So what this tells me is that at least half the playerbase quit by act 3.

This game is supposed to be some kind of Magnum Opus. The fact that so many people got bored of it, not even halfway through, makes me chuckle. I finished it, but I had to force myself to do so after act 1.

4.5/10.

Most games never get finished. By that metric, there are no great games.

You’d be surprised to find out how many people don’t actually finish the games they play. It’s actually pretty common, and not a good metric to judge a games quality. Just go look at trophy/achievement data for other popular games. Its like this across the board.

For example: only 45% of players have the trophy for beating the final boss in god of war Ragnarok (one of the best reviewed games from last year, and PlayStations fastest selling exclusive ever).

You might be surprised to find out that my judge of quality is not based on other people.

Judging by the replies, I'd say they do. People who don't care tend to ignore things and move along.
