wow... i feel completely the opposite!

I posted these impressions on another thread about the game but the thread pretty much died:

I'm playing this game at the moment and im very impressed. Not only are the worlds bigger, the combat better (with flowmotion and spirit combos) as there is a whole pokemon game within the game with tournament 3 on 3 battles aswell. You use cards to battle with the monsters on the colleseum mode and can battle other players through wireless.

Leveling the spirits is also something you want to do as it unlocks many of the special moves and skills.

I'm more than 5 hours into the game and im still on traverse town. So far its better than i thought and shaping up to be the best entry in the series.

The only thing some people might not like, but i think its a real improvement over BBS is the drop system. You will be forced to switch character every now and then. You can get skills to delay the switch timer and you can force it your self anytime you want. The thing is, this way it doesnt feel like a grind and the leveling is shared between your two characters (wich was a pain to start over everytime on BBS). Also, like BBS each character has acess to some exclusive areas and both have thier own sets of treasure to find.

Seems like the second 3rd party hit on the 3DS, after RE revelations.

Today i have hit 8 hours and backtracked to get all the treasure chests on traverse town and had a few more 3 on 3 battles tournaments with my spirits. I had time to take a sneak peak at the grid (tron:legacy) and it looks amazing. Definitly enjoying the game loads.

There is one bad point that i already got used to, wich is the camera. I dont have the CPP, so i have changed the controls to type B just like i did with BBS (aka one button to reset the camera behind your character). The camera reset is a bit unnatural, but i got used to it as i have to stop movement of my character momentarely before i reset the camera, otherwise its gets a bit spinny and difficult to track (for referance the camera isnt worse than any other KH game, it just gets more stressed here because flowmotion speeds up the action considerably).
Easy to overlook with such a fun game though.
