kinda mixed on this one. like i get it, it’s clearly real cool, but it was way less glimmeringly perfect than i’d hoped. the graphics were obvs outstanding, but the gambit system seems to have been both inadvisably fiddled with (don’t make me choose which class my characters are permanently locked in to! i don’t know anything! do a game design and choose the most interesting arrangements of classes for the story got darn it!) and was also not as deep as i had imagined (i was expecting to be able to put the controller down and just watch, but the gambits didn’t actually cover a lot of stuff that i wanted so i had to keep my hands on the wheel more than i’d hoped).
anyway i had a good time but i got to like the 3rd or 4th town and was like ok yeah i get it i think. it’s cool and i respect those for whom it is their favourite. maybe i’d like the original more.
