The game's story initially had some really interesting themes of political strife and vigilantism that end up getting thrown to the side for the jrpg classic ancient evil bullshit in the 3rd act. Combat system was also not very fun, despite how much hype i had heard about it beforehand. The characters are all unique and charming, but estellise can be annoying at times. Having a dog as a playable character in a jrpg is also always a plus. The sudden appearance of the "big bad" at the end was really lame aa he had absolutely no build up to his character whatsoever, causing the final battle to lack any weight at all.
