I agree, there’s way too many s-tier games. I don’t think he’s doing that as an encouragement though, he’s probably just looking at it with a different understanding of that tier.

Imo s-tier should be games that you keep coming back to, because they’re so good. I can’t imagine he keeps coming back to Kayak VR. It looks fine, but that’s about it. Probably the game that annoys me the most in that tier.
