Can't believe I'm in the minority here but I just love this game, the gameplay is damn fun and while the Junction system is definitely overwhelming at first and they should have introduced it differently instead of bombarding you with information 15 mins into the game, it's a fun system and it's so fun when you figure out how it works and breaks the game.The story well...I get the criticisms but I think it's solid.The main problem is that besides Rinoa, Squall and maybe Seifer the characters don't get fleshed out, Quistis and Zell are pretty interesting and Irvine gets one cool moment but the game just drops their development halfway through and Selphine is just...there.
