As a longtime Nintendo fan, all I can say is this: "Been there, done that, burned the frickin T-shirt." The appropriate words to describe the kind of behavior Square-Enix (and Square before them) has shown throughout the history of the industry would probably be a violation of the TOS, but suffice to say that it emulates some far... older professions. Of course, the same could be said of almost every company in this business, but S-E seems to jump at it far more eagerly than most.
Complexity is not depth. Machismo is not maturity. Obsession is not dedication. Tedium is not challenge. Support gaming: support the Wii.

What do I hate about modern gaming? I hate tedium replacing challenge, complexity replacing depth, and domination replacing entertainment. I hate the outsourcing of mechanics to physics textbooks, art direction to photocopiers, and story to cheap Hollywood screenwriters. I hate the confusion of obsession with dedication, style with substance, new with gimmicky, old with obsolete, new with evolutionary, and old with time-tested.
There is much to hate about modern gaming. That is why I support the Wii.
