I dont know about the other points but the bolded part seems to be not true based on everything I read before. The battle system should be the best part on FF13 and not just this I read often its the best battle system of all FFs just read the first threads here or some more reviews.
One of the reviewers which gave the game a 7/10 said that the battle system is the crownjewel of the game and one of the best he ever experienced.
More of a Video then a game ? The first 10 hours in FFX were pretty much like this FMVs all the time.
FFs is always linear extremly linear look at FFX people tend to hate FF12 and say FFX is better but now FF13 seems to be like X and people hate it even more ??
gil too low ? What does it mean ? Gil are completly worthless in most FFs they are just there to buy potions in the beginnig or to upgrade your weapons but infact Gils have almost never a good use. I never grinded to get gils because they are worthless.
to OP:
A 4/10 is trolling. If you list what games get a 4/10 its almost the same class as SouthPark the game its ridiculous I could understand a 6/10 but a 4/10 is just to get attention and clicks.
I dont care about any score Every FF I played was good or excellent. And I bet that once the game is out most people will revise their opinion and after 5 years a lot of people will say its a good game. I remember FFX was disliked by many on the beginning especially before they played it and I heard the same things about it. The exact same problems. To linear more like a Video then a game etc etc. because people tend to play just 10-15 hours. But its just 10% of the total gaming time
The most hatred comes from people which dont like FFs that much they play just the story as quick as possible and dont even know about the real quality of FF.
Look at those selling numbers FF13 has to be atleast a decent game because the drop of is less then expected. If it would be bad the drop off would be higher then usual not the same or lower.
Infact it shows pretty good strength for FF. It sold 113k in its third week considering the userbase and the weak start its good. I think its because of good word of mouth. It will cross 2 Million which is fantastic on a a userbase of just 4.5 million. The game is good and even if he didnt like it he should have been objective as possible and give the game a 6/10 but a 4/10 is like an E. If you would list all the 4/10 games you would notice pretty quickly FF13 wont fit in. And because of the button smashing argument I read its one of the hardest FFs of all time. This cant be true.
I think it will sell better then FFXII in the West which is quite an achievment.
