This game must set some sort of record for the wordiest cutscenes of any DS game. I started getting carpal tunnel syndrome just from moving from one talk balloon to the next. It'd be one thing if it was an interesting story with decent dialogue (in which case I would have bought the 850-page novel version and saved myself the thumb wear), but it was just cheesy stock drivel with cookie-cutter characters that I couldn't bring myself to care about. Keep in mind I somehow made it all the way through Final Fantasy X, so my bar is pretty low for JRPGs.
After 30 minutes of mind-numbing prattle it finally let me play for 5 minutes. Imagine my disappointment when it was just a FF Tactics clone - not even Advance or A2, the old Playstation version - that didn't bring any real innovation to the table. I wanted those 35 minutes of my life back.
Every time I get a deuce bomb like this in the mail, I always thank <your favorite deity here> for GameFly for saving me time and money.
