( I am only judging this on story as I played through this long after it was relevant content) A very safe traditional fantasy story that shines with likable characters and excellent music. Manages to avoid my most constant frustration with FF14's writing, which is threatening to do something interesting but then deciding not to. Mind you, it does this by never taking any big swings, but a simple story told well is fine thing in my book.

Does not quite stack up to FTL because of purely personal taste for me, but make no mistake, masterful tactical game that is brilliantly simple.

You ever play a game that has porn in it that makes you cry? I have.
Was really neat at the time but ultimately lives or dies by its gimmick, there are better management games and the combat is dreadful. Very charming and cute though.

it's really neat but I feel like I can't really pass judgement on this one until we get more, that'd be like giving an impression of Undertale right after you finish Snowden.

its good, you dont need me to tell you that, there are no more interesting things to say about this one.
Delightful game with that patented Earthbound 'Looming Darkness' ready to pop out at all times. The music hits that exact mix of quirky and and catchy that you want in this genre. F R E S H
What could have been a neat story about struggling to throw off the chains of colonial power is swept to the side for a royal manchild's quest to fit as much scenery as possible into his mouth. plenty of likeable characters but some just bizarre story decisions.

Anyone who looks at my games played will notice I like niche stuff made by aeutors and boy howdy, this is the best of the best. Like any of those games you need to be down for 'one of those' but this game did something no other like it had, it completely enraptured me and then ended in such a way where I felt like it was definitively over and I felt no need to come back. No stringing me along with the promise of unending content or microtransactions, it said what it wanted to say and definitively gave you a point to stop.

Had quite a bit of fun until I finished exploring and the game really tried to get me to spend more money, just fundamentally become a different (and worse) game. The story is incredibly hit or miss with some super questionable clothing choices.

Easily up there with games like Undertale, Lisa, Jimmy and the Pulsating Mass, etc. Superb in presentation and tone with a unique and fun combat system. Story is told incredibly well and is devastating.
Something so warm and fuzzy about playing this one, easily my favorite run-based game.
Some of it is undoubtable inertia but damn, I went from dreading cutscenes in A Realm Reborn to really enjoying the story in this one.

I am one of the freaks that likes this one a lot? Honestly appreciate it more than 3 and about on par with 1.
Brought much needed changes to formula for a franchise that I love a whole lot but had gotten quite long in the tooth. Full voice acting really helps things come together, biggest thing I would want from later titles is to ditch the player-insert characters and handle the queer aspects of the game better.
