Platinumed in 80 hours.

Unfortunately, I can't recall the exact day I first booted this up. I got it at launch, knowing full well that I haven't enjoyed the Cold Steel saga nearly as much as prior Kiseki games. I got through the first third or so, hated it, and put it on the backburner for two years.

I can't help but feel relieved that I've finally completed it. If you like the tropes from the other 3 Rean-centered games, good! You'll love this one. The harem trash, same-old combat system, and the writer's inability to let characters die/stay dead all return. To the game's credit, the soundtrack is excellent and this felt like the most "packed" Kiseki game to date. But really, if you've played the others you already know what to expect. Don't touch this if you didn't like them.
