This game is quite charming in many ways. The story is not bad, the characters are quite memorable and the game looks great on the switch. The part that really hurts the game for me is the combat and progression. The combat I found to be unintuitive although I can see what they tried to accomplish. I don’t feel they executed the combination of real time and turn based styles well. The progression system and abilities are very basic. Ultimately the combat and progression system, as the bulk of the game, really fell short for me, hence the rating.

I really wanted to like this game. It’s beautiful, plays wonderfully and the voice acting is phenomenal. The plot also seems decent as well, but I found it just didn’t grab me as I had hoped. The combat and character progression is where I feel the game could have really been a lot better. The combat is classic turn based with no gimmicks or anything fancy. The new moves and gear come in a slow trickle with very little in the way of improvement. The abilities just don’t feel impactful and the mana pools are huge so you can easily spam them in combat. All in all, it’s a classic JRPG that hangs onto some unfortunately archaic systems that are wrapped in beautiful world design, great voice acting and likeable characters.

Phenomenal game. It has lots of great RPG elements like unique skill trees for each monster, a very diverse cast of monsters, lots of different items to equip etc. The story is well written. The areas are fun to explore. The battles are awesome. This game does not disappoint. Amazing value for the price.
