I disagree, I think eviscerations of a work can be smart, revealing, and fascinating, and it is so, so, so, so very rare to ever have a game critic think that a game is worth eviscerating, and I think that's really unfortunate.
Maybe that was because film criticism, as a collective body of work by numerous people at different publications, didn't tend toward consensus on big studio blockbusters, but allowed for a diversity of viewpoints, including many condemnations.

Tevis is very clear that his point isn't "Why doesn't EVERYBODY agree with me that RDR sucks?" but rather "Why doesn't ANYBODY who reviewed RDR for a major publication think it sucks?"

RDR2 was on my list of the best games of last year and I still completely agree with the animating spirit behind Tevis' criticism.pic.twitter.com/QPfaboYGW7
