REVIEWING REVIEWS: The release of FromSoftware's newest game, Elden Ring, has many people talking about reviews due to the fact that many outlets rated the game 10/10 (or whatever metric they use) while the reviewers openly admit that they didn't finish the game (this was due to FromSoftware releasing review codes to websites really late).
