An actually surprisingly okay JRPG made by...er...Redwood Shores? It's not particularly challenging and there are objective "best" strategies that carry you through every fight but its hard not to find enjoyment in doing JRPG shit in fucking helms deep or whatever. It's also the loudest game i have ever played in my life, it sounds like they put every single audio clip through the most aggressive compression possible and then put an extra 2 on the master just in case. The game also has easily the worst equip menu of any RPG i've ever played.

Hysterically fanficcy in spots, like making your party fight with Gandalf on the bridge while ignoring the fact that the entire fellowship was watching him drive the balrog back during that scene, or the final boss which has to be seen to be believed.
