"Overrated" is just an excuse to be contrarian

I like New Vegas, but it is definitely overrated. Both things can be true.

Contrarian is just an emergency buzzword for "people" with no arguments against legitimate criticism, who desperately hope to shut down any sort of discussion.

"Correctly rated" is just an excuse for people with no real opinion to jump on a bandwagon, prove me wrong.

holy shit, this guy is FUCKED

playing Arcanum now, first time. massively overrated for how shit the combat and stats systems are. 10/10 setting with 6/10 mechanics.

Usually yes. Good criticism is direct. "Too many other people like it" isn't a logical way to assess something. How much popularity us too much? Can't be quantified.

Okay.
Go to an Undertale thread and point out any of the game's flaws. See how long it takes for rabid fanboys that fap to shota goat porn to pile up on you.
Overrated games are a result of an echochamber of people with no dissenting opinions. They think the game is the best because they don't hear opinions that break his skewered point of view.

Overrated doesn’t mean something is bad but that it gets arguably more praise than it deserves.

For instance, Dark Souls is a good game, but there are certain people that overrate it and gloss over its flaws.

Alternately, there are things which aren’t necessarily flawed, but for whatever reason, people give undue praise to the qualities that they do possess, like Undertale which is flawlessly executed aside from that one weirdo furry

Yes, sounds like Yas Forums's userbase to me
