I do appreciate the game's ability to try and make compelling character, but Jude and Milla get much more screentime (and combat prowess) than the others except for maybe Alvin. Jude is Gary Stu and Milla is Mary Sue. The game advertised being able to play two different scenario's - Jude's or Milla's - but for the most part they are exactly alike save for a few areas. Felt like a wasted opportunity, and Milla was just an all-around boring character with terrible VA.

The PS3 version also had this annoying "pop in" effect where monsters or NPCs were still loading when you stepped into a new map. It was annoying. Xillia 2 didn't fix this.

Lastly, I already mentioned this in Xillia 2's write-up but Xillia contains many "field" or overworld areas which are nothing more than flat.fucking.squares.of.land. They separate the towns and dungeons but they are horrible. There's nothing there but a plethora of random palette swapped monsters and random shit laying on the ground, and also little holes in the walls leading to treasures. I couldn't stand FFXIII's linearity but this shit is worse, especially with my OCD tendency to try and find everything, and thus having to hug walls to find the holes.
