The RWP

So, what did you guys think of this game. Personally, I've it for about a year now and I still haven't beat it. Why? Well, definitly not because it's too hard, but more that it's so frickin boring. I mean, it feels like someone tried to stick star wars and world of warcraft together. I mean, I don't even want to call it a final fantasy game. No turned based battle, horrible summon system, boring/predictable story. My hope is that they do better with the next one.

FFXII is one of those games that I got last Christmas and sadly have not played.

I even have the awesome Collector's Edition, both of the game and the guide.

The main reason I haven't played it is because ever since 2005, I've gotten a GH game for Christmas and played it to the point where it was all I played anymore.

It's actually in a box in my closet right now...I should pull it out sometime...busy with Zelda 2, however.

I haven't beaten it yet, and haven't touched it in a while just because at this point the game gets so difficult I just need to grind continously. I don't think bad of it, though. It's got a huge world and a lot to explore. The plot's alright and I enjoy it over some the past ones because it's not so angsty for once, as well as the characters. But the battle system doesn't seem to call for much strategy beyond using your Quickenings continously right at the start of the battle.

Currently 60 hours in and only have two summons.

I actually really enjoyed FF12, even if it had a few flaws. I thought the battle system was fun to use once I got used to it, and I liked a lot of the characters. My favorite part, though, had to be the clan hunts! Those were so fun.

(Even if friggin' Yiazmat took me five hours to kill...) Also, no stupid/cliche love story as the central plot. Score!

I think the worst part was the fact that the Espers were pretty much useless. The only time I ever used one was the open that gate thing in the Feywood, and that was required.
