(+) Yeah! (+)

That fucking time limit. Everyone says it's a non issue, but I was one dungeon away from the final boss and ran out of time. Sure NG+ still unlocks but it doesn't change the fact that I have to start the entire game over from scratch (only your currently equipped gear and money carry over, on top of that). The only other game I've played with a time limit (Majora's Mask) is a lot more manageable and you can reset it at any time.

This game? Every fucking thing you do advances the timer. I'm sure even a fart would advance it by a week. Hard to really get invested in a game when you can't even SYNTHESIZE ITEMS or even walk on the world map without advancing the timer several days at a time. Who in their right mind thought it was a good idea to make you start all over simply because you weren't as fast as the game wants you to be? From what I've heard, the time limit is still there even for postgame stuff, which makes no damn sense at all.

Great game, seriously held back by the damn time limit. Rant over.
