That's great and all - and we know This FF is a love letter to past ones. But those games were also old, so lets not hand wave it as an excuse for some of these issues with current writing. I don't think anyone was asking for they hyperbolic "Final Reality" but considering one of the major themes deals with a very heavy REALITY issue. I do feel that they could have tightened up those holes a bit better.

So let's not use past nostalgia as an excuse for people being a little more aware of writing issues in modern times.
