You finally managed to get me to buy one of your games, and I'm hooked.

Skies has eaten my life. Arr!

Tell me where good things are. If you want.

Random battles are fine. They appear ever so slightly to much in places, but most of the time its fine, as you level up.

The bigger battles are worth it though.

Wonderful game.

I presume that means you enjoy the 30 seconds at the end of the battle where your stats get improved? I don't know how masochistic you'd have to be to enjoy the endless back-and-forth attacking that precedes it. None of the random enemies present any kind of challenge (except for testing your patience).

The worst is when you spend twenty minutes attacking and missing the enemy, and then they go and run off anyway! WHAT IS THE POINT!

I'm just at the point of entering the Land of Ice, and I'm going to persist with it because I never give up on a story, but this game is never going to make it into my list of classics.

It doesn't take the fun out for me. I enjoy leveling up, it gives a purpose to the game. Without them you wouldn't survive and it would be dull.

I've been struggling along with Skies of Arcadia for months now, and I refuse to give in but it really is a chore to play. The random battles are SOOOOO dull, and they happen so often that it just takes all the fun out of the experience.

If it wasn't for those random battles, I'd still own the game.

But still, I see your point, but I'd rather them do something different than the ANNOYING random battles.

God, i hate those battles

If it weren't for those random battles, you wouldn't level-up enough to beat the bosses.

I have played SEGA games before, of course, but I've enver spent money on one, as apart from Monkey Ball (GAD claim) I never really liked them.

Skies rocks.

I now have beast ship and its cool, except for Enrique mincing about.
