Frankly, I don't see what all the fuss is about.
Sea of Stars is a very beautiful RPG with great visuals and some pretty subpar writing. The dialogue and story are underwhelming in the extreme.
Combat is initially fun, but it can't sustain a 25-30-hour experience, largely because it stays pretty one-note throughout.
I've heard a lot of praise for the music, but I didn't feel it was anything particularly special.
Don't go in expecting anything anywhere near the level of Chrono Trigger. Instead, expect a C-grade Golden Sun, and you'll likely have fun.
