Objectively? it's not the best game. Personally? it's my favorite game of over 150 games.
Why is it my most-liked game?
artistic choices:
Whether it be the design of the city or the music design, It gives the perfect vibe of medieval times mixed in with a bit of magic (fantasy). As you spend a lot of time in the city, as well as will hear certain music it is nice that they reinform your perception of how the game's world is portrayed as.
Story + characters:
I Mc's team contains a good mix of personalities and character designs (that fit into the world). For all characters, they feel they seem to be living, and based on their personalities you could imagine them doing the same things if they existed in reality.
Gameplay:
Difficulty-wise I felt it was good, not too easy, but nor did I win against some final bosses too easily. Maybe not the best System, but I felt it was quite good and I enjoyed it a lot especially diffusing circles or using ultimate abilities.
I also remember playing some side quests gathering items to either craft or buy certain cool armor.
Overall:
Everything felt so alive combined with a good combat system made the game feel so good. I have played it at least 2.5 times and even now while I'm not playing it I still like to listen to some music from the game. (e.g. toberu mono, sounds of the city)
