So I'm at the 2 hour mark - just reached the next save point. Playing as Steiner was pretty unexpected - he's what, our third playable character so far? - and while I was confused at first, it appears that my mission was simply rounding up the other Knights of Pluto? They're all goofs and I quite enjoyed the comedy here; seems like Steiner has a little rivalry with Beatrix. I kind of hate this character design archetype with the small head and short legs. But he's funny, and it's even funnier when he plays along with the play, acting all horrified when Garnet "dies."

I don't understand why Queen Brahne has to look like this, but I supposed she's obviously the (a) villain if she doesn't care about Garnet's well-being other than being alive.

The two cutscenes here are excellent. I prefer the first where Zidane, Garnet, and Steiner plummet from the watchtowers; however, the second one - the airship's escape and the cannon-launched harpoons - is also magnificent.

Bizarrely, we're at two hours into the game and I'm pretty sure we have yet to have a real battle. We've had a bunch of gag/plot battles but not a single one that was just straight-up. Am I crazy? Is this game crazy? FFVI and FFVII just threw me right into it. The actual plot events and set pieces have been fun enough to carry us, and I guess I wouldn't totally object to the game just being setpieces and plot events... but yeah, feels weird!
