@MatGrowcott I agree that there doesn't need to be a massive jump in difficulty I just would have liked to have been put to the test by bosses especially. When you think of Final Fantasy VII you can't help but remember the times when you had to level up into Ray Whinston to even have a chance against certain enemies. Do you think this kind of grind still has a place in modern gaming?
@Gemuarto you sound like a girlfriend who has crossed the line and must repent lol
@Gemuarto Sounds like you belong to a community of know it all hipsters mate. There's nothing to suggest that this game isn't enjoyable. I was sceptical at first too when I was told I had to review a game about a Faerie Princess but I had a great time with it. I think you have a problem with the review because you're not the intended audience... you're a bit of a connoisseur when it comes to JRPGs after all... When critics write reviews we try to appeal to as broad an audience as possible and its good practise to assume when we begin to write that the reader knows absolutely nothing about the subject. If this is the only JRPG you will ever play you will find it incredibly enjoyable.
@MatGrowcott Nice review, I agree with you on most things except for the difficulty of the game. I think it could benefit from presenting a greater challenge. Even on hard mode, the worst gamer I've ever met in my life (my housemate), experienced his first death at the final boss.
