So I ran across Square's Star Ocean The Last Hope while surfing the web. I love a good JRPG... Is this title worth $14 shipped, brand new? I watched a few videos about it and it actually seems pretty solid. Anyone play through this one? Is it worth the time? Thanks!

Depends how driven you all to complete everything... some of the Achievements are tedious to the extreme (research all enemies 100% will sometimes mean fighting 100 of them, and in some cases you only ever meet 1 per battle) and the disk swapping near the end between disks 2 and 3 was shocking.

The battle system's kinda neat, but pretty much everything else around it is kinda bad.
