Played this for about an hour. Initial impressions:
- Graphics are pretty nice. Lots of cutscenes.
- Story-wise, lots of terminology is thrown at you off the bat which is confusing, so I'm still not sure what's going on. It's been forever since I played FFXIII, so I don't even remember what the hell a L'Cie is or whatever.
- Holy shit is it uncomfortable playing a PSP game requiring the use of the nub. Guess I've been spoiled by the Vita but I was cramping up pretty good. Plus, the camera is hard to control using the d-pad. This would be way better with dual analog sticks.
- Battles are pretty good for the most part.
- But the archaic save point system blows. I died in about 5 seconds at the fight right after that Odin battle and now I have to go back and do this shit all over again? Ugh
BTW anyone else have those battle results screens flash for a second and disappear by themselves?
