First off I enjoy the characters and morals, 2nd I just loved the summons especially redoing Bahamut and Alexander and a few other familiar (I only know bahamut and Alexender were from previous games) for you Final fantasy history buffs. 2nd off No levels... Yet kinda bit disappointed cause Final Fantasy games before (Except for 11, 13-2, and 14) Had levels but thats ok cause the crystarium covers that up a bit... For me thats a huge improvement from the failing system on 12... For some people its not a likable game but arguably better if you want more difficulty... Despite some the odd spikes in difficulty however... It can be managable... Heres the Retry button comes in... If you fail a battle due to the party leader being dead or everyone dead.... You can retry and it takes you to the nearest place to the enemy you encountered but not right next to it... The best thing is... Anything wasted on that battle you gain back... Thats what makes the game a better chance to save you from the risks so no permanent Game Over unless you feel like quitting... The thing is I loved the way if your party leader died game over.... Because it shows challenge! This game has a backbone but its like a never giving up game either... I dont like it when your party leader dies yet you can stay manage the battle.... WTF you cant just win all the freaking time... Basically my point is that it lets you learn from what you did wrong... I hate people bashing the game because its not that terrible of a game in fact... I never noticed a single glitch... EVER!
