Score fell to 83 on Metacritic
Slant give it a 40 so first bad score

And that right there is just trolling/click bait. I don't care who you are, this game is not a 40.

But whatever. Scores are scores. I love the game and it won't change what I think by someone giving it a 4 or a 10.

Also I will never give Metacritic or Opencritic or any other statistical website the light of day if they don't follow the classic statistics rules in tossing out outliers. Such as this score right here. Not only would tossing it out give a better representation of the average, but it would also help in cutting down on click bait reviews.

Opencritic lets you remove certain publications from your own personal aggregate. It's great. So no Slant or Stevivor Troll Reviews for me! 

Without troll reviews, and discredited review sites (Gamespot *cough* Fired Gerstman for telling the truth *cough*) Xenoblade 2 aggregates at 86/100. 

But that's pretty much the story for every JRPG these days. There's always people that will hate it simply for being a JRPG. These games are always three to four points underrated on metacritic. Then we have paint by numbers boring FPS games like CoD, Destiny, and even Battlefront that are way overrated on metacritic.
