    I think I'd put in around 150 hours by the end of it, I'd done some of the side dungeons and bosses and got some of my characters some really good gear but by the end it was starting to outstay its welcome, especially H'aanit's final chapter which was the last I finished, her speech both in audio and written form really, really grated. I could have just held B and skipped it but I'd got this far with all the other stories, I didn't want to miss anything.

    I'd started with Olberic as my main character and for the most part my party consisted of Olberic, Alfyn and Therion with either Primrose, H'aanit or Tressa being rotated. I would have liked to have used Cyrus more but it never really happened.

    I'd had Therion's secondary job as scholar, Alfyn's as warrior, Olberic as cleric, H'aanit as thief, Primrose as hunter and Tressa as apothecary. This seemed to generally make for a well balanced party.

    For the most part I really enjoyed this, it made me think of the DS version of Final Fantasy 3 and the DS Dragon Quest games. Some of the dialogue grated as mentioned earlier and it went on at times but I really enjoyed the gameplay.

    I'd definitely play a sequel.
