I bought Children of Mana for my Nintendo DS.
It’s one of the worst games I’ve ever played.
I buy a lot of games for my DS to keep me awake at work, this game only lulls me to sleep.
I fully believe that Square doesn’t care about making good games anymore because they know that they have title loyalty. They made Kingdom hearts 2 and Chain Of Memories as shitty as possible, and now they did it again with Children of Mana.
After a half an hour of lame poorly thought out dialogue I got to fight a bunch of the same enemies over and over by mashing the A button. Then I picked up this jewel thing and I got to go to another floor to do the same thing with a different map. I did that 5 times, and I got to the end. It gave me a score and let me equip stuff and ready myself for the boss battle and then because of the misleading menu screen in all of it’s fecal glory put me back at the start of the dungeon again. So I drudged my way back to the boss and pressed the other button that means the same thing as the one I pressed before that allows me to fight the boss. I beat the boss by mashing A. Then after a couple more minutes of shitty dialogue like: “Oh no! An Earthquake! I wonder what’s happening!” I did another dungeon exactly like this one except this one was blue and I got to mash the A button and X button. I made it to the boss and then I died in one hit, which means that I would have to do the same dungeon 2 or 3 times more before I could beat it. So I turned the DS off and wrote a note reminding me to bitch about how shitty it is on the internet, because it will do me a lot of good. I am so gonna put this is red text if I can!
Oh and: FUCK SQUARE ENIX. Yeah, that’s right. I said it.
