PSN should allow game reviews

You can offer and check out user reviews on Metacritic. The same place that FIFA21 got a 1.8 (out of 10) user rating on PS, and a 1.1 user rating on XBOX.

A simple google search will get you reviews
Again, you can't trust the paid commercial reviews. Everyone knows that.
I trust folks, just like the ones in this forum that have shared things I've seen and experienced countless times, that have purchased the game and regret it.
There is no greater source than those customers that have paid for and played any game. Those that don't have an agenda to be anything but honest.

Bro… seriously.

When the game works its alot fun, But sadly it only works in about 5-10% of total ranked games.

It's like this..I've become so jaded by the artificial elements in most all online sports gaming platforms, I would never buy into another one that I saw a pattern of unhappy customers emphasizing the randomized/DGDB game play.
I can guarantee you ever customer that has posted angst and frustration about the experience with this game..would be more than happy..chomping at the bit in fact..to spend an hour or so leaving a heartfelt review. Share the negative experiences on a neutral and far-reaching stage like PSN or Microsoft.
You know how many products I've avoided on Amazon because of key points in reviews? At least 50%. Give all us gamers a chance to educate the perspective buyers on the very platform that's selling it. Again, this should have been implemented years ago.
Any company that's worth a flying fruck should have enough confidence in their product to let the customers that paid for the product to give their opinions. But, there is a lot of fear from PSN in opening that Pandora's Box. Wouldn't be a good biz decision.
You have way more faith in humanity than I do, I would bet that most players who feel the angst would rather write something like "LOL this sucks" rather than some hour long well-written review.
Now don't take that as a defense of no reviews, I do think PSN should allow reviews.
I like clarity. Love to spell it out. With attention to detail.
"This game sucks" or "This game rocks" is no better than giving 1 star or 5 stars. Tells you nothing.
It's rare that you see great reviews or terrible reviews on Amazon (the king and pioneer of product reviews) that don't have a fairly involved explanation.

Absolutely agree, I was just stating that because you said
"can guarantee you ever customer that has posted angst and frustration about the experience with this game..would be more than happy..chomping at the bit in fact..to spend an hour or so leaving a heartfelt review. "
Most people don't know or don't care enough to express themselves in that way, so every customer that has ever posted would not be chomping at the bit to spend an hour on a review, most wouldn't even spend a minute.
To your amazon bit, I would bet it depends on the product and who is it catered to, some genres I bet it would be much less common to see tons and tons of well thought out reviews.

Ha. You would probably guess I've left some doozies on Amazon. I've also left some pretty glowing reviews that had multiple "this helped" replies. Maybe putting more into it than I actually accomplished, but I believe I've influenced many purchases.

Yep..sometimes there is. Also Reddit. But they just don't accomplish what having reviews tied into the Purchase button would. At the very moment you're thinking about investing your hard-earned bucks..you can peruse verified customer experiences right there. The power of that is power indeed.

Also, since most people are going to be buying them on their PS or XBox console, how are they supposed to type a detailed review using a controller? Not many people have a keyboard connected to their consoles or are using Remote Play or the Xbox equivalent connected to their pc.
