My gut tells me the majority will give it a high 7 to a low 8. Good first impression, soild mechanics but enemy AI is clunky and the end-game loop stagnates with only repeatable stronghold content after a fairly short campaign.

There's a more than large enough 'fuck EA' crowd to kick 'user scores' down 2-3 marks, even if the game is awesome.

There's a more than large enough 'fuck EA' crowd to kick 'user scores' down 2-3 marks, even if the game is awesome. I'm always pessimistic of any game that has EA as a publisher. I don't however, trash a game just based on the publisher. If a game is good and I enjoy it, then I could careless who the publisher is, but I will approach all games with caution based on the publisher. I think most publishers typically earn their reputation, be it good or bad. The one thing I won't do is pre-order a game from anyone. Pre-ordering benefits no one but the publisher/developer and can reinforce bad habits by them. For the OP question, I think it will hit a 7 or 8 which to me is respectable, but I don't think anything below an 8+ will be for EA.

My guess is the review score will be mostly on the 8-9 range.

Critic scores are going to fall somewhere in between 8.5-9.0.
Game has been in development since 2012, they are showing off a "Demo", not a "Beta", that is available to everyone whether you pre-ordered or not, and they are just spit-polishing at this point waiting to announce it has gone "Gold". They are confident in this one. Just look to scores for "DAO" (87 scores), "ME2" (94 scores), "ME3 (93 scores)", and "DAI" (89 scores) - when development wasn't within 16-18 months, BioWare is capable of producing great games. I think it will get off to a hot start but the question will be how much it can sustain. As for userscore on places Metacritic? Honestly, who cares...I can't think of anything less useful in determining whether or not I'd buy a game as a Metacritic userscore.

I have no faith in the gamer review scores. The reasonable reviews will be drowned out by EA BAD! SINGLE PLAYER IS NOT DEAD! review bombs that'll inevitably drop. Games Journalists scores will probably be in the low eighties to low nineties though and even then I'll probably be skeptical given their sketchy history.

I'm guessing around 8 for critics. User reviews ... I just don't even want to speculate.
I hope it is fun to play as a co-op game with my brother. Co-op video games are how we stay in touch even though we live so far apart.

God I hope I'm not about to blow this for you, but if you're hoping for splitscreen, I don't believe Anthem has that available.

The reasonable reviews will be drowned out by EA BAD! SINGLE PLAYER IS NOT DEAD! Pretty much. recent Anthem videos get 80-90% likes, but half the comments are: - Destiny 3 looks good.
- My face is tired.
- Mass Effect died for this.
- When are the looboxes launching?
So the 10-20% are certainly filling their boots.
