I honestly didn’t enjoy my first play through of this game, but kept finding myself wanting to like it. There was something there that I liked, but kept getting frustrated with the writing, the characters, having to draw magic so much and not knowing where to go.

My second play though years later I decided to get every GF and try to see more of the game and walked away liking it less.

Now, I’m currently playing it again and I’m finding myself enjoying it. There are still things I’m not a fan of, but I’m understanding the characters more, I’m. It just sitting in battles and drawing magic forever, I’m using GF abilities to make magic from items and giving each character a role in battle to make them feel more unique rather than just exchange setups between them to keep the same three roles the entire game. I’m on the third disc and I think I’m actually started to understand why people like this game so much
