At first, it felt like the game was way too basic for it's own good, but the more skills you unlock, the more you remember that this is an rpg, a beat em up rpg with painting-esque visuals that, while breathtaking at times, can be distracting and can create clutter. The audio is great, the narrator was a little strange at first, but it quickly started feeling like I was playing a round of dungeons and dragons, and the magic of this game started to properly settle in, as for the music, it was somewhat standard, but simple doesn't mean bad, it's almost always fitting. The game was really good from start to finish (first ancient dragon battle, I'll probably go for the rest of the game). Now I have to talk about the controversial elements. I found the questionable aspects far tamer than some critics and fans have pointed, sorceress and especially amazon were done in a way that simply doesn't look like it's trying to appeal to a general audience of people who look for fanservice, it somewhat felt reasonable with amazon, and slightly less so with the sorceress. This, however, doesn't mean that I didn't feel uncomfortable, especially with the monk and the mage's tower's spirit who were in positions that very clearly pander to a specific audience.
Overall, the game is fun and I'm glad I checked it out despite some controversy that I've heard from friends who recommended this to me : 8/10
