Oh, good grief! Hm, well, I got my pre-ordered game a day earlier than official release. Might be tactless to rant about it already - those who'd prefer not reading this can press Back now with no regret, as there's nothing important to read here.
So, yeah - RANT-MODE ENGAGED.
It all starts promising, plenty of WTF-moments that you'd expect from a time traveling stint, but... I'm not three hours into the game, and I've already spotted two mistakes no editor worth his salt would let through:
1. Very early in New Bodhum, Maqui walks up to a plant, and remarks '... Must be a pocket of unstable time.' :confused: ... Come again, white boy? Considering the fuss they make later over Noel, this is just amateurish... :mad2:
2. Considering what Noel reveals about his background (or maybe I simply hit the correct Live Trigger - shan't spoil THAT), WHY would he know how to deal with interrogators, as he implies in Bresha Ruins?? OK, so we know bugger all about his upbringing, but I find it a bit improbable that there'd be a police force where he's from.
:bou::bou::bou::bou: to that... Hope the rest is more solidly written. The rest is all good so far, at least, though the graphics (SPLENDOUR TO DA MAX!) brings my PS3 to its knees and then some occasionally.
