I really didn't expect anything playing this game after finishing Lacrimosa of Dana. But it was, fortunately, a purchase well made. The game itself is relatively short. I clocked at about 50-ish hour to finish it. Admittedly, I was a bit rushed, but at least I got 100% map completion. One thing that I think will be the main point of this game, of course, is its gameplay. It'sfast-paced, flashy, and challenging, especially on higher difficulties. Although, I am not very good at it, so some would say that the game is easier than other Ys titles. i like the varied aspects of the game such as its exchange system, materials and weapons/ armors refinement, quests, etc. materials gathering can be a bit of a grind-fest, and money is somewhat rather hard to come by. But it's nothing nearly frustrating. One thing that I don't really like is that the ending is so, very abrupt. It just... ended. No epilogue, no further explanation, nothing. I know story is not Ys' strongest side, but this time it kind of just left me a abit wanting. All in all, it is a solid Ys title.
