Well.... Having completed it myself, and having been read the RPG cliche list, my opinion of this game has dropped down a notch. This game has every possble cliche an RPG couold have.
SPOILER ALERT.
SPOILER ALERT
Kratos being Lloyd's dad, two worlds, the fact that the good guy and his dad are THE FIRST TWO characters weilding swords in the game, the fact that you don't get to return to Iselia until VERY late in the game... And many more. Not saying the game isn't a masterpiece- It is. The battle system is one I play for hours all the time, and it was good enough to make me play the game again with all the extras they throw in. But the storyline could use some real work.
