Stylish sci-fi adventure and overall excellent JRPG.
The game respects your time. No random battles, no grinding, non-active party members get full XP so you can switch them at any time.
The story is nothing exceptional, but it's a decent and fast moving thriller and I enjoyed exploring the different planets. You eventually get a roster of 10 ragtag exotic party members and they play very differently. The art and cutscenes are great, with a Phantasy Star 4 feeling. In general the game feels a lot like a cross between Phantasy Star 4 and Chrono Trigger, although it's combat system is unique.
The turn based combat with Style, Hyper and Abilities that can be used once and then need to be refreshed, can be highly strategic and challenging, with an emphasis on planning ahead and timing abilities, but there are lower difficulties if you don't enjoy tactical min maxing. The character's abilities load out can also be switched at any time and at heroine difficulty , it's necessary to do this to counter the optional bosses and dungeon.
I really enjoyed this game .
