Absolutely incredible game. It will not be for everyone. There are some clunky aspects that may turn some people away. However, if you can get past those and appreciate the staggering attention to detail and beautiful game world they have crafted for us to explore, then you will have a great time. I cannot wait to continue my journey in Pywel.

It's good!

I haven't played much of this, but it is incredibly impressive so far, especially for a solo dev.

There is a ton of loot to find, and all of it is awesome. Even from the very start you are handed items with super cool and unique abilities on them that can completely change up your playstyle. From the very start, you're getting items with cool synergies that get your brain thinking about build possibilities.

The art design is fantastic, with a gritty look that is simultaneously old-school and modern. The movement mechanics are a joy to play with and make you feel like a god looking down upon the landscape as you dash and jump your way through the sky before landing with a thunderous lightning strike and annihilating the enemies before you.

I haven't even fought a major boss yet, but I am really looking forward to making more progress through this game and also seeing where the updates take it!

Really great little JRPG. Lighthearted and wholesome, but with some real dark moments to contrast. Definitely teared up a few times. The characters are so great and the dialog made me laugh out loud at some moments. Highly recommend if you want a quick and cute JRPG.

This is my first Rune Factory game, but if they continue to be as good as this one, it won't be my last. I'm loving the vibes and the character interactions. I've heard the farming is dumbed down compared to previous games in the series, but it's the perfect level for me. I can be as involved or as hands-off with it as I want since all my villagers take care of it for me. Story is pretty standard anime stuff but it's good. Combat is nothing amazing but is fun enough.

Iroha is cute.

I honestly have been unable to get into deckbuilders like Slay the Spire and Monster Train, but I tried this one out on Game Pass and I was immediately hooked. The sheer amount of combination with the clans and their champions and the absolutely busted runs you can get going with the right cards is just so satisfying. I highly recommend checking this out if you're someone who loves build variety and making games break their own mechanics with insane interactions. 10/10.

I gotta try to help counteract the negative reviews. Game is amazing so far.

This was my first time playing any of the Atlus JRPGs and it blew me away. As someone who was intrigued by Persona for a very long time, but never took the dive in, this felt like an excellent first entry that will hopefully lead to me picking up and playing some of the previous games. Fantastic worldbuilding, lovable characters, exciting gameplay, and an absolutely amazing soundtrack make this one of my favorite gaming experiences that I've had in a long time.

Highly, highly recommend!

I just want to add another positive review here because the game is easily one of the best co-op experiences of my life and the devs are clearly passionate about doing the best they can. Thankfully Sony has backtracked on their major faux pas, so all is well in the world again.

Hopefully the people who reviewed negatively come back and change it to positive but I'm doing my part!

Play it. 10/10
