One of those games is also despised by almost its entire fanbase, so I'm gonna go ahead and say that we can wipe that one from the slate. Still impressive that Japan has even one universally acclaimed game like Bloodborne considering a few years ago reviewers treated Japan like it was dead outside of Nintendo. Dark Souls III will repeat this performance though, so one has to wonder if it's the quality of the game that got the score or the fact that it's more Souls, since the gaming media is all over the Souls series' dick at this point. But that's neither here nor there.
Hopefully P5 will continue the trend of non-Nintendo Japan being relevant in the West again.
You should check out my YouTube channel, The Golden Bolt! I review all types of video games, both classic and modern, and I also give short flyover reviews of the free games each month on PlayStation Plus to tell you if they're worth downloading. After all, the games may be free, but your time is valuable!
