Played this straight after finishing I Am Setsuna as wanted to complete both titles before they were removed from the PS+ Catalogue. Took 38 hours to platinum. This game is supposed to be the successor to I Am Setsuna so I am making a direct comparison.

I liked the music and felt the combat system was more enjoyable and had better explained mechanics than I Am Setsuna.

The art style was pleasant to look at but I preferred the aesthetic of I Am Setsuna.

I did not warm to the characters and was disappointed with the story. I enjoyed the story up until the first "ending" and if they had concluded the game there, I would have been very happy but instead they chose to drag the story out for many more hours and the plot became increasingly nonsensical....I ended up fast-forwarding through a lot of the cutscenes towards the end just to get the game completed as I was bored.
