Time has not been kind to this game, feels awfully dated.
I'm not a graphic whore but there's a point where the overall bad look of the game gets between me and enjoying the game.
Also it suffers from a lot of JRPG "old ways": Bad camera work, way to much and way too repetitive random encounters, lack of personalization on characters, slowness... I can force me to endure some of those thing in old games, but the game has to hook me with something else, i don't feel that "something else" here so i won't keep playing it.
I'm sure story will get good, but i will pass and wait, maybe the future will bring a remake or something for this title.
