Far beyond any system nitpicks, minor gripes, or personal dislikes based on my love of the FFT Ivalice, that I could dish out, the gameplay was simply boring and the plot was bad. Note that when I say plot is bad, I don't mean the story as a whole has some flaws, I mean the bare bones "this is who the characters are and this is what they are doing" is mortally flawed at its core for the game. If you add on the fact that the gameplay is essentially little more than an endless level/money grind in open areas with no interesting structure or plot, then you get a lousy game. It doesn't even rate as a lousy game by Final Fantasy standards (like Final Fantasy 2 or 3), it is just a lousy game.I honestly can't think of a single redeeming feature of interesting innovation in the game... Well, the Gambit system is an interesting way of controlling AI, but the result of that one is less satisfying then things like Persona 3's ally AI, so I don't like it very much.The whole thing makes me wish for the days of the superb SNES Final Fantasy games and the fun of FF7 and the creativity of FF8, as well as the awesomeness of Final Fantasy Tactics.</blockquote>
