J'avais acheté ce jeu pour la collaboration avec le Studio Ghibli qui rendait l'univers spécial et attirant. Mais le jeu en lui-même souffre d'un gameplay obsolète, une courbe de difficulté mal dosée et un système de gestion d'XP des personnages et familiers qui rend l'ensemble laborieux. Au final, j'y revenais dessus sans plaisir, juste pour finir l'aventure en zappant les dernières quêtes secondaires qui n'avaient plus d'intérêt et étaient très répétitives. Maintenant, je me demande bien si je poursuivrais avec le second opus...

Genre - [JRPG | Open World | Fighting]
Difficulty Range - [Low, Moderate]
Game depends on how you're leveled (Wow IKR foreign concept in a JRPG).
The overall control scheme of "turn based menu while in a real time battle" takes some time to gets used to but it makes for some good fights with great strategy later on.
Replayability - Moderate
It's a one off experience and unless you started on normal and want to go for hard there's not that much replayability
However there IS the familiar system which is basically Pokemon which can offer replayability.
-----------------------------------------
Positives
>> The atmosphere is insane. It's basically a Studio Ghibli movie but a game and the world reflects it so beautifully.
>> Story is also great although a bit childish but it falls in line with the "Studio Ghibli" aesthetic.
>> The OST is also great.
>> Gameplay is fun as hell with the hybrid "real time menu based" combat system.
>> We have a Scottish fairy. Do I need to say more?
-----------------------------------------
Negatives
>> The sequel falls really short.
>> The familiar system can feel a bit wonky and complicated to understand but I'm being nitpicky here.

It's game for teenagers but I enjoyed too )
Ghibli animations... not a bad story
It's interactive anime :)
