I like the story, and yeah the writing's a bit overdone, but it's not bad. Hey, the game's not even close to being done, right? Give it some time, it's far too early for Eoff, er, us to be picky, k?
Actually, given that the game is coming out in Japan shortly (nine weeks), it's probably almost completely done if not already completely done.
I'm referring to the English, i.e. lip-synching, melodramatic translation.
Story and smurfola is done and there's nothing we can do about it.
