I guess I'm the only one that's starting to get fatigued by all the games seemingly wanting us to play in some apocalyptic setting.
Also, the statement concerning boring American sensibilities is not talking about girls swinging 500 pound swords. It's a general sentiment about America in that despite being the so-called media capitol of the world and home of Hollywood, it's surprising how...tame Americans are in regards to the media they both enjoy and create vs much of the rest of the world. I mean, hey, we're on an anime board. Anyone who's watched anime should be able to tell just how tame American media is compared to anime. And, that's just Japanese society. I've found it to be true vs most European societies as well. Especially when it comes to video games. Most of the more mature, and/or pushing the boundaries type of video games I've played were not made by American studios.
