Well just saying, there are 59 reviews on there right now, and only 8 of them score a 6,5 and lower. I doubt that all of them are pandering to publishers, most seem pretty legit and realistic about the issues they have with the game.

That said, I don't think the game was ever meant to do anything groundbreaking anyway, so it being mid seems alright to me.

I'd never posit that all reviewers are pandering to large publishers, but rather that the majority have absolutely seen score creep that now rewards mediocrity with 7/10 in order to maintain access. This is why I unapologetically turn to a more trusted source first.
