Well while the story was pretty easy to beat, the real challenge is with the quests online. I knew it was going to be heavily online based when I bought it so I was not dissappointed in it whatsoever. I still dont understand why this game got lamented for things other games got away with...
-The whole enemies hitting you from a distance thing, FFXII is also guilty of that as well as many early RPGs where the characters didn't even move from their spot to attack. Why is it that people forget this is a turn based RPG at heart? Its just like FFXIII, FFXII,FFXI, etc. Thats why there is an ATB bar, it just allows you to run around while battling because having the party stand in a row when they attack is ludicrous in this day and age. It's not Kingdom Hearts which is a true Action RPG with no ATB just raw hack and slash and stat building.
-Level 5 built the story to be accessible(maybe too much). The story is meant to be played for just that, the story. Then they expected everyone to move on to the online portion. Thats where all the real challenge lies. Trying to get "S" rank in all the quests is no easy task. It requires precision of a team and proper skill usage. I like the fact that there is never any RIGHT way to face an enemy, only ANOTHER way. Magic is useful but not necessary. I personally mostly use it to eliminate huge numbers of enemies fast.This may be something Monster Hunter fans can understand and I definitely see the inspiration WKC took from those games.
-ATB meter moves just as fast or even faster then most turned based JRPGs(WHich is what this game really is). Also your armor and weapon are what controls how fast it goes. If you wear light armor and use smaller weapons it will be really fast. All you twitch players should experiment with that.
-Yes I do agree the story was too short but it was sweet.
-Yes there was definitely also many reused mobs but this sort of thing never bothered me. I don't know why it matters how many different looking enemies a game has.
