Line #1 YMMV/GrandiaXtreme


1	%%* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic: Some battle themes.
2	* ClicheStorm: A war between races, a swordsman with a deceased father that possess a unique ability and joins a RagtagBunchOfMisfits to save the world, elemental ruins, bad guys after an ancient power for their own ends etc.
3	* ContestedSequel: While not a mainline game, this is the most polarizing entry in the series, thanks to the developers decision to make a game almost entirely focused on DungeonCrawling and combat, resulting in a [[ExcusePlot generic and vague plot]] with one-dimensional characters.
4	* GoddamnedBats: Bird-type enemies can be very annoying. Despite being weak, they are hard to avoid, come in high numbers, dodge most melee attacks and can summon back-up.
5	* ObviousJudas: [[spoiler:Kroitz and Specto turning out to be bad guys manipulating the Nortis Army for their own gains is hardly a surprise, thanks to their ObviouslyEvil [[CharacterPortrait Character Portraits]] and because Evann himself distrusts them.]]
6	* ScrappyMechanic:
7	** There is only one save point in the entire game. The Geogates in dungeons teleport back close to the NPC acting as the save point, essentially making the Geogates themselves the save points, but for some it's still more long-winded than necessary.
8	** The [[InventoryManagementPuzzle 30-limit inventory]] can be very annoying and its likely to become full of RandomDrops every time you visit a dungeon, specially due to skill vellums that consume many item slots [[note]]there is a separated folder for skills, but they will only be moved there after you pay Locca's skillman to create them[[/note]].
9	** The item shop limits you into buying ''one item'' per time (ex.: you cannot buy six Antidotes at once; you have to manually buy one Antidote ''six'' times). Ironically, selling items have the opposite problem: if you have six Panaceas, you'll have to sell them all at once (unless you move some to the item storage).
10	** Revisiting a dungeon requires all the puzzles to be solved again.
11	** Each time you deliver a Sound Bite to the band members, they force you into listening to their song.
12	* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodCharacter:
13	** Diene could have been a playable character; then there is the UnresolvedSexualTension between her and Evann.
14	** Evol, [[spoiler:the [[InTheHood mysterious hooded]] guardian of the Starry Corridor who created both Quanlee and a clone of himself (Specto), is unceremoniously killed-off by Kroitz just a few minutes after his introduction.]]
15	** Kroitz, himself, after acting as the driving force of the majority of the storyline, is [[spoiler:[[ChuckCunninghamSyndrome completely written out after his defeat before the first ending]], offering no conclusion to the questions he raises in his final scene:]]
16	--->[[spoiler:'''Kroitz:''' "When you've abandoned who you are, then you are truly defeated. Must I endure more suffering? Will I make it through this?"]]
17	* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodPlot: The GreatOffscreenWar between Nortis and Arcadia, and the relationship between the party members of different races. While Brandol and Jaid are presented as HeadbuttingHeroes during their introduction, this is soon put aside and forgotten in favor of the "SaveTheWorld from ObviouslyEvil villains" plot.
18	* ViewerGenderConfusion: ShrinkingViolet Titto could easily be mistaken for an elf girl (at least until you hear his voice). Even ignoring his looks, the other teams (Brandol and Carmyne, Ulk and Myam) are all "male and female pairs".
