Yep, I said it. Now you can flame me, either for dissing ff7 or for putting it on a pedestal. But, on to TOS.
There's plenty to do, it's got a great storyline, and the characters are likeable (though maybe a little cliched.) The battle system is far more interesting than most RPGs I've played. Each character "handles" differently, and furthermore has plenty of skill choices. There are difficulty settings that actually make the game challenging. There are plenty of sidequests, as well as a running "affection" quest that changes the way game scenes play out.
The thing that surprised me most of all was that there was voiceover acting - AND IT WAS GOOD! I was disappointed that they didn't include voice for all of the "skits" - little optional conversations between characters that pop up - but, there ARE hundreds of them. It would have cost a pretty penny.
Oh, and there are no random battles. :D
