Quote:And Anachronox tries to copy the console-style RPG, so of course it's pretty similar to FF.
That was my point, you know... that there are American console RPGs made in a console-RPG style... you made it sound like there were none. :)

Fine, you aren't saying that. Then you have no point... since you certainly can't say that any of the elements the game combines were invented for that game, or are at all unique. Is it different? Well... not really. I mentioned games that include every gameplay element that matters... many with several. Some come really close. And every (good) game has something that makes it different... AW has some, but it doesn't push the genre or anything. Its just a good, simplistic in design strategy game... a very well done one, but hardly genre-bending or anything.
