Up until the end of act 2 it was fun and solid game, not very ambitious or experimental but it has the heart of a traditional JRPG, exactly what I wanted. I would say at that point the game was probably worth a possible 3.5 stars.

But then I got to the post game(act 3) content and the storyline there went in a direction I strongly disliked, so I decided not to finish it. It went full potato and I don't regret stopping there, so here we are. Sad ting.

Edit: I watched act 3 on YouTube and good lord it was horrendous, glad I did not waste my time!
