Do you mean the first dissertation where he said stuff and I made my point afterwards, or do you mean the second where his point was "FFXIII's story isn't worse than these stories" and I said "Wait, people actually liked the story you're saying it isn't worse than?" Maybe it's just me, but that seems to address the point pretty clearly. "It isn't worse than these stories." "Yes, but those stories aren't very good either." Though I can't really speak for KoToR since I haven't played it.
Unless of course you mean the stuff he edited in after I made my post, in which case you're looking for reasons to hate me now.
EDIT: Actually, the part I'm talking about isn't until closer to the end. And no I don't speak Japanese. I'm just that lazy. I'll go into more detail about the plot points that don't make sense to me without the datalog once you beat the game. As for characters not starting off likable being hated forever... maybe. I'm trying to think of a counterexample, but you might be right on my reasoning. Of course, I wasn't really attached to any of the party's endgame personalities either, so that might be playing a role, too. I dunno, I'll think on it more. As for the
Serah death thing, I actually have an idea on how a couple things like this could have been done better, which I'll go into more detail when I have more time on my hands. Lastly, I don't think I said anything positive or negative about FFVII here. I don't remember it well enough to think fondly or poorly of it, so all my memories are of Advent Children and Crisis Core. Oh well!
