See https://www.reddit.com/r/Games/comments/14f8jsg/final_fantasy_xvi_review_thread/ for an example.
I realize that they are likely mostly done by hand but I quite miss them. They were some of my favorite features on that subreddit.
I suppose a script could be written to automate at least parts of it.
What do you think?
I do occasionally make review threads like that one. They’re easy to do and aren’t done by hand actually, anyone can grab the template from OpenCritic.
-
Go to OpenCritic and find the game you want
-
Under “Share This Game”, click the rightmost button (Export)
-
Choose the “Reddit” export (it’s actually just markdown so it can be used anywhere)
And there you go, it’ll give you a template full of reviews you can copy and paste to make your own thread. Now it’s mostly a matter of cleaning up the formatting a bit and maybe removing some lesser known reviews in case there are too many (like 20+ of them)
