FFXIV Dawntrail reviews are out on Metacritic

Guys don't be mean and ignore that 3%, it's all she has

The majority of steam reviews liked the game. Sorry but that's just a fact. It doesn't vibe with the Dawntrail haters narrative but if you think these Steam reviews are at all valuable as a weather vane you need to be able to accept this as true.

Sure,

It also means that the expansion is a mixed reviewed expansion, by both Steam and Metacritic metrics.

52/53% is higher people liking it than not, but it certainly isn't a good outcome by any stretch of the imagination.

At this point you're just making the argument for people that actually don't like Dawntrail or find it to be a mixed reception....

Thank you for highlighting that Dawntrail has mixed reception.

Sorry I know it's frightening but it's true. More people left positive reviews on Steam. The negative reviews are a minority.

A minority is a small percentage. 47% is not small. Its a near 50/50 split. Dawntrail is a mixed reception at best.

According to Oxford English Dictionary, minority is defined as "the smaller number or part, especially a number or part representing less than half of the whole."
47% is less than half of the whole, making it a pretty clear minority.

Girl, the expansion was straight-up sh-t. The end.

No they aren't, these people literally all appeared right after the live letter to counter the "dooming".

And the % doesn't matter. If it's above 50% they'll say "MAJORITAH"

If it's below 50% they'll say "REVIEW BOMB"

I love the way you think.

I would not eat at a restaurant with a 53% positive rating though.

Thanks! Videogames are not restaurants though. It's not like steam reviews mean Dawntrail is 53% good, that's not how it works. If I was curious about a game that I heard was devisive and learned most people liked it, I'd be encouraged to play it.
