Understandable. I myself never even heard of the Drakengard or Nier series prior to that. I knew nothing about them. I only came across a trailer, was impressed by the graphics, and took the plunge after reading some reviews (not all of them were good). I was aware I could still have been disappointed with it in all other aspects, but that is an inherent risk that is unavoidable in anything you purchase. If I had that kind of mindset, I probably wouldn't have come to love the many games I've played over the years if I relied heavily on confusing/mixed reviews.
