How is this a community review?

As to the game, if we look at it rationally, we can't but praise everything in it. When it comes the time to rate it though, we feel it is an eight-out-of-ten game. It lacks that something that places unforgettable gaming experiences apart from all the rest; and I wouldn't know how to pinpoint what it is that it lacks, but I trust my feeling, and it doesn't surprise me to see an 8/10 score here.

I posted the review as a community review because there is already a staff review associated with the game profile, and in general I like to leave the number of staff reviews at 1. But I wanted to review the game anyway, so posting it as a reader review was the way to go. It's something that happens on the site on occasion, any time a staffer decides to cover a game the site has already discussed. Anyway, thanks for reading!

"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
