2. SO CLOSE~!

10. HOLY CRAP a teacher? That's messed up, I'm so sorry D:

16. I'm not sure if you're a FF fan or just an VIII fan, but most the people that hate Rinoa are whiny yaoi fangirls. I prefer the other two girls to her and I don't really see what the big deal is with her, but she is really pretty :D Don't be scared to join it if you want to join it, but it'd be awesome if you'd cosplay as her ♥

18. I hate Kingdom Hearts for other reasons :D The first one made me love Donald and Goofy even more ♥

22. I heard that the cut scenes in Xenosaga 4 were like 30 minutes a piece, which is why I'll never play it D:

There's an Episode IV now? Episode III is reportedly the last in the series. Unless new news came out.

Xenosaga I's longest cut scene was 45 minutes, and that was actually composed of several cutscenes in a row.

Xenosaga II had way shorter cut scenes, mostly because the fans complained the ones in episode I were too long. Then they complained the scenes were too short.

Episode III uses a combinations of actual cut scenes and more dialog boxes for a balance.

Well, I could have misread the box, but I could have sworn that box said IV on it.

My friend said she liked watching her husband play the game because it was more like watching a movie with the cut scene length. It may have been one and I just misread the box ^^;

A lot of people do joke that Xenosaga is the "best movie they ever played."

Some people, like me, love the cut scenes. Other people hate them. I personally think it's quite rewarding to beat one of those particularly hard bosses and be rewarded with gobs of story that hang tons of info in front of your face, yet you can't figure out how to piece it together.

Ninety-five percent of the time, it's the cut scene lengths that cause people to hate the game, not the fact that the story is complex or the gameplay is boring. Most Xenosaga fans were pissed off with the switch to a more traditional RPG system in Episode III. (I myself, like that system the best) The cut scenes are the make or break factor. If you can't stand long cut scenes, then you will hate Xenosaga. With a passion. If you can take or like cut scenes, you'd probably end up liking the game.
