Roivas:
The spoiler isn't too bad. After all it does happen after the first two or three hours of play anyhow and is hinted at pretty strongly to begin with. I guess Cecil's change is somewhat spoiled by the manual but the intro video doesn't really give away that much to first time players, at least anymore than a normal opening video does for a Final Fantasy game.

I just got to the Tower in the Underworld. The game isn't too hard to me but that may be due to my obsessive wholesale slaughter of the game's monsters. So far the game has been able to distract me from nearly everything else, which I often find games today to have a severe deficiency in doing so.

Wow Zot's Tower kicked my trash pretty badly. But then I got to the Magus Sisters and their AI was so jokingly broken I almost felt sorry about ripping them apart. Here's hoping tornado lady is as easy as she always was...

Jackie Blue:
The manual and opening also completely spoil Rydia's transformation from young girl to grown woman, and I would say that explicitly telling people that Cecil will change class would detract from the moment.  I know when I first played it, I was genuinely surprised by the entire Mt. Ordeals segment of the game (coincidentally, that's where I am now from playing for the past couple hours.  Damn, Yang rocks in this version).

imagist42:
He's not quite as good as he first seems once you get him back. Kick used to be the absolute bomb, but now it takes so long to "cast" that it's virtually worthless. I mean, don't get me wrong, he's still a heavy hitter with his normal attacks, but paladin Cecil and Cid match him easily.

Also, yeah, Barbawhatshername is still really really easy. Time to go see the underworld!

Roivas:
Actually the reason they extended the time is because his kick can now transfer any status effects to a whole group on monsters. When facinf four or more his Mass Charm/Poison is almost always a great idea, unless I'm fighting elements. Anyone else working on making their Whyt all it can be? I seem to be stuck around 70 for most of his attributes, of course I'm still only halfway through the game [or would this be two thirds?

Well time to go fight Dr. What'shis Name and Belnab. The tornado chick handed my ass to me the first try, I think she got lucky with her crits, but the second she was easier to beat up than a squad of ninja.

This game rocks.
