I also hate when people say "this is objectively ____" when it is entirely subjective. The same goes for "this is factually _____" when it is not a fact at all.

actually, "in my opinion" acknowledges that you consider your opinion to be just that, an opinion, rather than claiming whatever statement you've made to be fact.

However, if I say, "The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time is a good game," am I stating an opinion or a fact? It should be obvious that I am stating an opinion, unless I say that it is objectively or factually a good game. I don't see why someone should need to tack on "IMO" to a statement like that.
