And read the review, seems fair enough.
FFXII did the same thing-- they both made you play through 20 or so hours of bad before it finally gets good, just apparently the bad in XIII is worse than the bad in XII.
I don't care so much about the linear stuff and the no towns, I actually like not having to deal the inventory, but I don't like being punished for the first 20 or so hours of a game.
Since that has been a fairly consistent thing in reviews, I'm probably going to pass on this game.
