This week, we continue our foray into "The World" with the first video game tie-in project of project dot hack.  While the vibe, music, characters, voice acting all feel appropriate, the "game" part leaves a lot to be desired.  I suppose that is something you can't escape.  Even G.U. suffers from repetitiveness.  But for a title with so much promise, to be this let down by procedural generation, sameness, and a lacking "gameplay loop," really does a disservice to what should be a fascinating experience.
