I thought I was going to keel over and violently cough up my vital organs during that dinosaur game. Seriously. So awful. How the devs could play that and think "yeah, I think it's finished" is beyond me.
I think people are failing to see the point here. Nobody is saying that the game has to follow Sharon Brown as she has wild crazy adventures pushing papers and feeding her cats. It's everyday characters which encounter extraordinary things that are in debate here. I, for one, don't think it matters. Heavenly Sword was one of the best games I have ever played and Nariko is 'special' in the game - but the story is so wonderfully human it doesn't matter. The key is letting the player project some of themselves into the character, whether they're crazy ass mutants or otherwise.
