I get why people like this but I think nostalgia plays a big part most of the time. Sure, I've been playing every day this last week because I was enjoying the game so much that I just wanted to play it... but the story and characters weren't so interesting. There're a lot of games that have an interesting story but dull characters or vice versa so the game is balanced. However, this is not the case and maybe I feel a bit disappointed because I only heard people praising the game. The story is somewhat simple and it doesn't have much to it. I do like the main characters but I think they should have more development or a better story if they're going to be in the party.

I liked the combat system but (again) it's nothing spectacular. The class system seemed cool but in the long run it wasn't worth toying with it to see what could fit the characters better and I just used the basic build (matching each character with their element).

I don't like men wanting power or wanting to live more so f* Babi.

Also, this was a huge disappointment: the fight with Deadbeard. When I heard about him I was scared since he was the "most difficult boss of the game" but I had more problems with the fights that came before him? In comparison this fight was like taking a break.

Overall I really liked the game (and music!) so I'm looking forward to playing the second part and see if it improves this :)
