I am about 4 hours in, and I have to say it is growing on me. Mainly the enemys though. The combat also gets deeper and deeper the more you play. But it is still a shallow pool at where i am at. Thats all i got for now lol

Well the combat sounds engaging at least. That's a big plus for me. Is the battle system fast paced at all? One of the main problem I had with Lost Odyssey was that the combat was too slow.


Thats because Lost Odyssey is a traditional JRPG. FFXIII isn't. It's becoming quite evident with the main franchise the traditional turn-based style is dying out for a quicker paced style. Less strategy is involved to tell the truth. For a large portion of the formal chapters you can survive by merely pressing x and letting the game auto fight for you. Whats engaging are the battle animations. It's interesting to look at until you realize your presence is useless.
