I don't want to get too in-depth, but its an extremely fun game with satisfying combat, and excellent job system and (for a team ninja game) surprisingly good bosses minus death machine. I was going to clown on the story, but it did make sense towards the end + DLCs. I imagine if I was a Final Fantasy fan, I would love it.
But my god is this game a grind fest. Level 500 equipment to beat the game (endgame starts at about 200), level 300 jobs, rat tails grinding and especially equipment grinding to make a half-competent build for the challenges that await you. I don't mind grinding too much, but it became a little too much.
This is my first Final Fantasy game I've played for more than an hour, and quite possibly my gateway drug into the entire series.
