I think everything is additive.

The Lord of the Rings is not a good book on the whole. The pacing is bad, the dialogue is at best awful, but the world building and the technical writing is so far beyond anything else it's fine. Hence, LOTR is the second best book ever written.

Destiny has no discernible story, but is the best game of all time.

Oxenfree is a chore to play, the mechanics are obnoxious and immersion breaking, and it's still fun and interesting.

Bioshock Infinite felt real to me, with just dead simple shooting and stuff.

Red vs Blue had razor sharp dialogue, but was edited badly, shot badly, and looked like a 2001 Xbox game, and yet it was fantastic, solely because of the gags.

Lazer Team, if you saw it, was genuinely a horrible movie from every single technical aspect. Bad acting, bad sets...editing was fine actually, bad music except for a couple spots, the worst visual effects ever out on film this side of Monsturd, but the writing carried that. Enough amusing jokes makes it a solid 5/10. The badness of the movie doesn't make the gags worse.

See also Clerks, or, on the other side, Avatar. Avatar is a 9/10 movie for me despite being meh in every category but looking pretty.
