Uh, it became an RTS pretty early on. Even the early parts were training for when you get started on the first stage battle, which is still less than halfway through the game. And if you don't think the beatin' dudes up and teaming up with units is part of getting you trained for battle, then you could be doing the stage battles wayyyyy more effectively.


On a related note, I think the game was supposed to be longer, with the Tainted Coil having their own big section of the story instead of just showing up at the beginning and end briefly. But, budget, or something.
