Numerama
An addictive and devilishly effective combat system
An exciting and well-crafted story
The sumptuous music of Yasunori Nishiki
the absence of French translation for the texts (for now)
It may seem long to spend a hundred hours to see the end of it.
You have to love classic J-RPGs.

Vandal
The new mechanics are entertaining and offer more depth to the game as a whole.
The graphics, which delight us once again with a magnificent use of HD-2D style, this time with a more vintage aesthetic.
An argument greatly improved compared to the original in which
Although not being able to speak Spanish will hinder the experience of many players.
The fights are becoming somewhat chaotic.

Areajugones
The villains are among the best you will see in a long time.
Being able to bring 8 different characters with multiple weapon classes adds a lot of life to the gameplay.
The fact that the protagonist has an interchangeable role gives you even more possibilities in battles.
The villa's construction model is addictive and functional.
The game seems as charming as the previous ones.
The difficulty is very well balanced: they don't crush you, but you don't crush them either.
The lack of Spanish is a huge loss for the players.
It can become tedious to achieve certain improvements to the villa.
A few minor hiccups occurred during the card change.

Combat feels much more tactical than previous entries, thanks to fielding eight characters in battle and more involved progression systems
Town-building mechanics feel good and tie in nicely with overall exploration progress
The sheer amount of freedom to go anywhere works with the Path Action system
Excellent HD-2D visuals and soundtrack
Not the most compelling plot and the complete lack of dialogue from the custom protagonist doesn't help
Hefty amount of backtracking in some areas, which compounds the tedium caused by random battles
Some iffy performances
Level layouts can be pretty basic
More involved stories for each companion and settler would have been nice
