NNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Deserves way lower score than that for not being a finished game. Still not as shit as 13 or 8 though.

>10

F

>has a 92

8 is a better game, after 7 and 9 or equal maybe, and 80 in metacritic is a good score for FFXV hope when it is finished is a 85 but doubt it

The combat alone makes it better than 13.

How is that humanly possible? It's the most fun the series has been since the Enix merger.

Or is it just that people overrated XIII because muh fan loyalty, and now the series is finally getting more realistic appraisal because everyone's been forced to take the rose-tinted glasses off?

Which is bullshit because anyone with two brain cells to rub together knows that XIII is way worse.

Xbone version is 81.

The latter I guess. It's hard to trust gaming publications when they can't even be consistent with their scoring. They rated XIII so highly only because of blind loyalty to the brand but when XV comes out they suddenly decide to rate it realistically.

Review standards have changed. Reviewers are slowly trying to bring down scores and get away from the stigma of paid reviews. (Case in point, the IGN reviewer who gave XV a lower score than the site gave XIII said that he hated XIII, but that another reviewer scored that game).

The industry has changed. Japanese games, especially non-Nintendo games, aren't in fashion and aren't allowed to do as well as their western counter parts.

The 10 year wait time sent expectations through the roof, and anything less than "the best game ever" was going to be met with harsh criticism. There's also the camp of people who wanted it to be turn based and never intended to give it a fair shot, and people who are big Nomura fans who just wanted it to fail after he was taken off the project (the most recent 60 review reeks of a Nomura fanboy, its in his overall summary).

Its certainly not the worst Final Fantasy. Not the best either like people wanted it to be, but certainly not a "bad" game.

But what should I expect from an industry that thinks a generic piece of trash game like IX is a masterpiece?

Its good, i swear. You gotta buy it for 59.99 and see for yourself.

It's still better than VIII and XIII.

Both games were overrated drastically, they're low 70s at best.

Also you have shit taste.

13 also had the graphics and cinematics appeal which XV completely lacks.

They're still paid though.

>fantasy based on reality
what did the 82 score mean by this?

I refuse to believe there are people this stupid.

I read a good point brought up recently that its not actually "paid reviews" as we imagine them outside some advertising, but the bigger problem is consumers who will stop visiting your site if you talk shit about something they're excited for, and FFXV is a game that a lot of people had an emotional attachment to.

>thinking the combat in ff13 is good, or better than 15

I refuse to believe there are people this stupid.

Someone update it.

the last smt got like a 85. whats final fantasy's excuse.

I say remove VIII

>impossible to die
>hold O and Square
>QTEs
>warp striking removes any challenge
>techniques are spammable and OP
>good
Wew

Well, SMT is a far better series. And the SMT game in question was a glorified expansion full of reused assets even by SMT standards, and it's a hell of a lot better than FFXV.

>FF9 got 94 scores

Holy...shit...FF9...is...a...master...piece...

That's not a good point at all and it is paid reviews. No matter how small the perk, the perks exist, getting free games alone sways reviews from youtubers and huge publications alike.

There's a reason people like TB have such a huge following and its because people like that are not sell-out cunts.

VI,IX and XII were all done by Ito and happen to be the 3 best games in the series. Really makes you fucking think.

XV wasn't shit enough to make that list imho.

If XV was to be added to that list, then X should be added too, but that's just my opinion.

XV is better than those three, so no need to update that.

8 is better than 15 in every comparable way.
>better story, simply amazing
>better music
>better characters
>summons and actual magic
>more vehicles
>more varied world
list goes on

>lowest rated non-MMO mainline FF game
That isn't close to being true

Yes it is.

Gee, who could have predicted that would happen?

I haven't played XV but if it's worse than VIII in every way than it has to be really fucking bad.

How the fuck can you have a worse story than VIII?

This is what you get for making an open-world game.

Couldn't disagree more my dude.

10 years later,xv will be called "it was good game and my favorite FF" like FF12.
This fucking meme

The first 3 are rated worse
c'mon son

I'm pretty sure IV has the lowest on snes because of its shit graphics for its time.

YOU RUINED EVERYTHING!!! IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE THE HIGHEST SCORING AND BEST SELLING!!

BUT NOOO YOU, YOUR MEMES AND CONAN OBRIEN MADE IT LOOK BAD.

Shimomura did drop the ball on the OST hard, best song wasn't even done by her. youtube.com/watch?v=wniOUlRwaMM

I didn't say it was good, I said it was better than 13's.

