The "full artworks" in the inventory, whether it's portraits of monsters, or even images of items and details on the story pages, they look fantastic and pretty.

Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
Just like the look of it, the gameplay feels very retro (although more smooth and responsive than actual old games I suppose?), which could be off-putting or frustrating to players who have a hard time mastering this kind of game, but personally it felt very natural and intentional, so it's exactly what it should be IMO.
