First and most importantly, the game has an excellent story, well-told through an older-school aesthetic.

I love the way character progression is handled (similar to Final Fantasy X), the mix of platforming, the battle system that has some Valkyrie Profile elements and there is even a fantastic card mini-game very similar to Final Fantasy VIII.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
47 of 118 sampled reviews raised it
The real time execution of queued moves is a neat addition to normally stale turn-based combat.
Characters
Players who bring up Characters mostly praise it.

The music and character design within this game are on point and beautiful.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.

Although nowhere near legendary orchestra piece in modern gaming, the OST is at least above average and really fit the mood of the setting.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
16 of 118 sampled reviews raised it
It's not quite retro, but it's not modern either, and it oozes enough charm that I felt the graphics were an asset as opposed to a drawback.
