It's incredible how a reviewer can get into peoples minds with a letter and a number... How about READING something before posting about the low number it got???

Basically, the main problem that Famitsu has with the game is the online mode, now tell me, how many JRPG lovers care about the online??? (i play MMORPGs from Japan, but if a JPRG comes without online i wouldn't care as much as i care with the FPS genre)...

Besides, this is Famitsu, the same ones that gave FFXII a 40/40 (i like the game, but not as much as everyone since VI), TLR a 38/40 (And didn't even mention the tech issues), i suggest trying the game before listening to a reviewer, especially one that doesn't have a good reputation (especially in this forums, everyone said that Famitsu reviewed on hype, then the first PS3 JRPG comes out with a bad review and everyone is down already??? hypocrisy much???)

 

 

As I've already said so many times before, its about the fact that Famitsu gives JRPG "higher" scores than comparing to the West. The Last Remnant, Lost Odyssey, Children of Mana, Heroes of Mana, Wild Arms XF even Dragoneers Aria, just a few examples of games that got higher scores from Famitsu but nearly got trashed around here. Heck, Dragoneers Aria got even a higher score from Famitsu than WKC, can you believe it? Really, its true. That's the point... the point that if Famitsu normally scores JRPG's "higher", we can expect trash smashing around here when it concerns WKC. At least, that's what I'm afraid of...

 

But my point is precisely that, people look at a score and make a judgement really fast, when they should read entirely the review before believing a number or a letter-...
