens with its rich level designs, freedom oriented stealth mechanics, and satisfying cinematic action. A game that’s definitely worth a try.”

“Forza Horizon 6 is the new pinnacle of the open-world racing genre, featuring a captivating Tokyo map, the much-missed festival spirit, and road designs that elevate the driving experience to new heights. Although its structure, which rewards the player very quickly, slightly dampens the “climbing from the bottom” feeling, its immense atmosphere, revamped engine sounds, and flawless optimization make it an undisputed masterpiece for racing enthusiasts.”

“Even though it may seem very complex, it’s easy to grasp and offers a unique experience where the fun factor grows by the second, just like your cats.”

“Nioh 3 is a sequel that breathes new life into the series with its open-world design and ninja combat system, while largely retaining the core action mechanics. The story remains in the background, and the loot system and some unnecessary, grueling boss battles continue to be controversial. While there is graphical improvement, technical performance remains inconsistent, particularly on PC. Despite this, thanks to fluid animations, a strong sense of combat, and dual-style mechanics, Nioh 3 offers a more freedom-oriented but cautious evolution for fans of the series.”

“High On Life 2 offers a chaotic experience in all its best and worst aspects. With its more polished writing, strong voice acting, and creative mission design, it’s a more balanced game than its predecessor. On the other hand, its limited shooter depth and optimization issues are the game’s biggest drawbacks. It’s a sequel that’s rough around the edges but has a strong personality. It’s disjointed, energetic, and at times exhausting, but it’s definitely not boring.”

“A fun Souls-like game that doesn’t feel too bad, aside from the fact that optimization is a major issue. An enjoyable rescue adventure from start to finish, with no tedious moments aside from the story dragging on unnecessarily at certain points.”

“With its creative concept and world, Death Howl has the potential to captivate a certain audience, but it struggles to strike a balance between being challenging and remaining a difficult game.”

“While Black Ops 7 is a major disappointment in story mode, it manages to hold its own thanks to its multiplayer and Zombies modes. The campaign has lost the series spirit, but the multiplayer side offers one of the most enjoyable COD experiences of the year, thanks to both its movement system and map designs. The Zombies mode also has high potential; it’s atmospheric and looks set to get even better in the coming weeks. If you’re a Multiplayer gamer, Black Ops 7 can keep you entertained for dozens of hours.”

“At a time when interactive game series are on the decline, this game, which breaks away from classic superhero stories is sure to satisfy everyone with its compelling and unique experience.”

“Europa Universalis 5 offers an immersive experience for anyone looking to dive into historical strategy. The game's flow delivers a historical journey that feels organic and vibrant. The interaction between characters and the natural rhythm of diplomacy and warfare transports the player right to the heart of history. EU5 is a captivating adventure not just for strategy enthusiasts, but for history buffs and all players seeking a deep, immersive experience.”

“Tormented Souls 2 is a game that revives the spirit of classic horror games with modern touches. With its fixed camera angles and dark atmosphere, it creates a nostalgic vibe. While the pace slows down in some places, it remains consistent throughout the game. Tormented Souls 2 is neither perfect nor a disappointment; however, it’s a thoroughly enjoyable return to form for fans of old-school horror.”
