two of five editiors said it's no game for them because they hate jrpgs and one said he doesn't like them but still plays it. so, that is obviously a review of a guy who likes those games and it doesn't mean every magazine/site will give those scores since we often see guys reviewing a genre they don't like (sad but true)
