First of all I'm gonna start with the pros and cons. The pros: It's a long game, the quests give you alot of things to do(it can get annoying at times though), it has a surprisingly great and addictive battle system. The cons; the story is really long and slow at times, you kinda get bored of the same scenery over and over again...

Probably the one thing I loved about this game was it's battle system. It somehow felt really addictive, it surprised me. Battles are very fast paced, you get really addicted to using the burst style, that's the best part =).
What mess this game up was the fact that the storyline only moved when you did quest, and the quest at times are so pointless and really bothersome.
Overall, it's an somewhat interesting and unique game. It can last a very long time. Try it if you're looking for something "different".
