the game was flawed (at least japanese version) and it brings nothing really new to the JRPG
an average game getting average score and average sales

Who cares if t brings something new? A great game is a great game.

Well said.  Of course a game that innovates and brings something radically new should be praised for it and recieve higher scores but you don't need to dock a great game if it's the same old greatness over again.
