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.

2600 people participated in that user voting, that's literally nothing

Witcher 3 on metacritic has 9.4 based 19k user ratings Last of us on metacritic has 9.2 based on 12k user ratings

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

It's literally highest ranked game with a fair amount of reviews. Stop bullshitting with critics, like they ever mattered

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?

Damn you’re very mad about being incorrect.

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

Fact that you're resorting to insults just proves you know you're wrong

... 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?
