Funny thing about reviewers -
I've a friend who used to write game reviews professionally and while chatting around Christmas time and discussing various games - we talked about W&W and it was obvious that she enjoyed the game far more than her review of the game let on. This wasn't something that she seemed willing to admit. I came away from the conversation feeling that it was more important to demonstrate how discerning her gaming tastes were than to acknowledge that this "flawed" game was a lot of fun and well worth examining by CRPGers.
Fortunately, I ignored her review and bought the game!
