The original was a FF/Disney crossover nobody asked for, subject to bemusement/confusion when first announced, but it over-delivered with engaging story and gameplay.

They just know you weighted these two voices with equal credibility, and they are now more likely take the urine drinker at face value.

"Yes, the device is cool -- you want me to pay HOW MUCH?" was the note.
