mixed feelings....(spoliers)

I dont know what so many people see in the game. the story was ok i mean it wasnt anything special and some of the plot twists were dumb,claire finds out her brother is the last boss...yeah thats as shocking as it sounds also considering that the game didnt do a good job building up its alot of it characters like most RPGs (the last boss is practically a mystery getting mentions here and there). adray seem completely thrown in because he wasnt in any of the cinemas leading up to the games end he was just a party member who was just there.

The game is horrible at informing you. i dont like games that hold you by the hand but the way star ocean handles it is seems lackluster. an example would be character A tells you to go to point B to retreive item C and the also tell you the name of the location of point B... but they dont tell you how to get to point B. even worse is that there were 2 dungeons i had to go through ON THE WAY to point B (which was a dungeon counting 3 in all) . the final thing i hated was that you can die from losing all your magic, this is annyoing because magic isnt as easy to recover as health speaking of which special attacks take a good chunk of health so you have to heal your AI characters alot.

The AI also seems broken too, there are times when they would charge into certain death then other times when they would stand and do nothing for absolutely no reason.

However even with all the negatives been said they game isnt unplayable. it has many fun parts and the music is pretty good, and its beatable, its got lots of extras for collection nuts. just be warned that this RPG is basically a dungeon-maze crawler
