 Quite fun July 7, 2008
If all the low reviews are from people who were expecting a traditional final fantasy game then they are irrelevant, no? It's not good to review a game based on what you wanted it to be. I am prepared to give you an unbiased review. Do you like real time strategy, do you like final fantasy? If yes yes than this game is for you. if you played heroes of mana and are scared of the idea of another real time RPG from Square-Enix, don't worry they got it right this time. The game offers a continuation of the story form Final fantasy 12. Once you get used to the game mechanics and understand them you will enjoy this game. The game has a leveling system and skills. You learn enw skills as you go and you find new equipment etc. you can play the same level more than once in order to level some more which is helpful and usefull. The game can be quite difficult. Careful planning of how to use your units is required, so if you are a strategy buff you will like that part of the game. Look it's good ok. Play it.

After purchasing and beating Final Fantasy III, I was excited to finally buy this one. I figured the storyline would be along the same line as Final Fantasy III, but it was confusing and totally different. They constantly introduced new parts of the story, and even at the end of chapter 9, I have no idea why I'm still battling. The graphics are crap compared to Final Fantasy III. Square Enix should stick to designing the characters as 3-d chibis, not pixeley squares designed to look like characters. Also, the controls are whacked and the things ment to help you don't make sense at all. Overall, super research the next final fantasy game you plan on buying, because you never know what you're gonna get.

I am a devout Final Fantasy fan, and I loved XII, so this games was a HUGE disappointment for me. The plot and character motivations are flimsy, so I'm not really sure why I'm fighting in the first place. But even worse, the combat style is terribly boring! You spend lots of time and energy putting together your own personal army of summoned creatures, but if you think you'll be able to keep them alive, think again. The battles become these big lumps of chaos, and it's difficult to precisely target characters, so healing is a pain. Even your main characters are almost impossible to keep alive for long. And everyone moves soooo slooooowlyyyyyy. This game put me to sleep. Square Enix, you can do better!
 Another great additions to the Series March 30, 2008

I've felt lately that Final Fantasy games just aren't proving to be the same as they were since the Playstation 1 and prior to that. This game however mixes up the FF formula just enough to prove me wrong. The unique battle system seems simple enough, but adds enough of a strategic depth to it to make it interesting. The missions are mostly rehashes of each other, but the game proves to be fun. With the exception of a few difficult missions (some just plain frustrating) the majority of the game is pretty easy. The story is rather interesting and makes me wish that I ha the background knowledge of FFXII (however, it is NOT necessary to understand what's going on).
