This thread proves that most people don't have a bloody idea about what epic means:

–adjective Also, ep⋅i⋅cal.
1. noting or pertaining to a long poetic composition, usually centered upon a hero, in which a series of great achievements or events is narrated in elevated style: Homer's Iliad is an epic poem.

not everyone has the same expectations, you're generalizing.

Wait what? Somebody posts a fact and it is generalizing? Also what does expectations have anything to do with his post. He was arguing toward the true meaning of "Epic" and whether the people posting in the thread knew what the correct meaning or not. He wasn't arguing against anybody's opinon on the game.

Yeah, the desription of the game does fit an epic. If people had different expectations, that does not change the definition.

Not really, when their basis for their expectations are a screenshot and a title, both of which have very little to do with determining whether or not something is an Epic. Also notice how these people use it as an "Adjective" and not a "Noun". If they knew the correct definition, they would use it in the correct way, and as the correct form of speech. You can argue toward the language evolving, and new word meanings, but as of right now there is very little basis and until made official for 'epic' having the definition 'some' ascribe it to having. Whatever though, I accept that linguistic values change and the meaning of words change so I guess anything can be classified as 'correct' taking that into consideration.  What you posted is very correct though. There is only one expectation you can have as of now, with the specific definition, and every other "expectation" will is actually unqualified a epic unless it has some connect where it can be described as such. If it doesn't, they must find another word or officially change the meaning of the word in order for the statement to fit.
