wrote a short review
I liked
- cute cinematic cutscenes midbattle
- junk stuff are clearly labelled for sale “Valuable meant to be sold”
- similarity to golden sun
- characters are pretty unique, unconventional and likeable
I dislike
- battles a little repetitive and boring
- no minimap!!!
- no button to easily optimize equipment, making it a chore when some eq are character specific and will only go to one person anyway
- no 2x mode, battles very draggy. tactics/strategies are quite limited and simple. characters don’t feel like they have any power spikes as the story progresses
- map puzzles are extremely easy and unchallenging, bordering on tedious and boring
- story felt extremely rushed. the final boss in the main story wasnt even the mastermind. ‘true ending’ locked behind a collection sidequest. why?? many storylines not tied up such as what happened to brugraves.
