Completed all main 5 routes.

Gameplay: Might not be as fast as I love my Ys, but it's still pretty good and solid. Quite difficult even on normal difficulty (although second route was a breeze until endgame lol) Variety of weapons is nice, but Punch 2 Explode was my go-to in the end.

Story: Not going to tell much here to avoid spoiling too much, but I think this is the closest I've been to a story that tops my favorite game trilogy (Trails in the Sky), at first I had my doubts because it seemed like it focused on delivering with OST and gameplay, but the other routes changed my mind.

OST: Great, and I love how some quests have a thematic soundtrack composed for them, which is a neat detail.

Characters: Great, same with Story, the other routes vastly changed my mind about them.

Misc: Great, Quests are quite rewarding and while some might be a little bit tedious, at least the QoL features this game has makes them fun to complete.

Overall: I had fun, and the game may leave a big void on me lol. All I can say is that I wish I had played this a little bit sooner haha, but oh well, it was still 35+~ish hours well spent.
