This game was pretty good! Story was great, fun cast of characters, an incredible atmosphere, and of course the cutscenes are astounding for a PS1 game. Gameplay wise it got a sick blend of PS1 horror and exploration with (strategy?) JRPG. Music was good, but the boss theme just like Suikoden 1 got old halfway through; of course Koudelka had the decency of having a final boss theme lol. That being said while combat was neat, i can't deny it had some rough patches, like by the end i barely paid attention to the formation stuff (felt like it was safer to group the 3 together and go all out) and started to favour magic attacks. When it comes to endings, while i got the "bad" ending i felt as though it was a more satisfying outcome than the actual "good" ending.
