Individual preference is just as biased as that of journalists. In both cases, you're relying on someone's impression that is not your own.
Journos reviews/scores are unreliable because of financial or political incentive & game journos nowadays don't even like games.
As long as you are aware of a bias- especially if it aligns with yours- you will still be better informed than going in blind. If a friend or trusted reviewer says they like/dislike a game, a scale is useful for quantifying how much.
