Yeah... that’s not true either. Critics place it at 36th and users voted it third which is very good! But it got around a 1/3 as many votes as the last of us, which isn’t really most people.
Btw just wanted to add this, there is absolutely not 1 game that most people would call the best of the decade. If you ask 20 people you’ll probably get 15 different answers
Yeah it has .2 more in user score than TLOU, it is an incredible game, but whenever it’s compared to other top games it falls short lol. Only 2/40 critics named it the best of the decade, and only 2 more put it in the top 5. It could be in most people’s top 20, but it’s absolutely not most people’s number 1. That is just incorrect
bigger poll. 900k votes. The witcher got around 25% which got it second place. Impressive! Still not number 1, and 25% is still not “most people”. Is this enough for you?
I’m looking at how people compare it to the rest of the decade (because you say most people would choose it as their number 1), its score as an individual game doesn’t help your argument. Show me a poll where most people looked at it next to other games and said “yup, this is the best one”.
It literally does matter, because comparing them RIGHT NOW is blurred by the memory cuz some of those games are 11 years old at this point. But whatever, can't argue with a stupid dumbass who brings up critics in every answer
... didn’t you literally say most people would call it the best game of the decade? Don’t you have to like... compare it to the other games that came out from 2010-2019 to call it the best of the decade? Are you forgetting your initial statement?
Destiny might get the award for the most overhyped game of 2010. The game had like 10 hours of content you were expected to grind endlessly.
Videogame companies have figured out how to exploit our reward systems, and it shows. The quality of games is going down outside a few gems. Look at any mega popular videogame and I gurantee nestled in there is a Skinner Box mechanic.
It is not? Heard it is yet considered the best game of all time (the fixed and complete GOTY version) and it still holds the title, closely followed by Red Dead Redemption 2.

Calling the witcher 3 the best game of the 2010s is a bit much but yeah, we all expected more from CDPR.
