So people have wrong opinions then? Because there's tons of people who genuinely liked the game, myself included. And especially there's tons of people who loved the battle system. It can be improved, sure, but it's still nice. The game has its flaws but to some people, it doesn't make the whole game bad. In fact, you can't say a game is 'bad' as a fact when lots of people love it.

no, there are no wrong opinions, but there are wrong facts.  If you like it, I'm honestly happy for you and I wish I could be there alongside you enjoying it as well. The fact of the matter is that the story was horribly told, the characters were flat , the game was linear and restrictive, and the combat system was deeply flawed and in some ways broken.  If you liked the story or had no problem with the way they presented it, awesome.  if you didn;'t mind the linearity or restriction, all the power to you, and if you can ignore the battle system's flaws then I applaud you.  that doesn't mean the game doesn't have these flaws.  

Its like the people telling me that Duke Nukem Forever wasn't a 'bad' game.  Yes it was.  when you have a game that fails or is well below acceptable quality in practically every way, it doesn't matter if people could 'get over it', it's still a bad game.   There are plenty of games I love that aren't that great (like 3D Dot Game heroes for example), but it doesn't mean I disgregard its flaws. On the flipside, there are a lot of games that are fundamentally flawed (FFXIII, Fallout 3) that people are fine with tolerating.  

Doesn't mean the game is good.
