I do watch LGR reviews, and do base my judgement on what he says about Sims. A big percent of my decision are him and negative views (if the views of other simmers are laid out in a fashion and not I hate EA views). LGR suits the way I look at the game. Hmm... his view for me is we both love the older sims games and are not too impressed with the new version. He gives enough detail about the pack for me.. the other simmer (in forum) reviews top the notch.
I always go by negative reviews and then good reviews (even purchasing non game items). Die hard fans tend to over look the flaws or just make excuses for said flaws in any product. So, if a product sold 100,000. 90% of the reviews were high and the rest bad reviews, I would look at the bad reviews and weigh out the positive reviews on what I like or do not. I have won more than not doing this in all products I purchase and yes, I have not bought a product that had 95% positive reviews, because of negative reviews. Always inspect the negative before the positive and base on your style, want, and etc on what deems best for you. Not all popular things have been good on the human race.
I think it totally makes sense to go by him if u usually agree with what he has to say. I don't so I don't go by him haha. But I also don't buy products based on percent of reviews so much as what the reviews say. I've found several wonderful long lasting products with a high amount of poor reviews but when you read them they were nothing to do with the product itself. Stuff like "this puzzle is too hard for my 3 year old" when yes, it's marked for age 3 and up but im buying for a 6 year old, arent going to affect me. With sims reviews if someone goes on about how terrible island living (my Fav pack) is because mermaids aren't that fleshed out but I'd never play mermaids... Or if tiny living has loads of bad reviews cuz the bed breaks too easy but I'm buying for the console and wouldn't use the bed.. Well the negative reviews become useless to me. So I don't go by them First.. I read them but usually last. And not at all for Sims products cuz everything is shown when I buy and I haven't found a single sim reviewer that normally agrees with my opinions. If I could find one I'd take their thoughts into consideration though lol
On the other hand my reasons for not liking lgr are nothing to do with what he says about the game haha
