Just as a side note, does anybody of you know any of these retards giving W2 a 0 score on metacritic while simultaneously trashing the game with faults that their beloved DA2s and other fail catastrophically?

I mean, I would really like to talk to those tools and examine them in person, clinically...
They're trolling "ironically."

For us yes, trolls of the lowest caliber, but has anybody talked to them in person? I would like to see such an astounding rate of hypnosis... or crap spewing... not behind the forcefield of the internet or reviews you can't reply to.
They're just doing it to get a rise out of people like you who take this too seriously. I would be more interested in seeing the inner workings of people who value those reviews.

It actually doesn't anger me, especially with such shallow and non-existing remarks, but you must say it would be interesting to grab a beer and some chips and watch them crap that s**t out so we can laugh at their fantasy points :)

You're assuming they believe what they're writing. And that internet phenomenon replicates in the real world. Both illustrate a misunderstanding of what is going on.

There are essentially two groups. One group is blaming Witcher fans for the metabombing of DA2. So they're metabombing TW2 as a form of retaliation.

The other group thinks its fun to troll metacritic itself by making transparent fanboy remarks that they don't necessarilly agree with. They're doing it because they like behaving silly or because they're trying to illustrate the absurdity of the user review system in their own awkward way.

Well of course, I'm talking of those that believe it, and they are the ones I would like to examine, not the fake troll-to-do-something ones ;-)
And if there is nobody that truly believes it?
Its interesting that Witcher 2 has an average user score of 9.0 while DA2 has a user score of 4.3. So the trolls are easy enough to ignore.

That is true, and look more weirder than usual.
