The combat is really fun. I think this game is honestly super mid up until after the train graveyard, but it picks up pretty hard post graveyard. The story is alright, I was kinda digging it when it started getting really meta at the end by I know people hate it but I wasn't a FF7 head before anyway so lol.
Gameplay is fun, the overall game is pretty paced, story's alright with a strong cast. I'll look forward to remake part 2.
