I went to write a review a few days ago and was typing away happily... until it said that I had run out of characters. After much head-scratching, I noticed that the character limit for reviews has dropped from 4000 to 3000.

3000?! Geez! Why did this happen? I'm assuming it's to do with the increased size of the website or something technical like that, but 4000 characters gave me the freedom to write reviews which - in my opinion - were good, as I could cover everything I wanted to. Now I find myself too restricted and unable to cover every aspect of the game.

I'd campaign for it to change, but the last time I tried something like that it caused a lot of bother.

3000? by'ek!

4000 was never enough to write a complete review. Now 3000? That's only about a paragraph.

Maybe so... but as I said before, I do like to cover every aspect of the game and in 3000 characters I find this an extremely difficult task to pull off.
