If you're not familiar with https://metacritic.com, it's basically rotten tomatoes except it also covers video games and music. I remember looking at the list of greatest games as a kid and wanting to try them all and being excited when a new game got ratings good enough to be anywhere near the top
In short, metacritic is both a driver of game sales and a source of pride for neurodivergent g*mer fanboys
It has thus become a source of drama that the third-best switch game of all time is The House in Fata Morgana, a visual novel about inhabitants of a spooky mansion. With a rating of 96/100, it ranks higher than Zelda ToTK and every other switch game besides Mario Odyssey and Zelda BoTW .
If you're not familiar with the concept of a "visual novel", it's basically a game composed entirely of text-based, click-to-proceed cutscenes, with music and anime-style art to set the mood. So in other words with the exception of 3 or 4 "choose your own adventure" moments across 40+ hours of text, it's more like a book than a game.
So naturally, having been tricked into reading a book by metacritic, a lot of g*mers are not happy . It is a testament to how good the "game"/"book" is that it has maintained a user score of 8.6/10 when the review section is filled with seething reviews of people who are mad that they got tricked into purchasing a book:
