This is definitely one of the more fun action FF games, although its bogged down by a couple superfluous systems. The story is deserving of the name, and actually adds deep complexity to the original FF. the settings are directly ripped from the rest of the series, and I highly enjoy that. There's a lot of variety in unlockable jobs, but frankly i picked the two i liked and almost never strayed from that, although being able to swap between two on a whim really helped. As soon as I was given the ability to take pot shots at range with a lance, I kept that for the rest of the game, and it never stopped being affective.
Loot always comes in a deluge. make sure you turn on autodismantle because your inventory will fill up fast and you dont want to spend time in your menus discarding stuff yourself. upgrading your equipment is never helpful, because it'll be replaced before you can get used to it, so all in all i feel like the equipment systems needed an overhaul.
Overall tho i had a lot of fun tho
