Why has there been so much doomposting around FFXVI?

Why has there been so much doomposting around FFXVI?
DMC-esque combat with old school FF trappings, and yet, if you you only asked this place, you'd think it was dead in the water and that everyone hated it.
Outside of here, I've heard basically nothing but praise.

    >BG3? Doomposted

    It really doesn't matter if a game is good or not. Every game will have a dozen autistic doomposters on Ganker who will doompost 24/7. This is Ganker now

        Exactly. We've reached a point where every board on Ganker has its own logposter. It's the same shit over and over again that I guess the mods can't do anything about because the anons are using VPNs.

        As much as I hate to say it because I like posting anon, this board needs IDs, not even flags but IDs.
        Far too often now you have a small discord group ruin threads and they'll do it for weeks and months because they can post every 30 seconds and make it look like there are multiple people who share their same moronic opinion when it's really only a few dedicated mentally ill schizos.

        Anon, Nintendo fanboys are a very bizarre bunch. Their only interaction with video games is through Nintendo. That's why so many of them were blown away by a game like zelda botw for having done shit everyone else had been eating a decade prior to it.

              Because they're the most vocal. Most people have more than one console and don't take part in that dumb shit.
              Look at the people already doing it in this thread. They have to shit up every kind of thread when no one else even begins to think that's the reason people here are shitting on this game.
              No, the reason, like someone already said, is Tortanic frickers from discord.
              If that weren't the case, then why does every major game from every major platform get this treatment? If it was just Sony games, sure, you may have a point, but look at Zelda and how much that got shitposted. Look at Elden Ring.
              It's not Nintendo fanboys. It's not Sony fanboys. It's people chasing Tortanic.

      So, if a game doesn't sell well, but it's being praised, then what? It has an 88 on MC.
      Oh wait, anything below a 95 is trash, unless it's a certain game, then they paid for the reviews.
      You people are so inconsistent with your "criticisms".
      One minute, sales matter, the next minute, they don't.

          Or maybe the sony money made up for it and they know itll make the rest of the money when it releases on other shit, or maybe there is no reason and they just did it because squenix is fricking moronic and have had unrealistic sales expectations for at least a fricking decade and the company is clearly run by morons

      No actually nobody is going to buy it on PC either. The game is extremely extremely casual and has no appeal to the PC audience

      The gameplay is even more simplistic and casual than genshin impact. Its greatest competitor and something that everybody on PC already plays

      That's what happened to FF15. Had an abysmal release and was a complete dogshit game and then it came out on PC and all people remember is the Royal Edition. Now I see it praised on this board all the time in FF threads. I find it so crazy to think about as someone that played release FF15. It's like being told my memories aren't real when I try to talk about this game as if that version of the game doesn't exist.

    You havent heard anything but praise because usually said "praise" is coming from people who 1. Dont play many games 2. Are YoshiP/FFXIV cultists. Pretty much everyone that i have talked to has the exact same problem with the game, it was yet another flavor of the month kind of release that is already dying down because there is quite literally nothing to actually "talk" about from an experience that is just generally very formulaic and safe, its not a bad game by any means, but its so boring and safe that discussion around it is pratically impossible, there's nothing really cool to discover, nothing really cool to talk about in terms of lore, because the game pretty much spoonfeeds everything to you, no reward or input from the player whatsoever.
    FFXVI is quite literally a game no one will talk about in a few years, because there really is nothing to unpack here, its quite literally something alot of people will play once and not comeback to it.
