The combat in this game is, in my opinion, the best of any recent turn based rpgs. It allows plenty of experimentation and will keep you on your toes in terms of difficulty. Some people seem to have a problem with the story being light and uninvolving but really I think this is a strength. If, like me, you enjoy rpgs but don't really give a fig for reading endless pages of backstory for Elrong the elf or whoever, and may have a tendency to press skip, then this cuts more to the chase. It doesn't take itself seriously and pokes fun at the tropes of the genre when it can, and this is something I appreciated. It looks lovely, plays lovely and doesn't bog you down with endless lore and story. That's all I want.
