I started replaying this game today. I'm currently at Barheim Passage where you're dealing with the stupid Battery Mimics so you can keep the power on. Basch died like a bitch and it was just me, Balthier, and Fran until we all died horribly. Balthier and Ashe are hands down my favorite characters at this point. I was annoyed when Ashe is just a guest in your party. I WANT TO PLAY AS ASHE!

I'm enjoying the game for the most part, and I'm sure I'd enjoy it even more whenever I get this smurfing Gambit system down. I can definitely see why this game is frequently compared with Star Wars. I haven't decided if that's a good or bad thing yet. Vaan hasn't come across the least bit irritating to me, but it's still early.

Feel free to share tips and your experience the last time you replay the game, or your experiences if you're replaying it at this very moment.
