D. Clearwater from Lethbridge, AB, Canada writes: You know, I had a somewhat different response to Bully. I found it boring and simplistic in terms of the narrative and the gameplay. The setting is very interesting and large in scale which could offer a lot of potential... but it just seemed underutilized. The narrative and characters are very banal as is almost all of the dialog and (attempts at) humour... which is too bad because I thought there might be potential here for Rockstar to explore the controversial subject matter in a unique way. Instead, it just falls flat and seems really childish. I agree that the game is linear but I disagree that your character's aggresiveness is always in 'self-defense' because you have nothing really else to do in the game... that's why I found it so simplistic. In that sense, I thought the gameplay and mini-games were too simplistic and restricting. I wanted to be able to explore the world (which is beutifully designed) more, and there are some interesting elements, but overall I was really disappointed and bored.
