146 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
YS has always been a fight and explore between story games and this game does all three well.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
140 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The combat mechanics and equipment stats are quite complicated and stimulating for an adults brain.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
127 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
This is a fantastic ARPG for the fights and exploring on land.
Graphics

40 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The action combat was amazing, songs were almost perfect and graphics were spectacular.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
40 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
But don’t get me wrong, there’s so much voice acting, story depth, and character development, you eventually get over it.
Characters
Players who bring up Characters mostly praise it.
18 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Character design is still strong, and the voice acting is well done (though half the characters mispronounce Adol's name as "Addle" instead of "Aahdoll" which is very weird).
