This is true and it does makes sense, I don't know why some people are convinced that an action-adventure-puzzle game cannot work without being a purist rpg.

But that's not the issue. The real issue is changing the games design. It would be like making a CSI show. But it focuses on figuring out murders, for elephants only. The elephants talk. The cast are elephants. It's still a CSI. But no more humans. Everyone should like that change? Changing whatever, to something else, rarley works out. Because the fans of the series, like the series for what is was. Final Fantasy 13 gets all that hate, for this problem.

 That's an awful comparison anyways. But of course radical changes make fans angry at first, is normal, if the game proves to be good then things may change, who knows, we'll see.
