"Anyone who's played Summoner"

I bought Summoner the other day and being a fan of RPG's I couldn't wait to get to get started but after a few goes It bored me enough not to play it again. I'm not an impatient gamer but after seeing some of the PS2's best is it really worth sitting down and getting into?

cheers in advance

I saw it had great potential, but I couldn't be bothered playing it for too long either. I amassed about 5 billion different quests that needed doing, had no idea which were "vital" and which were "optional" and eventually swapped it for Onimusha.
That was a while ago mind. The fighting system was a bit of a jip as well. It wasn't quite turn based, but you didn't exactly have full control either.

I prefer my attack systems to know where they're at. Either its turn based, choose your attack wisely stuff, OR its mash buttons until declared victorious. Summoner was just weird - it was like very very precise button mashing.

It worked in Vagrant Story, but not so much in this.

Each to their own and all that jazz, but a text heavy precision patience test is not my idea of fun.

I was a bit bored at first but when u get into it it is really good. Quite reallistic and the fightings good. Loads of quests to do so keep playing...go on...you know u want to.
