Whats the problem MMORPG.com?

So i saw the post about the rating of the game and how some was from 1.0 and i agree that because this is a new game it should have a new rating . Then i see MMORPG.com came out and said go ahead rate the game . Well check the rating MMORPG.com gives it a 5.1 USER rating is a 9.2  http://www.mmorpg.com/gamelist.cfm/game/446/Final-Fantasy-XIV-A-Realm-Reborn.html SO what gives MMORPG.com you biased to a company or producer not giving this game the justice it deserves or you lost in all the F2P garbage out there ? witch is it .

    I hope they come with an official review later on. Would like to hear their thoughts:P.

    Or alternatively, people are reflexively playing a tug of war with the game's ratings and the user rating is only indicative of how moody the user base is about the title in question.

    The current rating by MMORPG.com is based on the first iteration of the game. We'll be re-reviewing FFXIV: ARR over the next several weeks with the score likely to change.


    ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    Same here, but i'm afraid it'll be one of the "reviews in progress" that comes in three parts and says quite little in the end.

    To be honest i rather read one of the good user reviews that appear every now and then in the forums.

    its a re-launch and its an entirely different game from 1.0.

    I think 2.0 needs a whole new review from scratch.

    If the game was made by SOE, we would have seen a 9 + rating for sure from this site. I'm looking at you EQN *cough*.

    cool because if i was a new player interested in the game and came to MMORPG.com to see the rating it is misleading ( in about 90% of the peoples opinions i am sure )

    What Suzie said! The rating of 9.2 is from all user ratings submitted since the launch of the game (8/27). We managed to preserve those while resetting the 1.0 reviews.
