Yeah, that did nothing for me. QTEs in that first battle felt totally random, like I'm not even sure there was any reason for them to be there. Mashing on triangle made something happen and it was like 'uhh.' Otherwise, it's FF13. I guess if you liked the original that's good news, but it was still the same old boring game I didn't have much interest in. Maybe that's because it's a demo and you're not given much context to what's happening, but eh. Pass!
