So for clarity I own this game on Steam and this is my review on there. [["Snake, I wanna ask you. Do you think love can bloom, even on a battlefield?" 6 hours in and I'm just barely at the end of chapter 2. This will most likely be one of my favorite JRPGs if not my #1 favorite in recent years. This game does not shy away for the darker topics of war. Detail in the gore of death along with the anxieties and trauma of what war does to people. There are LGBT themes in this game but its not the main draw of this package. If you love JRPGs of the yesteryear and a game that is clearly made with more love and care than most AAA games (even taking feedback to improve the game in the discord) these days for a fraction of the price then this game is a highly recommend. The gay romance is just the cherry on the top. If anyone tells you that its 24/7 homosexual its not and they're being purposefully disingenuous. If anything the gay romance is a sub plot to the main story and the message of the horrors of war and fighting. ]]
