Sort of yeah, basically the crux of what he says is, its not an MMO, you get rewarded with oodles of loot for every tiny action in the game "have another reward, why am I getting all these rewards, here's another reward for asking that" etc, its far too easy "its boring and easy", where are all the players "its like 6 players per instance", you have to play it for 4000 hours before it gets good.
I'm much the same as you, I do often find that my interests dont align with him, I also can usually predict that if its a title that many people like, the chances are that he will say the opposite (sometimes I think he says the opposite on purpose, to portray himself as some kind of white knight , railing against the masses). Now, having said that, I didnt like Lost Ark (as per my earlier post) but that wasnt because its a bad game, that was because of reasons specific to my tastes. I can certainly see why Lost Ark is a really good game for many people. I suppose the trouble with Mack is that he doesnt do objective reviews he only reviews based on his own tastes, which I guess is all good and well but it does make it very hard to use his reviews as a guideline for buying games because its like reading a review of a movie about Middle Eastern Carpentry in the 15th Century written by a woodworker who studied medieval furniture design. They may rave about the movie and you go watch it and think its dump, not very useful as a barometer for purchase.
