Very solid love letter to 16 bit (and even PSX era) JRPGs. Is also able to do its own thing. Excellent battle system, a great deal of variety with party members and excellent customization potential. While I won't do a replay anytime soon, the numerous members, customization and pick-your-own-skills makes it so future replays can all be different.
That said, some mechanics are very rough around the edges, post game content is fairly meh, and while there are a good amount of playable characters, it's pretty easy to identify 6 that are the objective best members that won't spend a lot of time on the bench.
Still very much worth the 25 dollars. Playthrough took about 40 hours, and can see myself revisiting in the future.
This is free on XBox Game Pass so i'm gonna give it a little bit of my time
