Predict ARR review scores?

nothing in this game thats new so no way it can get more then average score. everything has been done before. it more like everything else on the market.

#1 issue will be the battle system, #2 will be lack of innovation, #3 like everything else.

But it does everything better than what's been done before.

And the battle system is not going to be universally abhorred the way some people think; it's a compromise and that's why people at either end of the spectrum (100% action vs passive) complain about it. For the rest of us it sits comfortably in the middle.

You don't have to do something brand new to get great press or reviews. You can do something that's been done before and do it well and get a 10/10. Look at Mario Galaxy or countless other Square Enix, Nintendo, or Konami games.

im just saying what the reviews will most likely say.

the 10/10 games did innovate in there genre in there own way no one did before or they went above and beyond.

I agree that reviewers will likely comment upon points #1 and #2, but point #3 feels like an overstatement to me, no viciousness meant!

^_^ Also, I like your name. I've bumped into it a few times on the behindthename website.
