I couldn't finish this game. There were several ruins I came across early in the game that I didn't have the gear to access. When it happened the first time, I thought well whatever I'll just come back later I guess. When it happened the second time I was annoyed. The writing is really forgettable, the combat is decently fun, the visuals are gorgeous, the monster designs are cool, but the package as a whole just didn't inspire me to continue playing the game as I looked at how large the map was.
