I like the dub, AND I understand the cost/space constraints, but damned if it doesn't break my heart not to have the Japanese audio track option. First world problems.
I think I'm actually managing to go through the first dungeon even slower than I did on the PS2. The quick load times have made me even more anal than ever about exploring town constantly to check and see if there's any new text or quests available. I expect to finish this some time around February of 2015.
