Square Enix takes back everything pokemon stole from them and with serious style!

The first hour or so isnt so great. Rocky introduction to a very complex battle system and slightly less than average quality story for a square Enix game. But once you're into the story and actually playing the game, damn. I really enjoy this. The turn based combat and music and setting are reallly 90s! Great details, great style. It's not a hyper masculine game but more androgynous so keep that in mind but if full voice acting, full orchestra, turn-based 90s art and style are things you like, I really think you'll like this game.

Seen it had Serah Farron and others from FF13-2. Spent hours grinding threw the game, finding Lighting and Snow mar-jewels about 40 hours in, for the remainder of the game stayed in littlekin form to be able to use the champion mar-jewels. Finally after the final boss got Serah Farron's mar-jewel at 90 hours. Proceeded to turn on free AP Cheat for the first time and spam Serah signature Ultima Arrow ability on Reyen and Curaga on Lann for the last 15 hours of postgame and dlc until I seen the secret ending after completing everything getting all achievements and gold staring every mirage.

Things that need changing to make the game perfect. There are 236* unique imprisem-able mirages but you can only hold 200+12. So it is not possible to have a gold star on every mirage you are forced to transform them. There are over 150* unique mar-jewels you can only hold 120. You are forced to discard them to even gold star mirages because without space you can spend SP on mar-jewel dots. Kinda lame, I wish you could keep up to 2 copies of every mar-jewel so both Lann and Reyen can have there own copy. Right now you cant even have 1 of each.

It would also be nice if the gender restriction was removed from the champion mar-jewels. It limits the possible builds. I wish to use both lightning mar-jewel and serah mar-jewel at the same time.

All of these changes could be solved with a mod or 1 quick dirty update, as it is just a matter of increasing a max value in the prismarium-case to 250 or more, and mar-jewel menu to 300*, and removing a equip restriction the champion mar-jewels.

I also wish you could cycle between gold star upgrades instead of it being a final choice. But this is side issue.
