It has loads of charm and personality, and I completely understand why it's a major influence to lots of RPGs to come after this one. I really enjoyed the tone and overall vibe.

That being said, it's one of the most sluggish RPGs I've ever played, not only from the UI/UX side of things, but also from the game design side; inventory management is needlessly bureaucratic, item storage and money handling are tedious, walking speed is way too slow, menus take too long to show the contents or register your input, some of its mechanics are obscure and never explained.

Yes, it's an interesting game. It belongs in a museum.
