Story, characters, and dialogue were the stars of this show. The variation in environments a joy to experience too. Also had the right amount of exploration for a linear game and just the right length at 15-20 hrs.

Combat was plenty of fun, but it could have been harder. Once you learn your best ability combos it becomes very satisfying, but can be a little one-note. I should have played on the harder difficulty, because on normal I literally never died.

Very little replay value aside from achievement hunting and collecting outfits but overall 100% worth a playthrough.
