A Game like this... I would prefer the multiplayer function more.
Yet I was Incredibly Disapointed in the lack of any Good AI .. as you all the time have to call your friend near and nearly get them killed anyways. When you battle it can easly feel like you're doing all the work alone. the AI stinks.
The story's good yet incredibly Short. Yet.. I'm a big sucker for Sobby games with a story of death and loss. but a Game with such good story shouldn't end that quickly.
I hate the Saving points.. they're so far apart that I ( Who has little time to waste my time to run through HALF the dungeon just to save.
But aside from the whining and complaining I'd say that I completely adore the Cute characters, the Great Voiceacting. Wide variety of items and weapons to fix. The cloths that actually change your characters look. the 3D is great for a NDS.
Yet I'd say that you all should atleast play it through once (it's really fun the first play through) Yet I'd love to try out the Multiplayer mode (It's kinda hard when I don't have any friends with Either a DS or the game itself.) It's worth playing If you're a FF-Nerd.
