an incrediblly ambitious project of a video game in terms of the storytelling. i enjoyed every minute of it despite some of the frustrating dungeons. it really intrigued me instantly at the first hour of the game. some of the lines that were carried by the characters really captured my heart and somewhat felt relatable to me, personally. it's very unfortunate that they weren't able to finish up the 2nd disc the way they wanted to, but the story was still peak. reading "perfect works" after beating this game makes so much sense that they weren't able to fit the whole arc into one game.

ah... the second child of the xeno franchise...

the most elegant and sophisticated xeno game, in my opinion. remarkable soundtrack, specifically one choral arrangement sung in acapella. amazing cast of characters. it is giving psychological thriller space opera that's very atmospheric, you'd feel like you're all alone in the endless space of nothingness.

an amazing warmup and scratch-of-the-surface start of a beautiful trilogy.

it might not be the best xeno game and it has probably the worst dungeon i have ever witnessed in any video game, but heck i still enjoyed the story!

everyone was so hyped when i started this game and i totally get why. all of my questions about the plot from the first two games were answered here. the twists and turns blew my socks off. i was devastated when i beat the game and had to say goodbye to all the characters that i have grown attached to. it is an unsung masterpiece and it deserves a proper remake, THE WHOLE TRILOGY.

the first game that introduced me to a POST-GAME DEPRESSION.

the first final fantasy that i beat when i was still in mid school. i remember i couldn't stop crying after beating this game and i felt demotivated to do anything for months because of a huge grief that i felt 🤣

this was my first soulsborne game that i played and i was extremely intimidated when i started it. but bruh, IT WAS SUCH AN AMAZING EXPERIENCE. it definitely had some tough moments, but it was A HELL LOT OF FUN!

the soundtrack, settings and the boss designs are eerily and hauntingly beautiful! if you have not played any souls-like game, i'd highly recommend this one as your first start!

my very first introduction to the xeno franchise, hence this game will always have a special place in my heart 🧡

GALBADIA GARDEN THEME SLAPS 💥

amazingly hella fun game, but the optional boss can kiss my butt.

roxas deserved better 😭💔

MAYU FRUSTRATED THE F OUT OF ME.

i was not entirely sure if i could finish this game because of the pacing at first, but HOLY SHIT THE PAYOFF WAS UNBELIEVABLY AMAZING. i'm so glad that i decided to push through because the story just got better! estelle has also become one of my favorite main JRPG protagonists! i cannot wait to play trails in the sky SC!
