A little disapointed to be honest. I know i have only played it for an hour and a half so far, but to be honest at the moment it doesnt feel like i have done anything apart from watched with a little bit of walking and really really easy fights in between.

For me, its not started off at all like any of the previous games, they seemed to throw you into the action straight off, you got to actually do some playing while the story got off to a rushing start, this game hasnt done that to me yet, and this is one of the most important parts of the game.

You have to say that a game really needs a good begining to get things up and running, FF10 starts pretty slow....then with the blitzball scene it gets really good and im starting to think im back in FF, them something strange happens and the game just slowed down again.

Its not all bad, im intrigued to find out whats happening next, and it does seem to be building to something big, its just that, well, i think the graphics may have gone to Squares head at the minute, so far i havent played, i have watched, i hope its starts to improve in that aspect soon.

Got to say though, the graphics and character animations are very nice indeed, but still, a little more play would be nice sometime soon.

If you've got the airship, the Chocobo trainer will have moved to just south of the hut in the calm lands. If you've already spoken to the person there, then she'll move to the entrance to Macalania forest.

This is starting to frustrate me a bit now, i know i need a chocobo to get to Rhemiem temple seeing as a friend told me that last week sometime. Although i can't seem to find the chocobo trainer in the calm lands where is she/he?

Rhemiem temple is in the Calm lands, you can only get there on a chocobo.
You should see a broken bridge in the south east area with a chocobo feather next to it, just look at it while on your chocobo and it will jump down.

To the bottom right of the Calm lands. You need to have a chocobo, then you go to the entrance of the calm lands (from macalania woods) and then right from there. You'll see a chocobo feather on the ground. Examine it, and you'll jump down to another platform. From there, its obvious where to go.

You need the cloudy mirror (from Remiem temple) to upgrade to the celestial mirror (at macalania forest) then you can open the chests which you can't normally. Like the one at the monster arena.

Yeah, Sin was so easy it was unbelievable. I was all geared up for a big fight and was actually quite disappointed.

Celestial Weapons? How do you get them then? I remember the celestial weapons in Phantasy Star Online and if my memory serves me correctly, they were pretty damn good.

In fact, I think it was Celestial Shields and stuff. Not actually weapons.

Ditto. Sin was so easy, I disbelieved it at first. Granted, it was only yesterday so all my people were strong at the time.
