hmmm it's linear, but the world is quite open-ended, with some sidequests and variety

How 'big' is the world? By that, I don't mean the actual size of the 'world-map'. See, from my experience in RPG's, when an RPG tries to have the players travel the entire world, there's not a whole amount of detail put into the setting, as opposed to an alternative, seen in games such as Suikoden and certain other titles; focusing on a specific region of the world. While you're not traveling the entire planet, you can put a lot more detail and work into just one region, as opposed to trying to have the party travel an entire world, and not being able to relatively have as much detail on the whole.

Do you get what I'm saying here?

Does the "variety" include puzzles to solve?

a bit (if you mean dreamscape type of puzzles) but it's more true RPG than a puzzle-rpg

hoo boy...that means we'll have to study them carefully so we can match them up +::biggrin

It was fun trying out different mixes in LF3. So this should be fun, too +::biggrin
