I agree. This game was great, though it does require a lot of patience for tedium. I would guess I spent at least 10 hours of "gameplay" sorting through everything you can pick up, comparing, equipping, selling etc. By the time I reached the phantom forest I was really near the end of my limit. If it hadn't ended soon after that I probably would have stopped playing altogether.

I definitely enjoyed it though. A little bit of everything, with a good story line. If you're a person who likes to do everything you can get 100 hours of gameplay out of this. Looking forward to the the sequel next year.
