DQ:S got plenty of websites writing about it. There was one, exactly one, negative POV on the game from that guy over at 1up who literally finds a way to hate anything Wii related. He stated from the parts of the playable game he tested (the very beginning of the game which was all that was playable) the game felt to easy.

Since then you have had people running wild with that one preview and ignoring the other sites positive outlooks that outnumbers that one preview 12 to 1. There was a big issue on the boards about him deeming the entire game to easy based on the first stages that were mainly designed to give you an intro to the game and how to play it. The guy didn't even bother saying the game could be nice so long as the difficulty scales up during the game (what game DOESN'T do this?) He just immediately deemed the game to easy and wrote it off. Its been the single complaint about the game from all of the people who play tested it, and because of that its been stretched and played far beyond what he said.

Ill reserve my judgment for the reviews.

Can you link me this? I haven't seen this uber-negative preview.

He probably means the comments of Shane Bettenhausen from EGM on the podcast i linked to on the previous page: Listen to it here: http://zdmedia.vo.llnwd.net/o1/Podcasts/051807.mp3 Square event stuff starts at 1:51:00, the DQ:S bit starts at 1:55:35. The actual 1up preview by James Mielke was a bit more nuanced, but still mentioned the game is simple and probably just for the children: http://www.1up.com/do/previewPage?cId=3159474
