A game that tries to accomplish a LOT, and for the time of its release, it has a lot of things that definitely do impress. It references a lot of pop culture from Street Fighter, to Alien, implementing these influences into its gameplay. Definitely not your typical RPG, but is intentionally trying to have a lot of fun with itself. This is shown through the expert detail of visual and sound design, both which are stunning. However, I never really got as addicted or drawn to Live a Live as I expected to. Perhaps as it doesn't follow traditional addictive JRPG elements as its successors did. That being said, I completely respect and agree with the fandom that surrounds it. Unfortunately, it just wasn't the game for me.
