Different games do different things for people. But this one, it just wasn't all that for me. The setting and characters were memorable and the music was great. But the story and gameplay were just lacking for me. Final boss was awesome as hell and the ending DID make me cry but other than that, there's some flaws in its pacing, slow gameplay, and english voice acting. I don't think this is a good impression for someone looking to get into the series.
