The Return Of The "Not Worth Its Own Thread" Thread

Playing Star Ocean: Second Story R. First ever Star Ocean game I've played, despite owning the original SO2 on PSX, which I got from Babbage's way back in the Beforetime for a 20 spot.

I'm not sure what to think of it. The dialogue is still very 90s RPG, with the good and bad that entails. The combat is neat albeit, at this point, fairly easy. Battles don't last long. Good music thus far. Not impressed with private actions, where there's getting-to-know-you dialogue to increase rapport with party members; I am wholly uninterested in this kind of thing. I understand these choices affect the story and the endings but I'm more than happy to ignore them.

I'll give the game another hour or so and see if it puts on some muscle. Really just trying to kill time until Pragmata is out.
