Nah, it's definitely more than a mild annoyance. Introducing gacha elements into single player games is definitely an okay thing to call horrible.

You didn't call it "horrible", you said it was "the worst thing in gaming" and said that it prevented you from enjoying the game.

Again, my counter-argument is that while it's a terrible system it doesn't really prevent you from playing the game well (as you implied by saying you needed specific Blades to get past bosses, which is absolutely not true). I've played RPGs with worse skill growth systems, and it's not too hard to work around this one. Enemies drop Core Crystals like crazy (I already have way more than I know what to do with), all you really need is a varied amount of elements to do well, and Common Blades are just as useful than Rares (and often more so if you get a good one) so it doesn't really impede you to not have a bunch of rares (even if I don't think they're as cool).

I mean, I don't like the system at all, but it's not the worse.
