Strictly mediocre
People often praise this game and it’s sequels for the meticulously crafted world they are set in, as well as an engrossing, character-driven story. I found the story to be very dynamic, but ultimately dull. Worse still is that the dialogue between characters is mostly vacuous. It is on the level of what I imagine is found in cheap, weekly manga. As far as the world-building, the creators have certainly fleshed out the details and politics, but it all fell flat because of the uninspired art and graphics. Again, things are very detailed, with carefully placed objects in building interiors for example. But it all looks generic. All of the art in the game is bland. Character portraits are low-grade stereotypical anime. City aesthetics are usually not memorable. Finally, combat is sub-standard. It is not tactically challenging, and the higher difficulty settings only bloat enemy hp and make things a slog. Also the orbment system is not deep in the least bit. The stat adjustments are very minor and I was halfway through the game before I bothered learning about unlocking more powerful magic spells. Maybe I’m unfairly comparing this game to the classic JRPGs of the 90s, but chances are that you can play a better game in the same vein unless you’ve really exhausted your options.
