    Humans are pretty bad at consistently rating things on a scale. I like Steam’s method of just saying whether you like it and then aggregating those into a rating.

      Yeah, it seems almost only professional reviewers know how to consistently quantify quality and even amongst them, it varies a lot.

      Yet in these days of social media, everyone and their mother consider their own judgment superior 😮‍💨

      Yeah, I couldn’t agree more! It actually works!
