I think I'm one of those rare cases that absolutely loved the gameplay of this game and I have no complaints about it whatsoever. The gambit system required some strategy, which in turn required thinking(and I love me some thinking). I've never cared for random encounters in games(as one who tends to get motion sickness, I remember having to stop playing FFX for a time because of the constant breaking of the screen and the sudden change in music). I will agree on the treasue chest(eggs?) and bazar complaints. A few hours into the game and I stopped opening those silly eggs.

"You found 1 Gil!"

Bah!
