4★ - I really like the game.

I really wanted to love this game like I did its predecessor but just couldn't do it. Be it for over hyping or something else. But I found that the RPG elements dug a little bit too much into my enjoyment for this title especially when it came to doing missions. I don't really find it fun trying out multiple characters for a certain quest to find out I might of had the right build from the start but I just didn't star level them enough. Or a character out of the multiple choices had a broken move I hadn't seen yet. Other than all that. The rhythm side of the game is still top notch and so much fun.

I've been a fan of this series since the first entry, over a decade ago now, and I'm so happy it gained a new entry on modern consoles, adding songs from the recent FF games since the last Theatrhythm, deeper RPG mechanics and more challenging control methods.
The team went far and beyond when it comes to loving details, with the addition of the "Series" mode which lets you relive the games' stories by going through the songs and defeating the enemies in the order they would appear in those, multiple accessibility and customization options, and a new RPG system that better displays the characters' unique personalities through their roles and skills.
With over 500 songs, including ones from other SQ titles like SaGa, Nier and more, currently there's not a better rhythm game on consoles than this one.
