I can sum up my feelings of FFTA in a very simple way.

I hate Marche.

His character isn't so bad, and is even appropriate. What he decides he's trying to do pretty much killed it for me because I would never even consider doing what he decides he's going to do. It's sorta' hard when your motivations are the polar opposite of your characters.

The game is great, though. One day, I do know I will suck it up and finish it because the game itself deserves that, and the storyline is very creepy when you actually read between the lines a bit.
