Does every Square Enix game seem like style over substance nowadays?

Does every Square Enix game seem like style over substance nowadays?

Yes, they do. Price over style over substance, I'd say.

Except their recent games, Dungeon Encounters.

Was skipping video parts then I glimpsed that weird gamma-ray skull then I saw the white hair on the soldiers helmet and started laughing! This video was so stupid.. Well the couple seconds I saw from it was enough. To preserve sanity.

Well its a Platinum game - it has to be extremely fun and over the top. See for example Metal Gear Revengence and Vanquish - unequaled fun!

So I am scratching my head trying to figure this out. It's an... action "mystery dungeon" game according to the tags on Steam. I know what an action game is, I know what mystery dungeons are (kinda, they're a weird genre ) - I can't for the life of me even after watching trailers figure out exactly what this animal is.
