When I first played this game I wasn't feeling the combat. I'm not sure if I was playing another RPG or action game at the time to make me dislike the ATB system used here. When I jumped back in, however, I could barely put it down. I think the combat is amazing. While I definitely do lean on the turn-based side of things, I do appreciate how this system tried to have some strategic play at all and its pretty effective.

But I guess I should go into the story a little bit. Personally...yeah not a fan of the whispers. Personally I think there could've been another way to deviate from the main path without being meta about it. I like meta stuff (MGS2 is my favorite Metal Gear for example), but I just think these damn ghosts are just plain rude. Despite their existence I absolutely adore the characterization of the cast in this game. It's perfect; can't give it enough credit. I'll admit the ending has me confused if intrigued. I hope Rebirth manages to have a payoff instead of going all Rise of Skywalker for going this direction at all.
