Fight or flight.
When I hear the term “role-playing,” terrible things come to mind. Corporate training classes. Uncomfortable marriage counseling sessions. Eighth-grade Saturday nights. All things that I don’t care to experience or revisit…sober.
The video game RPG has much more potential, aspiring to be a totally different beast. And yet certain unshakable “role-playing” elements seem to drag down even the best titles,…

Fabulous battle system
-
That leads to interesting strategy
-
A few good characters
-
That are thoroughly wasted
-
Disastrous storytelling
-
Woefully linear
-
No side-quests?
