I finished this game a little bit ago and I've been sitting on my thoughts, but I think I can safely say now that this is one of my favorite RPGs I've played. I loved the cast, the music, the plot, the gameplay, pretty much everything. The only thing I had minor issues with was how hard it is to grind courage in the late game (I missed Naoto social link because of it) and how the romance is handled. But those are very minor problems, and overall I would recommend this game to any RPG fan.
This game is conflicting for me but ultimately I feel that it misses the mark on several important notes. The gameplay itself is very one note and is never built upon, with the exception of increased hacking difficulty, although hacking feels like a detriment to this game as well. It often interrupts the flow of the game's action combat style. The open world does a poor job at selling the global setting and repeatedly visiting a handful of locations numerous times gets stale. The soundtrack and character designs are the highlight of this game, there is not a bad song in this track list. I think this game peaks in Ending A but never reaches those heights again. Overall I enjoyed the first 10 hours of this game very much, but once Ending B started my enjoyment dropped and I began to see more flaws in this game's design. Several moments of poor gameplay also hindered my appreciate of certain story events, which I find unfortunate. The story itself is alright, though I don't think it's exceptional.
