Why so pessimistic? While I loved the UBW route, a lot of the crucial fighting scenes are littered with monologue that repeats the key thoughts two or three times for the sake of emphasizing the moment due to the nature of the visual novel medium. Now I'm not saying they'll definitely do it right, but it sure is plausible. I'd rather remain optimistic based on what little I've seen so far then try to make myself feel better by anti-jinxing the movie "break-a-leg" style and lowering my expectations so early.
