Well, i tried Lost Swords for a while months ago, and i wasn't really impressed.
In all honesty, i think SCVI should retcon SCV and take on where SCIV left off. Obviously that whole time jump was a major turn-off for a lot of people, and as far as i know SCV had really poor sales. People didn't really like the new characters, and most people flat out hated what they did to the story mode, how it was all centered around that whiny Patroklos.
I mean, in the end the game play matters more than story, but when you set a game 17 years after the last one, you're kinda obligated to explain what happened and who all these new characters really are and where they came from.
I remember Daishi teasing so many things on twitter in the year before the release, and a whole lot of it never made it into the game. Even replied to personal messages with stuff that never made it into the game.
That whole experience killed the mood for me.
