Yes. The plot sometimes seems to be moving too fast sometimes, at least in the early stages of the game. Combat is fun though. And hey, as long as I don't have an idiot like Meredy from ToE in my party, I'm a happy camper.

In a HOLY SHIT moment I was just watching The Tick, Die Fledermaus went to help them pick out furniture, sure enough, I looked it up, Cam Clarke was also... Die Fledermaus

Man, that art book goodie is a nice bonus. 80 pages, full size. I'm happy.

I just got the game today at Fry's for $39.99. I played it for like 5 hours and it's awesome. The battle system takes awhile to get used to but once you get the hang of it, the game is a lot of fun.

My only real voice complaint: It sounds like the dialogue was all recorded at different times and then lines were mix-and-matched back together. The volume between some lines varies wildly and it's in a standing-at-different-lengths-from-the-microphone kind of way instead of an intended emphasis. Otherwise it's been pretty good.

I rather wish the defensive part of combat allowed for some sort of parrying, but I suppose I'll just make due.

If it's that ditzy redhead alien I could definately see it. Hear it. Whatever. I'll take a better listen next time that show's on and I happen to have cable on at the same time by coincedence.

Yeah, i thought that was annoying too. Namco aren't the only guys that do this, and it's amazing that companies do this when they spend millions developing games. I'm sure most people in this thread would have at donated their services to namco to fix the volume issues.

The battle system is so fun it overshadows all other shortcomings. I just wonder if japanese people don't mind when RPGs stick with the same general plot lines.

It's called "playing it safe". Look how many movies in hollywood, espically action movies, are just copies of each other save for a few details. Since the US loves action movies, we don't care, the Japanese loves rpg's, so they don't care.

Hey, can anyone here tell me where I can download the vocal track that was cut in our release of the game, or even give me a title so I can do a search?
