Tiene un sistema de combate moderadamente bueno. Aunque la mayoría de mecánicas con inservibles (es imposible bloquear un ataque cuando el enemigo empieza la animación. Tienes que predecirlo tú).
Todo lo demás es un moderado desastre. OST decente, diseño artístico bastante bonito... pero lo demás es demasido vago.

that little witch lady's fetch quests were the only semi-interesting section of the game loop. every time I was forced to progress the story instead of mindlessly increment some stat or other, I was reminded that those stats were going up for absolutely no good reason. utter waste of time. deleted from my hard drive out of fear; I knew I would have plunked down further hours of my life simply out of inertia if I had kept Integrity and Faithlessness within controller's reach.
perhaps worthwhile to the most fervent number-clutchers in the game liking community, though only after all the better RPG franchises have been exhausted. I still have too many good games to play to settle for this one.

No va a ser el mejor SO para atraer nuevos fans a la saga y tiene una lista bastante grande de cosas a mejorar. Pero prefiero centrarme en lo positivo. El juego es bastante entretenido, no aburre para nada. La historia, aún siendo un cliché andante, entretiene. Y jugablemente es bastante divertido. El diseño artístico de ciertos escenarios también mola mucho, y sobre todo destaca en su diseño de pjs. En la bso Motoi Sakuraba, poco más qye decir. Tiene bastante cosas opcionales.
Lo que me parece curioso, y esto ya no positivamente. Me he saltado dos SO y no he visto la evolución natural de la saga, pero tiene bastantes mecánicas, la mayoría, del de snes y psx y algunas de ellas están simplificadas respecto a juegos de hace más de 20 años.
En resumen, me lo he pasado bien en muchos momentos del juego, el final sobre todo, pero no va a ser un juego a destacar, es pasable básicamente. Aún así ver jrpgs en este tipo de temática más espacial y de ciencia ficción, siempre es bienvenido. Y esperando el SO6.

The most milquetoast game I've ever played.
There was barely a plot, there was no motivations for the characters to remain together, I couldn't tell you a single thing about any of the characters, their likes/dislikes etc.
Which is a real shame, the characters, individually, are passable, they're good, you can tell if a bit more time and care was put into it you would have something.
I could not tell you a single thing about the plot, it's low stakes the whole way though and I feel you don't ever really answers for why: why is this happening? why do WE have to go and do it? etc etc.
I like music, I like the art direction, I like the zones, albeit they're pretty barren.
Star Ocean 4 remains my #1.
Star Ocean 5 is probably at the bottom of my list.
Which is, disappointing :(
Edit: If you want to win just play as Miki and spam heal manually lmao I had no issues at any point in the game, a real snoozefest.

Worst game in the series. Reused music for TTEOT and TLH, the combat is broken and feels bad and the game decides to slow you down during regular gameplay. It's very annoying.
The game feels about 2/3rds complete before the developers stopped development.
Even the one post-dungeon is bad and feels rushed.

To be honest, I. did had this game for 6 years it came out but I never beated it by then because well the exploration Frequent backtracking all over the place especially for sidequests is really jank.
Story and characters were really Hallow. Literally the only characters with development is Emmerson and Relia*since she's centered around the story.
Reused SO3/SO4 music.
You can move around on cutscenes
Dialogues during battles where sound effects is so loud you can barely hear what theyre saying or have time to read the text lol
Battle skills are copy paste From SO3/SO4 Lol
20-30 hours long altho I don't mind too much.
However those are the bad points. heres my personal semi biased Good points of the game.
1.Battle System is really fun I really enjoy maining Fidel,Anne,Victor the most,but Emmerson is great. Altho. some bosses are Health sponges.
2.Really nice Graphics! it's really stunning as this is was a ps3 game to early ps4 era.
3.Good music altho it reuses some but.it has it own osts.
4.Reverse Rush Is cool,Ethereal blast is powerful.
5.Item Creation is actually fun. Well sometimes. I kinda like So2s more lol
6. Challengingly fun
That's all I can say. I Like the game But as a Star ocean. I do Wish it could've been so much better. Hopefully Divine Force Turns out better.
