Because there's room for different things. FFXII does things differently from other FFs and though it doesn't have random encounters, I still think it's a fantastic game. Heck, it's those unique aspects that I love most about it.

Just because I like one aspect doesn't mean I hate the opposite. I like both random encounters and monsters walking about, both turn-based and action-based.

And what about you, Sky? What games hated by the Internet so you like?
