I wonder why when an unhyped underdog games gets great reviews, everyone questions it, but when an overhyped, paid off piece of shit sequel with added online gets perfect scores from IGN, everyone can't help but believe it's the best game ever made before they even play it.

I can't believe the skepticism.

How bout this. Play the game because Zenfoldor told you to. If I tell you wrong, blame me, for all to hear. That'll be the fucking day though.

I think you are missing the point of why most people don't care to play this game. It's like when Brokeback Mountain came out. It's an amazing movie, has great acting, it's an awesome western, it's an epic love story, all these great things that I want in a movie. Except for the fact that I had no desire to see a love story about two men and a lot of other people felt the same way. No matter how great you say it is, it doesn't change that fact. 

If there is a character that people don't like, then they wont want to see that character succeed. They wont want to go on a journey with this character and they don't want to like this character. For some people either they have no problem liking the character already or they simply don't care about characters that much. For others it's vital and they will simply move on to the next game with the characters that interest them. If the gameplay is that good it will be duplicated in future games with better characters.
