    RPG Maker at it's finest

    While the game's job system and mechanics are fun, basically Final Fantasy 5 and Bravely Default mashed together, it really seems like a low effort game from a AAA company. I don't mind retro inspired art in games, but this game seems to botch so much that was right with retro JRPGs. All of the NPCs are stationary and just waiting for you to come by and interact with them before they do anything and only maybe half of them are able to be interacted with. Even the 8 main characters don't interact with each other aside from small dialogues between chapters for each character. The combat mechanics and music are great though, but this is more of an RPG Maker title than something Square should have put out.

    An enjoyable game for a jrpg fan like myself. Looks and feels like what a 16bit game from the 90s would be like on modern hardware.

    Nostalgic for Classic JRPGs

    This game reminds me of one of my favorite JRPGs of all time - Final Fantasy 6. I grew up on this type RPG, but I do find it hard to back to turn based after being spoiled with various real time battle systems. The artwork and music are amazing, but I find the character development to be a bit lacking at times. Exploration is heavily rewarded, and there are many ways to customize your party with the job systems. If you are feeling nostalgic for a classic JRPG, this game is right up your alley.
