This is an underrated game with excellent music.

It's HARD though. Rumor is that the western release was mistakenly made more difficult, rather than the other way around, so you will probably have to do quite a bit of grinding to make it through comfortably.

There are many main characters to choose from, and the setting blends science and fantasy together in a way that just works for me.

I wouldn't blame anyone for disliking it, but the challenge of the game has me periodically coming back after years to give it another go.
