It's games like this that tempt me to give the current console generation a shot. Your review sounds on par with others I've heard ... that this is an imperfect experience, but draws on the strengths of the Square RPGs we loved most.

That's not an easy trick to pull ... Square pretty much lost us in the last gen ... Lightning has it where it counts, but her games are a waste of space. It's fascinating how disconnected they can be.

I hear also that Square will be expanding the last rush chapters of the game, too. A little nervous making, perhaps? It's weird to have something changed that is technically complete, especially such a personal experience like this.

Look, the only time I'm not wrong is when I'm right, so...

Definitely. There were times when I thought the game could do more with the story, even though I was really enjoying it.

I'm not sure what sort of precedent this would set for patching a narrative. It also means the game that is released on disc, and the game that is released now, might not be the definitive version of the story. It's a little different to DLC Chapters, which are more like extra stories, and usually self-contained.

I can avoid death by not having a life.

There an argument also for the archivists of the world, and that's also an interesting point. Remembering the past by capturing it - a worthy endeavour to be sure. Just not one of mine.

This is why I prefer digital downloads in the case of games like this one. The ability to at least address some of the issues that lackluster PC ports can leave us with. Also, cheap DLC in a bundle after the product cools off. Yay! Modern consoles aren't escaping from these issues, are they?
