After reading your review I truly believe you are one of the few people who truly understand the depth of the game. The combat system comes alive once you learn you can do Fatal Eclipse, or Blackout with ease and then the game really shows it's true colors. I really enjoyed reading you take on the game probably because I really understood the game and it seemed to me you did as well.

Thanks for the feedback. Usually when gamers fail to see the qualities in a game that's as good as The Last Remnant, those gamers are to blame. In this case, though, it's easy to see why so many people honestly have no clue what the game has to offer. My goal in writing the review was to bring those little-known strengths to light, but I couldn't give Square-Enix a free pass given how badly it dropped the ball and created the problem in the first place.

"What if everything you see is more than what you see--the person next to you is a warrior and the space that appears empty is a secret door to another world? What if something appears that shouldn't? You either dismiss it, or you accept that there is much more to the world than you think. Perhaps it really is a doorway, and if you choose to go inside, you'll find many unexpected things." - Shigeru Miyamoto on secret doors to another world2

Yeah, I agree with you on that one. The game was complex enough that some gamers would give up but it was also that complexity that gave those who stuck with the game such enjoyment.
