Does router's antenna direction matter or it is just placebo?

We all have routers with one or more physical antennas on them which can move in many directions. Like I have a router with 4 antennas. But I am not sure If pointing an antenna in a specific direction sort of concentrates the signal in that direction or so.
Will it help if I point all 4 antenna to 4 different directions to get wider coverage or say point all 4 to a single direction to make sure that pointed direction rooms are served well with the Wifi signal?
