Now granted my enjoyment of this game is likely to be more disturbed by the battle system, but at least it’s with this series, and the only thing that binds the games solidly aside from a terrible take on metaphysics, granted in a less serious way Bioshock Infinite did it badly.
The one thing and one way enjoyment can be destroyed is not only the Torna extended story was better than the main one, but the fact Legendary Crystal Cores are the least likely to find rare blades in the endless lotto.
The thing that has hit me in the translation, may be slammed easily, if not thought about. Since it’s subtext and not preached. It’s the notion of English or British drivers are Enslaving American Blades by the leash and can easily smack of colonialism.
Really it points to a great foreign policy problem since WWII, treating the British like good allies made bitches of the United States (even WWI, but that was more due to a false flag attack by Minister of War Winston Churchill on an American ship, blamed on the Germans). WWII to current, basically the US war machine has been twisted around British fingers sending CrusAide to British Colonial Spots and in WWII (not caring a thing for Jews) the US went in for a whimpering limp dicked English or British military machine. They will claim it was all their success however. Jumping into the European end of the Axis was what made Pearl Harbor a sitting duck (as the Japanese do know), when the US could have easily prepared to collect Canada and England owned Carribean Islands to keep Hitler out of North America.
As it is without picking sides in Europe it would just take one fight in a Russian Winter to stalemate it into an eventual loss for both Soviet and SS lowlife.
No matter British interest in controlling old colonial Middle East locations, even to the Success of Israel, as with it’s eventual desire to regain the US by inspiring a growth a Permenent Civil Service (a British Tradition) through big Government and Pro-War Globalism.
Basically the disturbing view of the American on a British Leash is a lesson of US foreign policy errors. Know your Enemy.
