I could return the question.
Since how the "quality plummeted" is sorely based on a stuborn internet consensus rather than actual sales or reviews, are you asking because a ridiculously hyped game is not on the Xbox ?
|
Internet consencus and reviews kinda showed a downward trend. Sales is due to marketing and the fanbase being COD in nature (yes I said it. Will buy just for the name alone).

Don't throw different things in the same barrel just to make a point.
Internet consencus aka as forum dwellers who can't go on with their lives 3 years later, are obsessed with making it seem like FF XIII had a RE 6-like reception. It did not. It was in fact recieved better than FF XII. Noone bought FF XIV based on name alone despite FF XI's success.
And calling the FF fanbase COD in nature means nothing.

Dont know where you got the lie that it was better recieved then XII. A game in the 80's ain't bad by any stretch, but its linearity and general quality dip from its previous FF iteration shows.
Dont compare a MMO to a JRPG. We all know PS gamers are allergic to paying monthly fees ;)

I compared an MMO to another MMO you genious. And the Metascore means absolutely NOTHING, when people chose not to back it up with their wallets.
I know FF XIII was recieved better than XII because I was there. The same way I know FF IX was recieved worse than FF VIII.
