Sooner or later, though, after poking around in three or four quests -- the most any hardcore role-playing gamer who doesn't love 7th Saga is going to be able to stomach -- we'll grow tired of this game's world
I think this sums up his entire review. Ya know, Timmy, maybe you wouldn't find games like the SaGa series so horribly confusing if you'd READ THE ****ING MANUAL!!!!! Any idiot who's purchased Final Fantasy Origins or Dawn of Souls can tell you the "mysterious voodoo magic" process involved in raising your stats. Granted, there's a lot that WASN'T documented about the game, but that's not the fault of the game designers so much as it is the fault of the manual writers. This whole article reads like a whiney fanboy having a hissy fit that some insolent developer somewhere dared to release a game that wasn't FFVII. Perhaps if he spent as much time and energy trying to learn the mechanics of the game as he did using his MS word thesaurus --and as many asides as possible-- in an effort to pass himself off as someone of importance and authority, he would actually come off as what he was trying to sound like. Instead, he sounds more like the sort of person who spent 5 minutes playing the game, threw his controller across the room and called it "the gayest thing ever". It's a well known fact that Akitoshi Kawazu's games are unpopular in the US. Taking shots at them is like making fun of the fat kid. You COULD do it, it'd be very easy to do, but you'll just come off seeming like a complete jerk and ruining ANY chances of finding some sort of female companionship (or male companionship for that matter), all without improving your social standing or impressing anyone. Then again, this is the same guy who thought FFVI was overrought and anti-climatic, so I guess I'm going against my own advice here by typing this, in that I'm making fun of someone who's essentially a sitting duck for insults. ICONOCLASM ONLY WORKS IF YOU'RE POINTING OUT REAL FLAWS IN SOMETHING THAT IS ACTUALLY POPULAR IN A MAINSTREAM SENSE!!!

Is that enough of a dispute?
