I believe there needs to be a middle ground established. I agree a lot with what is said here; it’s important to delve into the emotional responses players evoke from a game. At the same time, since the price of new release games can range anywhere from $20 to $60 on average, with little to no distinguishable differences to offset the quality, it’s important to be somewhat objective about the game.
A good reviewer is able to weigh every factor / emotion that went into the game, and deliver a coherent review that’s informative to its audience.

There's no reason that professional reviews can't be almost fully objective, and they should be.
