Except the fact that a lot of the reviewers have played and reviewed JRPGs for years and they know that graphics, while important to an extent, aren't the first priority in games, especially RPGs where they are arguably the least important aspect.
The reason why Persona 3 and 4 gets higher review scores than most non FF JRPGs is because a lot of the JRPGs released these days are rip offs of other JRPGs which makes them feel uninspired. Also, I think mainstream gamer tastes are taken into account with review scores hence why you see more 90+% shooters and WRPGs than 90%+ JRPGs.
