Own this game. Imported it at great cost. Never played and now I never will.

Thanks, Joe. Now I blame you and this tardy review for the bucket of Money I spent bringing this over. Ironically, I think I picked this up alongside Chrono Cross and Thousand Arms. So I'll consider it a cursed purchase, every inch.
For us. For them. For you.

I actually played this to the end. Quite enjoyed it despite all the hate it gets. But I'm not sure I'd feel the same say now. That was at a time when I had a dearth of RPGs to play.
Don't panic!

Ouch. It's kind of ironic that you paid good money for a budget title. And not a good budget title like some of the ones available on Steam or XBL these days, but a crappy one from the PlayStation era.

I will say, though, that I've been curious about Battle Hunter.

I actually did enjoy this game somewhat the first time I played it. I think I had rated it 6/10 before. Unfortunately, this game hasn't aged well at all. It's a functional game, but its biggest drawback is how boring and generic it is in comparison to the rest of the genre.

Before, I had made the 'budget title' excuse to justify keeping it and playing it. Now, though, when I think budget title I think of games like Bastion or From Dust, which pretty much showed that you don't have to sacrifice quality for affordability.
