I'm almost finished with my first playthrough, and I gotta say, I love this game.

I'd say it's probably my 3rd favorite FF behind FFVI and FFX, though 10 and 13 are close.  May change spots.

A lot of people say the battle system is boring, I don't find it to be boring at all.  I get the feeling that the people who hate it set it to one Paradigm and never shift unless they absolutely have to.  I'm always thinking about how to maximize my battle strategies, often switching paradigms every few seconds.  It's fun!  But it may not be for everyone.  There's a lot of strategy to it, if you want to get into it, and for me, it's extremely engaging and never gets boring.

 

Also, the story is good and the music and voice acting and graphics are all top-notch.  What more could I ask for in a game?

No. Don't imply that we don't know how the mechanics work. I still don't get how Paradigm cancelling makes the battle system more "intense". I have to admit at first I thought it was a glitch. Anyways... and switching between buff/debuff defensive classes to a 2 Ravagers plus Commando build (while switching with another every now and then to Paradigm cancel) to 3 Commandos for maximum damage midway into a long battle isn't what I call strategy when that's what you do for 50 hours. It's just common sense when the enemies have over 9 billion HPs most of the time!

You like the game so I won't try to make you hate it. These are just my thoughts so take them with a grain of salt if you want.



Random game thought :
Why is Bionic Commando Rearmed 2 getting so much hate? We finally get a real game and they're not even satisfied... I'm starting to hate the gaming community so f****** much...
