I'm somewhere in chapter 4, and I want to continue but I have the misfortune of having jury duty today. xD

Really like the game so far though. The Sazh/Vanille/Hope team was really fun because it was the first time you had to actually think about what you were doing and you couldn't just mash X. The Paradigm shifts are actually fun and the feel of the battle can change instantly and I love it.

And everything Sazh says is made of awesome. I agree with the chocobo thing as well. It always pops out at the oddest of times and no one even asks him why the hell it's even there. It's great. Hope is my favorite so far though. xD
