I will be leaving town after this entry, and will be returning with my Wii. As such, this will be my last FFXII entry because I will now have access to Skyward Sword. At any rate, I have taken a story break to grind. My characters have gotten to the mid 20's now, and nearly 40% of the License Board is complete. Since I have not done much that can be considered new, this will also be a short entry.

Humorously, I have decided to create a log for the game I gave a less than stellar review to recently. As previously stated in the review, the game is not terrible. It just fails to live up to its own potential. The entire character roster only yields two well generated members. Balthier has overtones of the Han Solo brand of bravado, which is aided by him being a pirate and pilot. Because he doesn't have any overly emotional story arcs, his character does not fall into the same pitfalls that two of the others do. That is good, because the emotional characters are not well written. The other good character is Basch. He is a knight, and lives wholly up to the stoic and reserved nature that his standard build would preclude. Interestingly, these are the only two characters who are dressed in a manner that is appropriate for a medieval setting. The sound suffers from the same issues that many other games did at the same time, in tat it sounds like it was recorded in a hall with added reverb and the mic was housed in a tin can. I immediately switched to my own playlist, and the game played more enjoyably after. I have completed roughly 30% of the storyline at this point. I did not realize how short the story is.
