This game feels like the developers are telling japanese companies like Square Enix how to make JRPGs with modern graphics, but without the millions of dollars Square and so on put on them.

It's like the second game I've seen of the Xbox showcase yesterday, and it surprised me. Being turn based I am sure this is the kind of game I'd enjoy, much like the Divinity Original Sin games, one of my favourite videogames series.

This is getting great reviews btw. I'm glad it's not just a pretty face everything.

I played the opening and it's surprisingly engaging. Very interesting tone they've gone for.

Something is a bit off with the shadows on PC. They're really noisy. Might look on XSX later. Hurrah for Gamepass!
 
This is an amazing game, and it's running very well on my Rtx 2060 laptop too. Alex would be happy as this has no shader comp stutters at all.
 
I am not so big into round based RPG - but I am fascinated by the art style and the spectacle of the combat, so I bought it. Really cool and nice looking, I hope I can understand/adjust to the round based combat :)
 
Love this game. I can’t seem to fully understand lumina and how to upgrade my weapons just yet. Everything else seems sort of clear. Though Lunes stains not so clear. Maybe I’m not far enough yet, to unlock all the tutorials.

Trading to use the items at camp to move the weapons to level 3. But can’t seem to find a way to do it

turn based combat can be so fun. I learnt not many years ago, 4 years ago in fact, when I completed Divinity Original Sin. I had never completed a turn-based RPG be it JRPG or a more typical RPG before then. I fell in love with the genre. Since then, it's the genre I've played the most, I recently completed Xcom 2.
