Perfect for on the go. – FINAL FANTASY DIMENSIONS II Review

Despite my fears, and other reviews I have read, concerning the fact that this use to be a free to play game. I decided to make the purchase, and well, I am not disappointed one bit, but perhaps this is because I knew what to expect coming into the game. However, I'd like to think that without any prior knowledge of the games history I would've still appreciated this effort from square enix. As far as gameplay goes, battles are turn based and streamlined pretty quickly, nothing truly mind blowing or game changing here just the basics, you'll have many skills, and summons to collect on this adventure (think chaos rings III without the triangle). You can also buy and sell items; and talk to villagers. The UI and presentation of the game is one thing that the game does very well, making use of all space allows you to easily navigate through each menu (much like how Nintendo has done with theUI in their mobile games) The story may not attract everyone since it definitely follows formulas that have been done before, but it is different, and if you've played some of the earlier FF games or Chrono Trigger, I'd like to think you wouldn't have a problem with this story wise? The best thing about this game for me, personally, is it's VERY on the go friendly. Offline play, meaning you can play it in the subway! Mid-battle saves so you can stop playing whenever w/o worrying about progress being loss, and there's a cloud save. The game may not be as explorational or in depth as previous FF games, but this is definitely the most fledged out in terms of an on the go experience. If you're a fan of the series I say give it a shot. It's something unique and new in terms of an FF on the go experience. *And to those complaining that it's not what they expected or it's not like the first dimensions, I recommend doing research before spending your money, rather than writing a bad review due to expectations not being met.
