This discussion will have spoilers through Chapter 3.
Not really much to add as this chapter was basically a trek through the Mythril Mines.
I LOVED the remix theme song for the mines. My favorite part of that whole section. And the remix remix when you controlled Barret was a nice touch too.
The introduction of Elena was weird. It was very out of place, almost like it was there just so it could go into the trailer. Not organic at all. The fight against her and Rude was meh.
I was much more into the golem fight with Barret and Red XIII. It was very cool for the party to get split up to force you to use combinations you may not normally use. I hope there are more split up points in the future. Shooting crystals with Barret was fun.
