Great RPG, fantastic depth in combat and a compelling story. On the hardest difficulty it has been satisfyingly challenging without being ridiculous, the hardest fight so far took me ~15 tries but I was a bit undergeared I think. Most bosses took 2-5 tries. Only annoyance is whenever you find better gear it isn't actually an upgrade when you first find it until you swap all your good gems into it which is a lot of moving things around in menus (the gems are really good and fun to tinker with though so personally I really enjoyed moving them around in menus thinking about the different ways to combine them)

Absolute masterpiece. A modern classic that deserves a play by every fan of the genre. The entire game feels like a love letter to retro rpg's from the past, but with all the modern features you'd expect. Including some of the best combat I've seen in any rpg in a long time. Even up until the end of the game, I was changing my combat playstyle, trying new formations, combos, etc.
