| I bought The Order 1886 knowing the bad reviews, yet, I'm thoroughly enjoying the game. So do you guys buy if the game gets good reviews or no? |

Depends. If a game gets above a 7-8 in IGN normally its very fun (excluding the game evolve)

| It sort of depends. If reviews are low, it may mean I'll wait for a sale as opposed to full price. |

| I'm not sure, I've bought games that were 6.5/10 from IGN, but loved them. |

Sometimes. It just depends. If it's a game that I think I might want and it's on sale on Steam for like, $1.25, I'll just read a couple of Steam reviews (Mainly negative ones, to see what's wrong with it), and most likely I'll buy it. But full priced games that I'm interested in? I read a lot of reviews before buying them.

| nah, I tend to look for gameplay videos. I might look at a review just to get a general idea of what the game is like, but it's not usually enough to convince me to buy or not buy a game. |

@PunIntended
I remember that review for Pokemon ORAS, that was really dumb... Which is why I don't take IGN seriously. |
