Solid game. Really exciting combat for an Atelier game and the synthesis is still lit. Wish items were more useful in battle or at least you could use them more often before running out of CC. Strong on the main story character stuff. Weak on the non-main story character stuff - it feels like it was cut out to be sold as DLC later or something? Because there's one ending and no time limit there isn't really much incentive to replay unless you want the battle challenge. But for a single playthrough experience I think this was pretty good and still holds up now.
