Sqrl, what "glaring problems" did you find? o_o



A couple of things:

- Texture pop-in is still there, definitely improved but still a problem.

- The side planets looked awful compared to the rest of the game and the "missions" available on them were mind numbingly boring (I stuck to the main story after the first couple).

- There is no explanation of the combat system you're expected to just fiddle with stuff and figure out. A quick tutorial would have been nice. Just knowing what each class type was capable of would have been nice so I would have had some idea what class I really wanted to play.

- When you complete the game it dumps you back into your last save before the boss fight instead of after the boss fight which prevents you from finishing any side quests you might actually want to try. This is especially annoying for people who like to get 100% completion.

- The Benezia fight issues.

Thats off the top of my head at least, and there are a lot of minor gripes as well. As I said I enjoyed the main game, but any time a game has a ridiculous amount of hype heaped upon it your expectations for the game are going to be higher and I really don't think it lived up to that hype very well at all. As a game in its own right its definitely a solid title, it simply doesn't live up to the hype for me.
