I absolutely ADORE this game. I don't think it's deserving of all the hate it has been receiving. It is such an addicting game. As someone who loves farming sims, crafting, RPGs, and dungeons crawling this game was the perfect mix of it all. Not to mention the stories are so good and entertaining. I loved how combat worked in this game. The class system is so cool and the combat is simple enough for me to understand and not quit the game because it's too hard. Farming and cooking is important because you'll need food to survive boss battles which gives you a reason to farm. Not to mention I love all the npcs and their backstories. One of my top 3 games of the year if not my top 1 I love it that much and can't pull myself away from it. Also forgot to mention the game is visually beautiful and the character art is *chefs kiss*
