great game, but i had some issues that i need to state,
Why is this? it's because the game was TOO DARN EASY. i died ONCE in the whole game, and that was against dulahan, the strongest bonus boss
now people who never played the first golden sun games will disagree, and granted the game was hard from that viewpoint.
but to someone like me, who level grinded for days beat the original games, this game presented no challenge whatsoever., there was a total of one boss in this game (excluding the bonus bosses) that had multiple attacks, and it was the final boss. where as the original games each boss had at least 2 attacks (provided it was one creature and not a group like briggs and his pirate gang)
i breezed through the game and was very disappointed with the difficulty.
however on a positive note, i loved the storyline, the characters, the new animations, the... pretty much everything else, though the masked man's identity was SO predictable, but i played the first 2 games so i guess i would know
one more negative note, i need a better substitute for piers, in the originals my piers could dish out the hurt and heal, that was why i loved my water adepts so much, now i have rief and amiti, where rief is a healer no matter what and amiti you have to pick whether he is offense or defense. very poor substitute in my opinion
so now that i'm done reviewing the game itself, THERE HAD BETTER BE A SEQUEL!
they left a lot of loose ends at the end of this game and i was surprised when the game ended with so much left to do, not to mention the ending scene. but you'll get no spoilers from me. simply put, considering the amount of things left undone in this game, we could make 2 games out of the rest of this stuff
well i'm done for now
see ya!
