50% of themes are praise8% are divided42% are complaints
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
78 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Fortunately, the narrative gradually introduces more serious developments, giving the characters greater emotional weight.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
69 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
It's a fun battle system, and a fair introduction to classic FF gameplay.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
37 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The graphics are something to look at and the character designs are adorable, but the environment design feels archaic and oversized, which compounds other pacing issues.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
37 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Lann and Reynn can combine with Mirages of compatible sizes to create stacks, effectively merging several characters into stronger combat units.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
19 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
A quick word on the voice acting, most of it seems reasonable or good, options for Japanese and English I believe, the one fox character I find to be half annoying and half cute in the way she talks, will say "lets-the-go" instead of "let's go", it gets old fast.
Steam Deck
Players who bring up Steam Deck mostly praise it.
19 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Doing so would also make the game fully playable on Steam Deck (which honestly feels like the perfect home for a game like this), and would almost certainly bring in new players.
