A 10/10 would mean a game is practically perfection and an absolute must-play - which very few games are either of those. No, Elden Ring is NOT 10/10; 9 at most, and not a must-play at all if you dislike challenging gameplay.

Similarly, BotW was never worthy of a 10/10; it was a 5 maximum. I should know that; I completed the damn trash pile.

People withold the use 10/10 so strongly. I'm not saying elden ring is 10/10, but I am saying that perfection is unattainable. 10 means history defining. 10 means best of a genre. 10 is Mario 64, Final fantasy 7, etc. A game will age and a game will have a specific target audience. It can't be this magical status of perfect and it won't be perfect years on.

First - A 10 Game should "work" and should having a good "Game Controls".....

The game itself is fine. Gameplay is good. Story is... There... However, it needs a lot of tuning. There is no reason the game should change my monitors refresh rate.

@Chary Something can be "history defining" whilst being a truly rotten piece of software; Mass Effect Andromeda, for example, killed off new Mass Effect games, while Warcraft 3 Reforged murdered and replaced Warcraft 3.

Also, "best of a genre" is quite subjective; I find SM64DS to be of far higher quality than Galaxy or Sunshine, and New SMB 2 to be a fantastic platformer, far better than others I've played. So that doesn't work either.

Numerical scores are dumb anyway, since everyone has their own biases and preferences and tastes. What might be a 9 to one person could easily be a 5 to someone else, and vice-versa, and not every 9/10 game is alike either.

Combat, visual, and sound design are all unmatched. Let me put it to you this way: I haven't seen a single section of the open world that looks exactly like any other. Absolutely insane when you consider the scope of it. I also found the way AROUND the first major legacy dungeon completely by accident. Even with millions of players, most will end up taking different paths through the world.

    Kind of useless now considering my cat probably has a wifi chip inside it

    I guess it's useful if your landlord doesn't let you rewire the apartment or change the switches.

    Smart plugs and bulbs are already around the same price

    Wifi power strips even becoming common

    Having a remote servo that can push/pull something for you is still useful.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It could operate a latch.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    On the other hand there are those chandeliers with like 50 lightbulbs and that would be a bit expensive to replace with smart bulbs.

    Anbernic's SP clone will be $60 and I think I'll buy it. Looks decent enough and it will stop me from drooling over every single new handheld that comes out.
