Why is predictable a bad thing?  Even forgetting about foreshadowing, how many stories start with the ending where you know exactly what is going to happen?

And then even something as simple as Uncharted where I know Drake is going to win and get the girl in the end, it's not all about the twist at the end I never saw coming, it's more about the journey.

The journey that portrays him as a smug douchebag with a complete disregard for the lives of everyone else and no interest in anything besides making enough money to buy more hair gel. That guy is completely dehumanised.

Once again, I'm talking about the characters, one element of the story, not the story as a whole.

And Lightning is and the rest of the people in XIII are likeable?  I admit I didn't finish XIII, but none of those characters were too fantastic.

And then if you look at XII, every character in that game was worthless, had no reason to be there, or a giant cunt (Ashe).
