Overall this is a 10/10 RPG that's super approachable even if you've never played a SaGa game before and still fun enough and challenging if you have. You can tell that there was a ton of love and passion put in to this remake keeping it both faithful to my old memories while also making it a better play experience across the board. The music arrangements are all absolutely perfect and the visuals, while basic, are charming. If you're looking for a good RPG with fun party build variety this is now one of my top recommendations. Overall it's pretty short, but there's so many different ways to approach it that I think I'll put at least another playthrough into it with the higher unlocked difficulty.

Very very good game overall, but I won't give it a recommend until the performance issues are fixed.

The legacy dungeons are some of the best souls areas I've played to date with insanely memorable and fun bosses. The special weapons in this game were very fun to use enough that I still want to play more to have a chance to use some of the others. The ashes of war really gives a lot of life to all the weapons both in the weapon actions they give and the scaling options you have access to.

However, the open world binding it together often felt like it was doing more harm than it was good. I loved running around and discovering things on its own, but the vast majority of catacombs and even some caves felt like awfully designed cookie cutter stuff straight out of dark souls 2. It becomes even more frustrating when you go from an amazing legacy dungeon straight in to a catacomb, something that happens more often than it really should have. There were many good and unique dungeons on the overworld and I really wish that could be said about all of them.

If the game ever runs at a reasonable framerate, doesn't stutter constantly, and doesn't crash randomly all the damn time, I would definitely say any fan of souls games will really enjoy this game.

the game still has issues with stability and capcom still has issues with communicating but it's still monster hunter i guess

it's an ok anime mmo if you don't mind the fact that it is f2p and tries to make you spend money on it as much as possible. You can totally enjoy the game with some friends without spending any money on it but if you expect to be able to do anything by yourself then expect to spend at least $15 per character just to get it going and an infinite number of money to make it perfect
