Really soulful ARPG from Square. It's pretty awkward at times but has so much personality. I really like the time progression system even if it led to some annoyances, I like the immersive feeling of knowing how long an area took my hero to complete, and that aspect is something pretty largely ignored in most RPGs.
Chapter 3 is a bit of a low point, with a lot of really difficult platforming right before you unlock a powerup that really helps you with platforming, but everything else is pretty fun and Chapter 6 is a particular highlight, with a really awesome final dungeon.
Overall once you can get past some of it's PS1 jank, this game is really good and well worth playing, even the story has some interesting beats (though seriously wtf was the point of Kojiro lol)
Not a bad way to spend a couple days.
