I fail to see where your problem with this game is then. FFXII has THE most cohesive and detailed world of any game in the series and possibly any game that I've ever played.

As has already been said, every boss doesn't need some huge exposition on why it does what it does. Sometimes it's plenty for it to just be there getting in the way of your progress. It's an RPG convention that's been around a long time, and if it really bothers you so much in this game, then I fail to see how you can be much of an RPG fan at all. You must hate just about every RPG ever made because every single one I've ever played does exactly the same thing.
