A lazy remaster of one of the hardest turn-based JRPGs around. So much so, the remaster added an easy mode to entice new players. The game forces you to think of strategies and team composition when tackling bosses. In some cases, you wouldn't even be able to grind past them due to certain mechanics. The game itself has the usual things of an SMT game with similar demon designs and an in-depth fusing mechanic. The extent of the remaster is simply to upscale it to fit modern TVs, other than that, the textures are pixelated and the cutscenes are still 4:3. The world and environment are bleak with not a lot to it, you're pretty much playing this game for its difficulty.
