Starts out great melts into a game where you realize all swords are the same no weapon differences, hack slash the same moves, the eikons don't make the game any cooler or offer any advantage, there's no strategy at all except dodging against bosses/heavy enemies. There's only small medium and large enemies and then there's bosses. There's no wonder or curiosity about the towns/different areas. Chocobos are not an integral part of the game. There's no cactuars, very few classic enemies/game elements, I can keep going but my fingers will fall off.
