Probably the poster child for cult classic. Flew pretty under the radar when it first came out, but had an incredibly creative battle system and world. To people who say that Monolith Soft only has one plot, you're... not wrong, but the story is still incredibly good, and the twists feel surprising when they happen. Also has one of the absolute top tier soundtracks and is the immediate answer to anyone who claims Motoi Sakuraba can only write same-y uninspired tracks. Yes, the voice acting is not great, but honestly it didn't bother me that much and the rest of the game is so good that it makes up for it.
