Xenoblade Chronicles X could have gotten a downgrade

I've never said it's not. Just that Sapkowski's is more mature, which in my opinion is an obvious fact. Tolkien is great, but he has always been frank about the fact that he was trying to write a tale for children. On the other hand Sapkowski deals with problems like racism, the search of your identity, etc. Just like Game of Thrones is more mature, so is The Witcher Saga.

When did "Tolkien's works" become The Hobbit and nothing else?  Lord of the Rings is definitely above most children for its depth, at least adolescent level but the target is definitely adults for its vocabulary range alone.  But the Silmarillion?  Children of Hûrin?  Those are most definitely not children's works, not by a long shot.  Those works definitely deal with mature themes.  Just because he is more restrained when it comes to graphicness doesn't make his work "children's" literature.

Hey man, stop putting words in my mouth. I know LotR is more mature than Hobbit, but as I've said he was starting off with the intent to make it another tale for children. Just that things got out of hand and he went with the flow, thankfully Again, I've never said his work is children's literature. It's not. Which doesn't change the fact that other books from other writers can be more mature, right? Or are you saying that it is impossible to be more mature than Tolkien? Seriously, just because there exist more mature books doesn't imply Tolkien is for kids only...
