The gameplay is in desperate need of balancing, the gameplay systems are needlessly complex, and the cast is so expansive you can become lost in it and not be sure who to latch onto. However, it is just too intensely fun to dislike. Most of the time you won't be understanding half of what you do, but it never detracts from the experience. Plus the story and how it utilizes the cast is glorious. A must play if you are attached to the world and characters of SF.
