It's a great turn based RPG, with gorgeous visuals, well polished mechanics+level design and likeable characters with interesting skills, albeit with a passable story.
My biggest gripe with the game is how long it takes to clear mid to late game dungeons (with some non-bosses taking 10+ minutes to kill). If feels like if you're not overpowered from grinding dungeons and min-maxing your build, you will have to go through the motions for every combat. Sometimes it isn't even hard, just long and boring.
Also, although the amount of items and side-objectives to unlock is really great, a lot of them require random drops that you may not find until replaying the specific dungeon for the 3-5th time. It really took out the fun out of the power fantasy.
Overall, still pretty solid, and if you are interested and not a hardcore jrpg player, I would suggest just playing on the lowest difficulty, it won't take the enjoyment out of the game.
