You know what I hate, forced animations that lock you in place when interacting with something. If I can't interact with something, then just don't let me, or have a notification pop up. Having me wait 5 seconds through an unskippable animation EACH time isn't at all ideal.

Getting back the positive side of things, I like how Mt. Corel came together. Though I'm assuming that the train sequence later on doesn't occur, since both the reactor, and the bridge leading to Barret's town are destroyed. Especially enjoyed the rollercoaster mini-game, and how it not been for the fact it wasn't that long ago that I did a bunch of mini-games, I'd have enjoyed it even more.
