Big dissapointment, poor gameplay and some downright inappropriate characters!

I was looking forward to getting Enchanted Arms as it looked like the kind of game I would like to play.

I decided to rent it first and am glad that I did!!

The battle system is not exactly to my liking with turn based, distance prohibited attacks and the same for the healing system. I found the storyline not too bad but some of the characters were a little too stereotyped. For example one of the first characters you meet is obviously gay but he is portrayed as a highly strung, rude, camp man and i found it quite offensive. I think this is the wrong message to be sending to any kids that might decide to pick up this game. I tried hard to like this game, donating about 20 hours of my precious time to it, but it still could not change my mind.

On a positive note... yes there is one.... they have a cool system where if you do a boss and you die then you do not need to go back to your last save, you can simply restart the battle. I used this feature once or twice although you cannot change your party so I did have to go back a few times too :(
