Main game
3.31 average rating based on 95 ratings
Played this without playing the first 2 games when I was a kid (it was hard to get ahold of specific games where I lived so we didn't get to be too choosy). My standards were probably pretty low back then lol but I remember really liking this game.
Ok, this game was even worse than Grandia 2 which I rated as average. Grandia 3 can be said to be average as well but that's just me being kind here. It started relatively well but went downhill from then on. The story was like, bad, in one word, the characters were... average? aside from Ulf who was on the better side the rest were average and with no particular personalities that stood out, heck the MC was annoying with all the "I want to fly" all the time, I mean I too want to fly but I don't go that far. The heroine, Alfina is as annoying as they come being the masochistic brocon that she is all the time chasing after her big brother and crying all the time. The drama of this game really tired me out, to the point I felt like puking. For the music part there was also nothing particularly worth listening to.
Quirky game with a story that isn't very complex or unique but still has personality. It can be grindy and long, so is much better if experienced with an emulator able to speed up gameplay. Not for everyone, but decent game if you like this era of jrpg and don't mind the length.
I really liked this game a lot, but I got distracted by other games coming out. I'd love to go back to it sometime.