Ask Tabata.

By barely having a story at all. FFVIII had a shit story, but it told it pretty well and gave it its all. FFXV is on MGSV levels of unfinished in terms of story.

Which is objectively false.

Final sucked, FF15 is a lot more enjoyable. At least you can die.

>Better characters

stop telling lies

How can you like VIII's story? It's literally convoluted shit for the sake of being convoluted.

Apologize.

But 14 scored a destitute 40 on metacritic.

That's easy, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15.... Shit that's five though.

...

I didn't say that.

I didn't.

Nah but there's always 1-2 review clickb8 sites that give a 30 or 40

>Take a story
>Now make it into a trilogy
>Now condense that back into a single game
>Now scrap most of it except for the bare bones of it
>Now rebuild it with an inexperienced writer
>Finally, cut out chunks of it so it can be released in time. Don't worry, just make the consumer pay for the rest of it later

congrats on spamming enough 1 star troll reviews to bump a score aggregator down to the appropriate number to justify your shitty post.

>posting a re-release

Oh yeah, XIII was rated very high by reviewers.

Those 30 year old games obviously don't count you morons metacritic didn't even exist back then and ports don't count.

You didn't play Final on the highest difficulty then. It fixed the battle system from SMTIV entirely.

It also jacks the prices of everything up, forcing you to swap between normal and higher difficulties constantly.

Hate to break it to you but that number comes from professional reviews, user scores are on a 1-10 scale.

Just beat me to it. And if you actually read the reviews, they don't bitch about anything port related, it's all about the gameplay and elements that were unchanged in the rerelease. FFII is and will probably always be the worst mainline Final Fantasy game by a wide margin.

>t-they don't count

>mfw people hate 8
>mfw 8 is my favorite game because you can exploit the living hell out of the junction /crafting system really fucking early turning the entire game into a shooting galery

Can we all agree this game would have been loved and had rave reviews if the cast was all female instead?

>XV is good when compared to a 25 year old game

haha XVfags

Actually the highest free DLC difficulty doesn't change Compendium prices at all. You played it on Normal mode, congrats!

You seriously think there are no troll critics who have the privilege of doing fake reviews on there?

metacritic is only used for shitposting.

>I just want to shitpost about the new Tortanic! Remember how much fun that was? Stop posting facts, you asshole!

If the game cast was Aranea, Iris, Cidney and Gentiana it would probably be top 3 unfortunately it is now bottom 3.

There hasn't been a single game better than Chrono trigger yet

Time don't mean shit

No.

Question:
Why do people act like 11 and 14 aren't mainline games?
If it's because they are multiplayer then why do people act like 4, 5, 6 and 9 are mainline games?
If the numbers don't matter and just being singleplayer is important then why isn't Tactics a mainline game?

I'm fucking confused by how people refer to this series.

If there was even one permanent female member of Noctis' roving band of leather daddies, the metacritic score would have increased by at least five points. Ten points if she's lesbian/trans.

you have shit taste

Dragon Quest V shits all over CT.

>trailers looked pretty good
>begs for a pc port but it's NEVER EVER
>game finally releases
>turns out to be shit
>is a likely candidate for a pc port

t-thanks

Chrono Cross is better.

>port of a 30 year old game
holy fuck you're desperate

FF15 is a Cindy simulator.

Prove me wrong fags

SJW game journalism only care about Western game females. They hate all nip girls by default no matter how diverse they are.

XV is good though.

>op states that 15 was the lowest rated mainline game
>gets proven wrong
>hahaha doesn´t mean shit because 2 is older

are you on meds ?

>b-but muh port

HAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHHAAH

...

Cindy is worst girl.

When does the beta end? Can it make a comeback?

IT

BEGINS

Nah, they just know Japan doesn't give a shit about what they think. If FFXV actually had a pink haired tumblrette, critics would applaud the game for finally being an "inclusive" jap game.

are you fucking illiterate

read the OP again

TFW your triple game can't even beat Nomura's PSP game

Score is lower than i thought

Chrono trigger is the greatest game to have ever came out of Square and is unreachable.

They will never top it

i´d let her polish my hot rod

if you catch my drift

Exactly

A game about a group of females and their hardships like pushing a car in the desert and fending off horny men

GOTY 10/10S

Even the haters would love it due to being able to fap to 4 sluts.

wew RIP tokyo team.

score might dip below 80 at this rate
