The biggest and most mechanically complex FF so far, which is both its strength and weakness. There are no fewer than seven schools of magic, with so many spells to collect, on top of all the other weapons and abilities. Lots of cool job combos to experiment with, though it took me until the back third of the game to have enough tools to really appreciate the flexibility. I would probably like this even more on a replay where I could plan my early progress more carefully, rather than getting overwhelmed by all the options. The mix of comedy and comic book drama makes for a cozy tone that reminds me of playing default asset RPG maker games.
