wish it had more substance, pretty shallow once you are used to the artstyle, also the artstyle loses some of its effectiveness by being made almost exclusively of random blobs that mesh together and leave no impression and feel almost lazy, but it gets points for its unique gameplay, the extremely well made animation and art, and its very weird and unique way of handling battles (very hard encounters, never lets you feel powerful, no easy encounters at all, but no consequences for failure and almost always a complete restoration right after)

(also the games consumable balance is bad, spells almost always do more then consumables, and while consumables make up for in better numbers, those better numbers are mostly not needed, only time i used consumables was in the crazy batshit last fight)

not my first game of the year just didnt finish before the new years
great story just at the same time very poorly written/handled
+ characters kinda fucking sucked villains included (exceptions apply: poppi is my sweet baby i love her more then anything and gramps and dromarch were also pretty great they are old man yaoi)
+ gameplay was pretty fun :)

would say more about story but i dont wanna write a giant disorganized mess in here maybe ill do it some other time
