Final Fantasy Tactics: War of the Lions on PSP has been a great way to break in my new PSP Slim so far, and create in me a lot of affection for the system as well as the game.

But I have to say I’m annoyed by one feature: all those side-missions you used to be able to get at the taverns? They’re still there, but you HAVE to find an online player to play them with.

There are tons of items and character-advancing experiences to go through via these tavern missions, and I think requiring them to be completed via cooperative play is a big mistake; I have yet to find a single opponent online in order to complete even one of them

This should be optional for coop or solo play.
