I KickStarted this game years ago, and I am very pleased with how it came out. It feels just like the classic's the Koji Igarashi is known for, but it's also got a lot of newer content that really helps bring newer life to the game. Character customization, good weapon variation and combat, varied familiars, soundtrack and story are all fantastic. Dialogue can be 'strange' at times, but I found it grew on me quick. I do have two complaints. One: the shard animation needs a 3rd setting, only activating on story specific or rare gathers. I turned it off pretty fast, but I wouldn't mind seeing it for the important shards that are needed to progress or are very powerful. Two: The Aqua Stream shard needs to be either a 100% drop for your first kill, added to shardcontainer, or be much less cryptic. I wandered for about 2 hours before I had to look up that a random mob drop was required to progress. Every minute I enjoy the game more and more though, and would absolutely advise it to those who haven't played yet.
