I just finished reading it. At least he went into a lot of detail about why he didn't like the game. Common complaints among reviewers is that the game is too grindy, and has too many complicated systems. I can't really fault him for not liking that aspect of the game. He did include the usual "Voice acting is terrible, because I don't know anything about the Japanese patch" fallacy though. I also noticed that he didn't even finish the game, yet wrote a review anyway. So unprofessional. 

Edit: I can respect the Kotaku writer's opinion a lot more though, because he actually backed up what he said with explanations. That's all I want out of a review. Don't simply say that it's bad or good. Say why it's bad or good. That and do your research on the game. And finish the damned thing. 

It's Kotaku. I don't value their opinion, because I consider them non-gamers as a whole. This review only confirmed it to me, even if he dispalye in depth how didn't understand jrpg's imo.

He did play and like other JRPGs like Persona 5. I think the Xenoblade series just rubs him the wrong way.
