Gameplay looks fine to me, graphics are great, has good reviews. Why not?

I bought it for 10€ and felt cheated out of my money.

Its a corridor game, the story is non-sensical, the charaters one dimensional, the combat requires one button. It was the first game i ever fell asleep while playing due to how bored i was... and i love Jrpg's.

I say spare yourself the agony, but if you must try it to believe it go for it. I would say Lightingreturns is the only tolerable one. But after XIII i onlyplayed the demos of the sequals.

This sums up my feelings about it pretty well actually. The plot, or lack there of, was terrible as well as the goal of the game. What story there is really hard to understand, with a lot of made up words and is non-sencicle. Also, there are a lot of journal logs you can read to find out more about the story, but is a poor way to tell a story in a game.

The characters are terrible and very uninteresting, ranging from very bland to outright obnoxious and strange. (Only Sahz was likable and relatable to me). The gameplay is very boring as well, requiring little effort from the player, aside from role switching. And it`s just overall very poor... The only saving grace about the game is the music, which is excellent! But the rest, just dreadful, coming from Square of all companies.
