and in my last post i also showed 4 examples of great games that i traded right back in immediately because i found wanting to play the game at the very bottom of my list of things to do with the game.Arina Love said:"It's turned off some players" and you replied "and "some" players? more like most, have you seen how many people sold back the game? it had utter ridiculous amount of trade ins." AS IN they didn't like it and sold it off and not played through and sold it off. pretty much say it all. i can read and comprehend pretty well thank you.gmaverick019 said:first off, i didn't realize meta critic was the end all decide all of everything..Arina Love said:most? metacritic says another story. it's pretty good reviewed and people liked it. 73 positive vs 1 negative critic reviews and 107 vs 58 user reviews and based on 1399 slice of peoples ratings 1,108 positive 220 negative.gmaverick019 said:....i never said it made it a bad game?Arina Love said:first; it's not all linear (gran pulse) and that's doesn't mean it's bad game. It's turned off some players yeah but i actually liked first 15 hours of linear stuff with character introduction and plot beginning it kept me focused and then on grand pulse it let me to run wiled with side quest and chocobo hunting that i enjoyed for many hours and then got back in story linear mode and kept me focused to deliver beautiful ending. everyone have different tastes.gmaverick019 said:that's wonderful, that doesn't mean the game isn't linear to hell and back though.Arina Love said:speak for yourself. i loved FF XIIIRogerKevin said:FFXIII filthied it up for everyone.
the game is unanimously named with linearity when spoken by word of mouth now, you could basically label the game as god of linearity, at least among the RPG genre.
and "some" players? more like most, have you seen how many people sold back the game? it had utter ridiculous amount of trade ins.
and yeah, it gave it good back story and all, and i'm not saying it's not enjoyable to people, but i was just pointing out it is extremely linear for a good chunk of the game, especially since it's right off the bat.
and do they keep track of everyone that traded in the game after they played it?
i never ONCE said that people didn't like it, i just said on how many traded it back in.
are we speaking different languages here or why do you keep dragging off what i was saying originally?
i liked assassins creed, both 1 and 2, that didn't stop me from trading the game back in as soon as i beat it never to see it again. same goes for bulletstorm and section 8.
please re read exactly what i posted, because what you are saying has nothing to do with my post...and please look around at other posts, i'm not the only one to mention ff13 under the same breath as extremely linear.
most of my console games i have traded in, does that instantly mean that i didn't like them? I'd sure hope not, that'd mean people hate games according to how much business places like gamestop get profit, purely exist because of how much people hate games..
and i'll apologize for coming across like an ass earlier, but my main point isn't that ff13 is a bad game, far from it, the linearity of the game is of very extreme values through the majority of it though.
