Genuinely great story (I am such a sucker for rebuild-esque meta sequels) and wonderful characterization marred by a pretty terrible structure that is full of straight up filler, slow walk segments every 5 minutes, and absolutely nothing sidequests. The battle system has a lot of promise but there are several major flaws I hope end up addressed in the next two games with that as well. Rebirth seems well positioned to really build off of all the good stuff here though.
