FinalEvangelion said: I just started playing it. I'm actually liking this much more than FF13 so far. Usually these Western reviewers tend to dock points for aspects I enjoy in jRPGs (anime-esque features, saving princesses, etc). Bald Space Marines, serving the Empire by helping expel an alien race rather than fighting against it (Empire), no level grinding seem to get you higher points these days on games. And of course shooting is absolutely necessary for it to be "hardcore, bro"... In my first couple hours, its looking to be a low 8 something game so far. FF13 was in the low 7 are for me so far. |
The game got poor reviews in japan though as well.
You can't really blame it on western reviewers.
The real point is... reviews don't actually have any fundamental basis of review ettiquite like other medium's reviews.
