was fun & addictive for a while but I quit for a multitude of reasons. it got way too grindy, the inspo for the hilichurls was EXTREMELY uncomfortable, the company is just crummy in general and has incredibly poor customer support, eula's family thing was...........no. all in all i decided it's not worth me wasting my life anymore.

Biased rating but this game was my LIFE

My first Rune Factory and I loved it!!! Great characters and super addictive gameplay. I only knocked off half a star because the music got SUPER repetitive at times. But man, as someone who loves both farming sims and JRPGs this is such a wonderful combo of both!

this counts as therapy i think

Unironically the most fun business sim game I have ever played

NGL I pretty much bought this one just to play Dreamin Chuchu, because I'm that much of a Luka simp. If you're not hopeless like me, other Divas are better. I did like the T-shirt editing function so I could stick all the Vocaloids in pride shirts to make Gamers tm mad.

I would really love to see this game get a remake more than any other Tales. The story is the best in the series and the characters are unforgettable, but unfortunately the gameplay hasn't aged amazingly well and the dungeons are tiresome. It's a classic for a reason, though, and Karma by Bump of Chicken is THEE all-time banger.

there's no option to say i played this in animal crossing

made me cry for 3 hours straight

Despite the frankly enormous song list, I don't think Future Tone is the best Diva. The arcade mechanics don't translate well to the Playstation controller, and Extreme mode is RIDICULOUSLY hard. I played on Extreme mode in all previous Playstation Diva games and yet I find it impossible it in this one. It makes me feel like a noob even though I've been with the series for a long time LOL. It's great that we get so many songs, but I hope they go back to making dedicated Diva games for the Playstation consoles instead of just porting the arcade mode again like they did with the Switch one.

That said, on Hard I do still find this game to be very fun and I appreciate that we have just so many songs to play, despite the poor balancing and other weird changes. (I miss the old Hold notes and "double" notes!) The module customization is also great! It's fun to be able to mix and match hairstyles with costumes. Also, points for Tricolore Airline because Tricolore Airline <3

This is basically a game for people who want to walk away from an explosion with all their best friends while wearing sunglasses. That's the feeling you get when you beat it.

Okay....amazing battle system, interesting characters, STELLAR soundtrack, and fun art direction. Why didn’t I finish it? Because you literally have to replay all the bosses like 4 times. Why they did this, I still don’t know. Anyway, 3.5/5 best game I will never finish ever.

It's not a perfect game, but it means so much to me and I keep coming back to it periodically. Definitely my favourite of the Persona series.

Tales of Vesperia has my whole heart. I cannot recommend it enough to JRPG enthusiasts. This was my second Tales, and while I loved playing Abyss before it, this was the one that cemented my obsession with the series.

- The central relationship between Yuri and Flynn is AMAZING. They go through their ups and downs, but they ultimately trust each other and serve as amazing narrative foils. Just A+ relationship here and it's impossible to not get invested
- Estelle goes through so much but she comes out the other side as a stronger person and it got me very emotional!! I admire her resilience so much and she is one of my favourite JRPG characters for that reason
- This is FOUND FAMILY: THE GAME. If you love the Found Family trope, you will adore this weird little guild and think about them constantly
- Judy is a babe and also SO fun to play as
- It's very gay it's so gay
- In general the gameplay is very fun and I enjoyed switching characters a lot
- I poured 90 hrs into this game and I was sad that it was over. Sad that there weren't another 90 hrs to go. Like...what.

overall play this game god i think about it so often

You’re welcome to murder me but I wasn’t that into it. Objectively I think it's a cool game but it wasn't to my personal tastes.
