After such a long wait for the game's release, I was quite certain that the game wasn't going to live up to my expectations since I had so long to hype it up in my mind, but to my surprise, it was just as good as I had hoped it would be. There were plenty of cut scenes and a pretty good story line. The ending was a bit confusing and didn't make a whole lot of sense to me, but was at least thought provoking. I'm glad that the folks at Square Enix took the time to really perfect this game. It runs smoothly. There's really no latency and the graphics are great.
The game play is fun. Half way through the game, I determined that I needed a strategy guide in order to properly upgrade my in game weapons. It was also needed in order to defeat some of the optional bosses. Unfortunately, by the time, I purchased a strategy guide, I had already completed most of the first half of the game, which you can't go back to. The later content can be revisited as much as you want, however, and is really probably where you would stay anyways other than to search for secrets that you missed.
One thing that I found odd was that part of your abilities don't unlock until after you complete the main story line. Anything you do after that is really just surrounding further character development, increasing abilities and weapon upgrades, which in turn helps you defeat even more monsters, which you would not have been able to beat during the main story line.
That being said, I loved the game, and although I have already beat the main storyline, I intend to keep playing a few times a week until I can fully upgrade the character weapon upgrades. This is definitely a must have for final fantasy lovers.
What's great about it: Plenty of content, battle system was pretty dynamic and kept battles from being overly mundane
What's not so great: Needed a strategy guide to take advantage of content, could not revisit early content
I would recommend this to a friend!
