OpenCritic
OpenCritic is a video game review aggregation site, launched on September 30, 2015. Similar to Metacritic and GameRankings, OpenCritic generates an average review score from multiple reviews published by other video game websites, allowing players to judge the general reception that a game has obtained.
==History==
OpenCritic was developed to avoid some of the controversies that Metacritic has gained in the video game industry. A game's Metacritic score has become strongly attached to the financial performance of a game and subsequent efforts of the development studio and publisher, such as affecting post-release studio bonuses. However, Metacritic provides limited details of how it calculates its review scores, and uses weighted averaging that favors some publications over others, leading many to criticize the heavy weight that the industry puts on the site.
The concept of OpenCritic was developed by a team led by Matthew Enthoven of Riot Games. The philosophy of the site was to avoid the pitfalls of Metacritic by making the nature of the review aggregation clear and open. They also wanted to provide a more human element to the scores; reviews are presented with the author's name listed, and they wanted to allow users to customize what reviews took priority.〔
The site has been in development since 2014, and formally launched on September 30, 2015.〔 At the time of its public announcement, the site carried reviews from about 75 different sources. The site plans on being a "historical record" of video game reviews from its launch date forward and does not plan to fully populate older games.〔 Further, to support the site's full set of features, they had to omit games on the Nintendo 3DS and PlayStation Vita platforms, due to difficulty in getting gameplay video and screenshots. Developers can submit games for inclusion on the site as long as certain qualifications are met; further, other review sources can also request addition to the site by meeting certain qualifications.〔 The site also plans to list Steam Early Access scores in the future.
