NOT A PLATFORM WARRING THREAD
Again, not a platform warring thread. But a thread on game scores, reviews, consensus, etc, around them and how they are (or not) actually tied to its platform.
For example, a game of the past generation was more likely to get better reviews on PlayStation 4, rather than games on Xbox One or Wii U, due to playerbase installment. Alas, a game that releases for consoles and PC might be more well receieved by the general consensus, rather than games that are VR exclusives.
Or games that would get beat down if they present bad performance on PC/PS/XBOX, but isn't the case in Nintendo Switch due to its hardware constraints.
This also affects not only hardware but digital platforms. Just as Epic not having a review system like Steam. Or being available on subscription services like Game Pass in release day.
Etc, etc.
