To clarify, I meant that I'm fine with multiple things not being 10/10 (I was thinking of Metaphor as a 9/10 across the board, assuming a 10/10 is something I say about things very rarely) as long as some one thing is, like just the ending or just gameplay. I'm not consisent with that though anyways, I thought that Dark Souls 1 really does have 10/10 world exploration early on, yet I don't like it because of a lot of other problems. It's all really just gut feelings in the end, it was the best way I could explain why Metaphor feels like it's missing something.
