  1. Mitchell: literally the best reviewer in the entire company. Points out pros and cons, quality of life and explains the combat.

    The rest of IGN: "This game is an absolute masterpiece and is singlehandedly the greatest game ever made. 7/10"

  2. 8/10 seems rather excessive… The game feels closer to 6/10.

    -Side Quests that are actually closer to challenges than actual quests. The mission is always "kill an enemy with this method" or "find this item and return it to quest giver".

    -Horrible replayability. Imagine spending days to get the best equipment for your team, only to find out that there's no level scaling in EX New Game, and everything dies in one hit if you carry over level and/or equip your best items.

    -Needlessly large maps that only served to extend playtime. The city feels dead and empty; nothing to do except talking to pedestrians or picking up "side quests" from certain NPCs.

    -Anti climatic events. One moment, you ran for your life as you were being chased by a very huge enemy. Then came the cutscenes and boom! Mission complete, chapter end.

    -Overly bloated playtime. The story itself was quite short; you fight three consecutive battles and that's it: one story phases out of twelve is complete.
