As I said it is loopy to the layman because, well, it’s loopy.

The greater issue is that VIII fundamentally rewrites the entire franchise and not in a good way. I hated the slow speed chase so we could have side-quests that went nowhere. Hated it. I’m not sure what I’m supposed to care about in the next installment. I’m stunned that they didn’t map out a single story told in three parts.

But, hey, if you liked it then that’s okay by me too. I’m not pissing about it to change opinions - just don’t understand how you F up a classic franchise so bad when you could have done so many interesting things that wouldn’t alienate so many fans. Personally, I think KK deserves all the credit and/or blame for so completely mucking everything up but having worked as a producer on films and TV that have gone off the rails I know how easy it is for things to get SNAFU’d even with the best intentions.
