Where are these technical issues in the Last Remnant?

To me, the Last Remnant looks awesome.

Even gamespot, who doesn't like jrpgs at all not from a long series, said it was awesome.  However, they also said it had so many technical issues and made it sound like FF12-2 but held back by it being essentially unplayable.

And I'm looking at gameplay videos, not official ones for that matter, and I'm not exactly seeing these.  Can someone clarify?  Is it like the game's controls lag 3 seconds behind or what?  Because it's definately not coming through in gameplay videos.

What might make the game unplayable for some is the text size in menus and battle. I have an SD Tv.

I keep playing though.

Smug you're not playing this???  Anyway, on a HDTV, and after loading to the HDD, the game plays great.  No lag in controls, lol, and no FR drop.  Only the texture load delay.  The load screens are literally only 3-4 seconds in length.  Love this new option that came w/the NXE :-).
Oh and btw, the game looks stunning, both in terms of art and the effects the URE has brought to the textures, lighting, colors etc..  Best looking rpg I've ever played(not that that is so many,lol).
