If the majority didn't like the game, it wasn't a success. So I don't think anyone is pretending, as much of a fan of the series I am, I'm a gamer first and the gameplay in that game was terrible, I could literally just mash attack and win every battle up until chapter 11 pretty much aside from maybe one or two boss battles. The story was average at best, characters hardly memorable besides a few of the main cast and there wasn't much at all to do until the very end of the game. I mean throughout most of the game you're in tutorials and you're almost always seperated. The one thing they got right was the world and graphics. So in my opinion if they couldn't get it right within all the development time it took for 13 I'm kind of skeptical, but I wouldn't mind a yearly release since they finally have their engine ready & tweaked.
