I actually hate this game. The world is interesting, the combat isn't bad but not great, and overall it'd be something I could play through and get some enjoyment out of it.
But no, they couldn't let that be.
The game is built in a way where if you're off to do quests, you have to go through map transfers, but to do map transfers, you have to defeat enemies spawn guarding the exits/entrances, because you can't move to another map when you're in combat, so you have to fight 1000 battles doing side quests and stuff that you normally wouldn't ever do, which makes the game just unplayable bore fest trash. They did a lot well but one design choice completely ruined the whole game without remorse.
