Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
146 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
All Trails games have a beyond-stellar story woven into more than just the location it is tied to(For the most part)-but Reverie easily one-upped all past entries up to this point.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
79 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
That said, where this game truly shines is in the gameplay aspect.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
38 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Who knew combining the rush of gacha reward systems and snappy turn-based combat can make grinding so addictive.
Characters
Players who bring up Characters mostly praise it.
37 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Coupled with a cast of over 50 playable characters, it hardly ever gets boring even after 100 hours.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
19 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
A vast majority of the game's soundtrack is new, but some old favorites do return(And some have been remixed!) so that everyone is pleased-but most importantly, it's a Trails game, so why would you doubt the Soundtrack would be anything less than stellar?
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
11 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Reverie's graphics aren't amazing, but it is rather impressive how far Falcom has come in terms of graphical fidelity and attention to detail with the engine they have.
