Pretty much took everything I didn't like about 2 and axed it while maintaining a fantastic combat system and a great story. One of my favorite games of all time.

A lot of games have tried to replicate the Souls series but this one has done the best by far at it.

Quick, dumb fun in the best way possible

It sucks to see a game franchise you have invested hundreds of hours in throughout a decade shoot off its own limbs over and over and over again.

BRUTES! The faster you can kill those brutes the better.

I need to study for a physics final but fuck man, knowing how many ion thrusters I need on this fighter is far more important

This game was so cool when it came out and I was excited to see what the devs did with it. It has been 4 years and it feels like they've only added a handful of maps and new ghost types. Still fun with friends for a bit tho.

Cool when fighting bots and during story exposition dumps, kinda ass when doing anything else

I gotta convince the English localization team that they do not have to use the word 'senpai' every time a younger character addresses an older one

Becomes far more fun the less serious you play it.

In my opinion the best classic JRPG ever made

Yeah it's a bitch to get into but it's pretty fun if you like grind/number go up games
