It's a visually beautiful game and probably the best looking one on the console... however this game is just really boring.

The gameplay becomes very tedious when it has you constantly backtracking through levels and fighting enemies that are much lower than your own, and it doesn't help that there's zero puzzles to break up the gameplay. Separately, while I like the games gimmick, the spell naming shit that creates better spells, it felt like more could have been done. A remake would do this game a great service because the story and characters from what I remember aren't that bad. The soundtrack isn’t very memorable either which is a shame considering it’s a Square game.
