Well.

Two hours into the game.

It's very interesting, though it's also making some fundamental fumbles in the opening.

Such as? I felt "meh" about the game up until i got out onto Bionis' Knee, then it started to pick up. Curious about what you had problems with.

Too long an introduction without the proper hook action-wise

Too much shit to keep track of

Too many gameplay systems and menus

Majora's Mask is the only JRPG that ever justified having a damned quest log

Can't really dispute any of that, though some of those menus are damn useful. You can control the time of day and quick-warp anywhere you've ever visited except during sensitive moments of the story. It is all thrown at you a bit quickly, however, and i often forgot what some functions did or it took me many gameplay hours to discover or rediscover them. Though i must say i haven't been playing a game for this many hours per day since, oh, Monster Hunter Tri or so.
