Just an amazing game through and through. From the addictive combat, to the well-realized cast of characters, to the engaging story that ends with one of the best final bosses ever, every aspect of it excels. One of my all-time favorites.
The climax to not just Cold Steel, but the saga that had been building from Sky. Featuring an insanely large cast of characters, it proves a fitting and satisfying end to a story hundreds of hours in the making.
A bit of a mid-arc reset, jumped forward a bit into the future. The cast of characters is greatly expanded, as is the intrigue of the plot. Suffers from being a bit formulaic but is overall a fantastic experience with one of the best endings of any game I've played.
