I was rather excited about this game. The directors went to pains in multiple interviews to say that fan issues from FFXIII had been heard and everything was fixed. There has been the addition of towns, shops, more side-quests and less linear-hallways to run down. That sounds good.
Where, for me, it started to go south was when gameplay was really shown. It looks to be a shorter game, with an emphasis on New Game + stuff. While that may be fine, the core mechanic of capturing monsters caught me off guard. I'm not sure if I want a Poke-Fantasy game, but that may surprise me. The other downer has been the music. Normally, I love the music in any Final Fantasy game, but some of these tracks...well....
The chocobo theme (a boss encounter)
At any rate, check out the trailer below. I'm going to get the demo next week and see if this game floats my boat.
