I normally don't hop on the overrated wagon because I don't hype myself up for any game, no matter how many people swear it changed their life and made them complete. But Vagrant Story is one I was disappointed in... It's not really a huge 'hit' so I'm not sure it can qualify as overrated... But almost all who played it swear it's the greatest Square game and game critics all around gave it the highest scores. I was bored playing it, switching weapons constantly... I can't switch weapons...anymore...urgh.

And what I don't get about it is that people are always saying it's so underrated, and overlooked. But I'm constantly hearing about people going on and on and on about it. Blegh.

I mean, I don't know about most overrated, but it's definitely up there.
While I really enjoyed Xenogears, there are definitely aspects like this that were overrated. I can only find the willpower to play through the game twice because the translation is horrible and the dungeon design just makes me want to throw down the controller and take a nap. I got to the Nortune sewers on my second time and almost quit altogether. And I'm a person who plays through games lots and lots. Xenogears is certainly not the best Ps1 RPG in existence like many claim. I'm one of the few people that would ever say Xenosaga (despite its own flaws) is a better project from that team

So many are listing FFVII :O_O: Poor VII, a lot dislike you these days. I still love you Cloud and company
