This is one of favorite games of all time.

That said, this game a nightmare. The absurd difficulty at the beginning, repetitive floors of Tartarus, randomized inheritance, overpowered floor bosses and not being able to directly control your party are all why I can't rate it 5 stars.

However, the amazing story, memorable characters, innovative systems and consistent atmosphere make it all worth it. And nothing tops the feeling of defeating a difficult floor boss.
