Hey everyone I’m Red and this is Critical Reset, where I look to bring YOU the pretty good of in-depth video game reviews. Fresh, unbiased perspectives on both new and classic releases. Our main focus is older titles, with new games covered on a case-by-case basis.

I use a simple 0–5 scale based entirely on my general opinion:

0.0 Unplayable – Broken, crashes, or unplayable.

1.0 Very Poor – Major flaws, almost no fun.

1.5 Poor – Serious issues outweigh enjoyment.

2.0 Fair – Good ideas dragged down by problems.

2.5 Mediocre – Functional but forgettable.

3.0 Decent – Solid, but rough around the edges.

3.5 Good – Enjoyable with minor flaws.

4.0 Very Good – Polished and recommendable.

4.5 Excellent – Exceptional, in almost every respect only tiny flaws prevent perfection.

5.0 Outstanding – A masterpiece, memorable and near‑perfect!

Scores reflect design, execution, and impact - not algorithms.

(Critical Reset is a video game review focused channel that lacks DEI practices. 👍)
