But I absolutely cannot get over how bad his writing is. It’s so overindulgent. The man needs editors or something. It’s as if he went to one language class and learned what metaphor is and said to himself “I’ve learned everything I need here” and never bothered to learn about any other literary device . He’s even got unique ideas but I wish he’d just pass them to a better writer. I wouldn’t even mind the long ass cutscenes, if what he were trying to convey made any lick of sense.

I'd restrict that to the first 3 games. 4 and 5 are just dumb.
