this game is so damn good man, gonna remember it as "the game I played instead of studying for exams". while everyone will tell you the story is lacking (true), the combat is no question the best in the entire megaten series to date.
i probably won't play vengeance right away, and pick it up on steam during a sale or smt, but depending on how much they change i might come back to the base game.
to anyone looking at playing vengeance in june, id recommend doing the LAW route first if you're looking to complete all endings quick, since the miracle it gives is genuinely broken in New Game + and lets you breeze through the game. otherwise, the chaos route is the most fun (in my opinion).
