Empty-Feeling, But Not Necessarily Bad
This review is for the PlayStation version
Preliminary: I'm scared 
This feels quite innocuous and empty so far. But I do like the slightly more modern Look it feels bubblier and fuller than SNES/Genesis as the next gen should. And the walking is fast and there are QoL features. Hmmm
But the battle system feels empty as does the balancing. And I don't have tiem rn for empty-feeling long games! I'll add it to RPG Replay and move on.
Look: 7.5/10 Not nearly as impressive as it should be for a PS1 RPG, but still, nice.
Sound: 7.5/10
Play: 6.5/10
Feel: 6.5/10
Attachment: 6.5/10 If I return to this and it clicks a bit more, this could get 3+ stars.
Overall: 6.9/10
