I Am Ready At Last

[Forsaken Lover]

I just got Jungle Boy's abilities explained to me by an Imp while cooky music played.

Also I wonder if those poor souls in the train cars we detached will reach the afterlife.

This game is supposed to be more grim than FFX?

But seriously, it's been...interesting so far. I'm not feeling Terra at all and the game did nothing for me in the first hour. Apart from the intro with Biggs, Wedge and Terra marching and that was only memorable because Terra's Theme is definitely worth all the praise I've heard for it. Amazing song.

But things are looking up. Cyan is pretty awesome. The poisoning of his castle was well-done and made Kefka look like the evil douche he is. Then him seeing his loved ones leaving on the Ghost Train made that whole ridiculous segment worth it.

Celes looks cool too.

Shadow just randomly leaving my party was unexpected. He said he'd leave any time but I still figured it had to be story-related.

This game sure does love its little gimmicks. Moogle battles, raft rides, keep Banon alive, multiple scenarios... And maybe more to come.
