serviceable, but full of ass ideas that really drag it down.
what can i say? this game's legendary status is more than earned. i cannot imagine playing this for the first time in 1998, it must have been absolutely mind-exploding. playing it for the first time in 2024, sure, there are some rough edges. some of the bosses aren't great and the gameplay leaves a little bit to be desired.
but, when you have a story as good as this, when the voice acting is as great as this, when you have the brilliant ability to balance comedy and drama and sometimes seamlessly combine the two, when the music is this great, when the codec conversations are probably the best out of any MGS game (thanks to yoji shinkawa's incredible character portraits), when you have the brilliant fourth-wall shattering, and when the overall atmosphere and colour palette is one of the most immersive of any game i've ever played in spite of the aged graphics, fucking hell man. i cannot help but adore this game. hideo kojima is a horny little genius.

one hell of an addictive experience what with the surprising amount of meat on its bones. you have the individual songs but also quests that you can do, and a full versus mode as well. additionally, this just oozes with so much adoration for final fantasy (both the music and the series as a whole) that you can't help but fall in love with it. pretty much every game gets at least a few songs, including spin-offs and side ones. the gameplay is just so much fun. this game rocks!
