Alleged fans assure that final fantasy 16 is not a final fantasy real

The number of negative reviews stands in stark contrast to the 88 average critic reviews. In total there are 108 critic reviews; none of them is negative; only 8 are mixed and the rest are higher than 7.

Many reviewers who gave negative ratings argue that the main reason why final fantasy 16 earned that qualification is because its direction does not deviate from the essence of the series to such a degree that some mention that “it is not a final fantasy“.

Apparently this would not be a problem if final fantasy 16 was not exclusive. We say this because, as evidenced by Twitter user kjngamer, some of the reviewers who rated 0 final fantasy 16 They also rated other PlayStation exclusives extremely low, while rating Nintendo and Xbox titles very highly, suggesting that these are clearly fanboys for a competing brand.

Like metacritic is continuing to show that critics reviews matter more than users. When years ago us gamers felt it was users rating that matter the most

This is not an isolated case, it happens with Xbox and Nintendo titles as well and apparently it is only done to try to discredit competing games or prevent their rating from being positive. In the end, what it causes is that users no longer take other users’ reviews seriously, which is unfortunate.
