The mini-games get a little tiring after you've done each one a bunch of times, since you're fighting the same few enemies in most areas you visit. The inventory system is terrible, even as you get more people in your team. But I dig the music, comedy, visuals, story and the weirdness a lot and it easily makes up for the small flaws. Plus, there's little touches like allowing you to lucky level up and actually put some points into your stats, which I always like in RPGs.
