The WhatsNext verdict
For Fans of sweeping, emotional JRPGs who appreciate massive explorable worlds, deep party-customization systems, and character-driven epic narratives.: An expansive world and a deeply poignant story anchor a rich combat and class system where experimentation and chain-attack strategy continuously pay off across a massive campaign. Tradeoff: The sheer volume of concurrent battle mechanics and frequent, lengthy narrative cutscenes can overwhelm players seeking immediate action or quick, uninterrupted play sessions.
