wha????!!!! the story is good!!! very good!!! chromo, i trust you for your love of heroes, but i cannot stand for this. the only thing i find disappointing is that when you dismount your chocobo you do not get him back. what a crock of poo. i love chocobo. i also wish you could catch and break black chocobos on the ozmos plains.
Allow me to elaborate, the story is good, but as previously mentioned the game suddenly ends and leaves you with almost no answers. Imagine an episode of Heroes that sets up answers to every single question you've ever thought of asking and then finding out that next episode will never air. I suppose there are things that can be inferenced and certainly there is some tiny little tidbits that the clan primer will give you but I was left feeling kind of ripped off. They introduced a fascinating mythology and completely abandoned it - the occuria are almost entirely inconsequential but the mystery behind them is interesting; a downright tease.
But don't get me wrong, I enjoyed the game a lot otherwise, I had better after spending more than 130 hours playing it. Only the Elder Scrolls IV has ever been given so much attention.
