Review aggregation site Metacritic has spoken out in response to the ongoing review bombing of Dragon Age: The Veilguard by online commenters upset at the game’s inclusive characters and themes.
BioWare’s latest Dragon Age epic holds a “generally favourable” review average of 84 on Metacritic, based on a consensus of 54 critics’ scores.
But the game’s Metacritic user score is listed as just 3.8 out of 10, with a majority of user opinions falling in the starkly negative range. Looking at some of the most recent reviews at the time of writing, these include numerous scores of zero out of 10 for content in the game repeatedly described as “woke”.
“Awful dialogue and obviously some woke agenda psyop”, reads a zero out of 10 review from one user. “This is censorship at its worst.”
“Woke kill the game”, wrote another user who rated the game with a zero.
