It's more the fact that Amazon Japan is a strange place. It's either people are just reviewing poorly to be trolls or they're rating games way too high because they're biased. So, it's kind of like Metacritic in that sense.

For example, a number of Xenoblade X reviews were done by people who didn't even own the game and were just using Google Translate to falsify negative claims about the game.

I'll pick this up at some point. Will wait for the price to drop a bit though. Looks like it could be alright.

Is that so? Can you read Japanese?

No, Tachi's the one that discovered that. I was pretty surprised.

If this game does well in Japan that it will be a bigger surprise than Splatoon. And Splatoon was a huge surprise!

I knew it was going to be better than Xenoblade X. Game of the Year!

which is pretty weird, you can't provide rating on amazon sites if it is just a pre-order. Is it really possible in amazon.jp? or it is just someone trolling?

I understand it could be higher than Bloodbourne, TW3 and maybe XCX.  But DQH and and MK8 where it is really has strong community.  User reviews are really just specific for those people who wanted to put ratings and reviews on a product.  We don't know the % in japan on how many consumers really rate products. I know it is just a small %.

Probably just an error that allowed it to happen, though I have seen the same thing before.  My point is, human beings aren't really trustworthy.  User scores should never be taken at face value, especially with a small sample size.

Do not trust anything he sais. He is not one of us.
