Really great casual and fun game that was enjoyable to 100%. Not exactly a "goty" game for me but it didn't necessarily feel like it had to be. The final level was brutal

DOWN DOWN DOWN BY THE RIVER~

Now that enough time has passed I can safely say this game was deserving of its 4/5 rating for me. What it lacked in substance gameplay wise was made up for in spades with the narrative, so much fun as well trying out all the different builds with eikon abilities. Incredibly polished piece of fiction.

Why didn’t anyone tell me I’ve been missing out on peak this whole time

Honestly this game surprised me with how quickly I got sucked into the gameplay, had lots of fun with materia + weapon combos. Haven't played the original yet but I'm excited to after experiencing this one.

Weird experience overall. I dig the aesthetic and what they were going for but it didn't seem to fully deliver on most ends. The stack system was fun but took a while to get going, dungeon crawling was painfully mid, and the story wasn't anything special. But the characters were charming and engaging enough for me to want to finish it. Certainly scratched the smt combat itch I was wanting.

Albeit repetitive gameplay wise, the narrative and route E made it worth my time.

Most fun I've had with a game in so long but the story held it back quite a bit unfortunately
