I haven't read any reviews, but I did get a chance to try out remote play myself. It was surprisingly very, very good. I even fought several enemies while using it (I had to stop because I didn't have my power cord nearby and was getting low on power). Some of the controls involve the back touchpad, so it can take a little getting used to if you're not used to using it. The game looks great and sounds great. The speed is quite acceptable. Overall, it was just a very surprising experience. Is it as good as the PS4 or a PC? Of course not, but it is definitely more than playable. Large FATEs, boss fights, and anything else involving a lot of people or special effects MIGHT be a problem, but the bulk of the content should be just fine.
I do think the Vita will be PERFECT for the crafting and gathering classes.
Time will tell better, of course, but my initial impression is that the game on Vita via Remote Play is probably better than the game on the PS3.
I'd love to hear what others think of it so far!
