Just started it myself this morning for about an hour!

Yes it does manage to achieve that feeling of being traditional Final Fantasy where you can cast a spell and watch it hit, but also that action RPG feel where you can be dodging and hacking your way through enemies. Has a real Crisis Core feel to it (which I love).

Yeah I think wee are pretty much at the same point, it's just the introduction to the game that has it established like this. I was the same as you though and felt inclined to play as Ace.


I totally understand everyone complaints about the motion blur though. I didn't think it would be much of a big deal but it goes full on motion blur mode with a simple twitch of the camera, and that's the problem. You also can't change the camera control speed which is annoying so Im still getting used to making smaller adjustments to my camera movements or you looks all the way left/right/up/down in a blurry mess.

This is definitely something they need to patch in the future.


I got some screenies of my adventures so far:
