I don't think Awakening's story is that bad. It's just nothing special compared to the other entries in the series. Also 7 is not the greatest game. Don't get me wrong, it's fantastic. But me? I honestly think that Path of Radiance is far superior to 7. Finnaly I don't like Robin and Lucina. Aside from making a godly Morgan, I just don't think they are a great couple.
