Great narrative hindered by forced loops. I almost dropped the game at one point because I was sick of the game forcing you into unwinnable scenarios where you had to loop again. It also wasn't always clear where exactly you need to go, forcing you to explore the same old castle over and over again just to enter the right room and inspect the specific object you'd seen a hundred times before. I found the characters boring at first but eventually they grew on me which redeemed the game in the end.
Maybe I'm just not into action games anymore, but I barely felt the "survival horror" of this one. It just felt like a boring shooter with the same uninteresting enemies popping up at obnoxious times. The game also seemed to make a big deal about all the weapons and upgrading them, but barely gives you enough ammo to use your favorites.
Great remake of a fantastic game. While others complain about the repetitive nature of Tartarus, I always find the dungeon crawling and combat the best part of these games (which is probably why I prefer Shin Megami Tensei to Persona). The biggest flaw of the game is that towards the end of the game, you kind of run out of daily life things to do, especially at night.
