Im not that far yet, I only put in around 20 hours. Im in Volt's tower. Im lvl 32. Here is a sample review.
The Good-
Vioce acting. We all know vioce acting can really mess a game up. Im not saying the VA is great, but it's good. There are only a few vioces I dislike. For some reason I don't like Zelos' vioce. Mainly because I thought he was a girl :P I also reconized many vioces. Magnius' vioce actor is the same as Vageta's DUB vioce from DBZ, or atleast it sounds like it.
The field. The overworld to wander in is good, but it can get annoying since I can't warp anywhere. Enemies look like blobs which almost dissapionted me, until I saw that they weren't the true monsters, just sprite type things.
Graphics. The graphics aren't that amazing, but they are still pretty good. Character animations are believable.
The great-
The story. The story so far is kind of deep, I don't think I got to the true story yet, but I didn't see it coming when Kratos betrayed me. A lot of things happen out of nowhere. Sometimes things get to be too good to be true. For example, getting Colette out of her toxicoses. Before the Prinyma fight when Colette returned to normal I expected something bad to happen.
The fact that the creators weren't afraid to kill people. It adds more emotional depth in the story if people actually die. When I first heard of someone dying it caught me off guard though.
Character designs. The only character design I dislike is Magnius'. He looks like a DBZ character, but I just don't like him.
The Fantastic-
Combat. At first I was dissapionted because it seemed like a button masher. When I was fighting Magnius however, I got a huge slap in the face. I finally leanred of all the things you can do. I can make the AI use spells whenever I want to, I can control different characters and much more. I also learned how helpful blocking can be.
Boss fights. The reason I like boss fights is the strategy and complexity to them. You really have to think about your strategy when figting a boss fight. They are long too. I usually like the fact that I make it out of the fight barely alive. It makes defeating a boss truly satisfying.
The bad-
Not much besides the fact I can't warp.
I'd like to ask a question. In Volt's tower, which enemie has the memory gem? Figting all the enemies takes a toll on my party's stats. I would like to save it so I don't have to clear the whole dungeon incase Volt beats me up. I know there is a save piont in the beginning of the dungeon, but I don't wanna keep backtracking.
I'd ike to thank all of those who reccomened it to me :)
