  • Played this game for the first time recently (well, the original Steam/PC release), and loved it. It’s a very relaxing RPG with tons of character-focused dialogue. It warms its way into the plot very gradually.

    The battle system is especially fun. Characters feel unique and distinct, and the magic system is similar to FF7’s materia. The combat is turn-based like FF10’s, where turn order can be manipulated, and it takes place on a grid like Fire Emblem without being a full-blown SRPG. Think Chrono Trigger, where it’s still like a traditional turn-based battle system, but position on the field matters.

    I’m curious about how the remake will look, and how the hybrid battle system would work. But if you’re a junkie for traditional JRPGs, I’d give the original a try. It often goes on sale for 50% off.
