Wow this thread is just a massive "people who dislike a game I love are idiots". Guys, you know that different opinions exist and are valid, right? I can't imagine your reaction when you discover that the Xbox One version has a 79...

One is clearly a troll review, and I didn’t see the mix review yet

When a review consists of "The story is stupid and I don't know what's going on" for a game that is the tenth entry in a franchise, then yeah. It's a troll review.

I don't care how much you dislike the story. The gameplay, despite being easy, is solid and undeserving of a 4/10. And I figured the Xbox version would get a bad score, since most people who would review that version of the game specifically are eagerly awaiting the next CoD.

Yeah, it is definitely the right thing to blame Xbox gamers for not understanding the story because they are "eagerly awaiting the next CoD" and not Square Enix with their brilliant decision to bring the collection of past games exclusively on PS4.



 

Super reviews. Jrpg fans are spoilt this gen.

That would be a fair point to make if sales of JRPGs on XB1 didn't indicate a fairly prominent lack of interest in that section of the industry.

 

Added: That being said, I do think the collections should be made available on Xbox One and Switch.

Then maybe later, Square can "de-master" KH3 to run the same graphical engine as the other games so it can run on Switch without issue.

Up to 72 reviews now with a score of 84:

68 positive
3 mixed
And then that troll review. Interested in what the score would be if that guy's editor had said "yeah, you weren't going to review this fairly from the get-go" and thrown it away.

That would also be a fair point if Japanese publishers have ever supported the platform the way they are doing with Playstation. There were almost zero JRPGs in 2014-2016 while tons of them on PS4. The JRPG fanbase just isn't on this platform for the most part. I think that the statement that Xbox gamers aren't interested in the genre is not quite correct, it is more like the majority of those who love JRPGs aren't interested in Xbox as their platform of choice.

They did try with the 360. Didn't work out.

And multiple high profile JRPGs have appeared on Xbox One with significantly lower sales than the PS4 counterparts.

 

The JRPG demographic just isn't on Xbox.
