    Oh boy, another ARPG from Square Enix with the same combat system!

    Sure, change the only thing I liked about a game with a terrible story and flat unlikable characters, I’ll buy that

          Honestly, love it. It’s terrible and cheesy and fun.

          It would have been a classic, if it wasn’t the one following… Final Fantasy 7 and VI.

            It was the characters that killed. They were just so flat and unlikable, they were all like cardboard cutouts of tropes except rinoa and Laguna’s friends. I spent my time helping them win and hoping they’d lose lol

            I do love he junction system though, it was brilliant and saved the game for me

              Draw/Junction and triple triad made it, absolutely. I agree with you on all other points. I played as an edgy scene kid tho, so at the time the stilted “DGAF” dialogue worked for me. Eyes on Me was also an early 00s RPG banger.
