Totally disagree with you on the story part. I though PoR far outdid Dawn of Sorrow. However, I do agree with you 100% on DoS being far more fun to play than Portrait, but for me the main reason's because of the beautiful wintery environment...granted, something felt strange, but it was really good. I ADORE the demon guest house.
The art for the characters sucked though, and the storyline was atrocious beyond comprehension!
I am begging that Kojima's back, but I'm split on trusting whether that'll happen or not.
Munchy, I doubt it'll be as rushed, because they're already several months into it (I'm going to speculate at least 5 months of development), since Koji's been talking about this one for a while.
