frustrating combat, unresponsive controls, time consuming collecting.

at first i liked the game the story was immersing and the graphics are interesting. but after an hour or so it gets extremely boring and repetitive and the combat system is basically broken. i liked the hack-n-slash combat of the previous titles and this trys to make it more timed attack but you can hit a button 3 times and it wont do anything b/c the monster already started his windup. There is basicly no difference between monsters, the only difference is some will change colors and become vonarable to only one type of attack. what drove me nuts is they could change their stance after you hit them and still get bounced back for using the wrong attack. there are also light balls you need to progress and you have to search every corner of already beaten level to get enough to move on. Maybe the younger crowd would like this but for serious gamers its not worth your time.
