Sea of Stars feels like it was synthesized in a lab to be the 'perfect JRPG' and while it certainly follows a well-known formula, it's missing any kind of unique ingredient to make it stand out. Might get around to finishing it just for the sake of it, but my time with the game so far has been a very sterile and uninteresting experience. The music and graphics are pretty nice though. If you want a 16/32-bit JRPG love letter, I'd recommend Chained Echoes instead.
