I soyjak pointed at like 10 different nods towards PSX/SNES JRPG's and even then I'm genuinely amazed at how well-crafted and unique it's world, story and characters are.
It's taken nothing but the best from it's inspirations and wears them on it's sleeve - and so it's an absolute blast to play through if you have any love for the genre whatsoever.
Gameplay's ridiculously good too, the Overdrive system keeps you on your toes and makes sure you don't just spam your strongest moves and I absolutely adore that it has a leveling system akin to Chrono Cross and gets rid of grinding entirely.
Just a really solid game on all fronts honestly, I absolutely loved it.

Absolutely lovely. Story leaves something to be desired in places, and some character models and characterization lean a little too heavily on caricature and stereotype at times, but the vibes are immaculate.
The dungeons and puzzle design are fun, if short and few, the main characters are charming, the art is gorgeous, and the soundtrack is one of the best I've heard in my life.
The warmest, most inviting game I've played in some time.

It's a real shocking state of things when Blizzard, avoiding bad press from their many sexual harrassment accusations, practically re-release Overwatch with so many stripped-back features, missing characters on launch, some maps removed, and the player base is as toxic as ever.
