This was on my grandson's list for a gift. He was so happy to get it he actually wanted me to watch him play for awhile. This never happens but I can say he has really enjoyed it, plus we have had conversations about his gaming. Who knew a game could open a conversation with a teenager.

I've practically sold my soul to this game now! There is so much replayability with four different story routes and so many lovable characters! I am currently on my third playthrough, and have 160 hours put into this game. Needless to say one playthrough took me 70 hours so make sure you are ready to invest a lot of time and tears for these characters and this story. Every playthrough gives you more information about the world, your characters origins, the other characters and their interactions and very different routes once you hit the post timeskip

I have played around 10 hours over the weekend and have thoroughly enjoyed my time. The strategic battles are fantastic and the ability to talk to nearly everyone in the game in between battles is incredible. I have not had this much fun with an RPG since Octopath traveler came out. Just go out and treat yourself you will not regret it.
