Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
While I appreciate a lot of the beautiful artwork as well as most of the characters’ arcs, I found playing the game to be extremely tedious.

The art is all amazing: the sprites, character designs, backgrounds, end cards and cinematic graphics (the illustrations in the middle of the story).
