That’s nice, maybe I’ll buy it on sale for $5 one day.
I feel as if it is worth the price its currently at. I got 60 hours out of it, without even doing 100% of the acheivements.

Since you’ve played it, I do have a couple of questions.

1). I haven’t played really any JRPGs before so is this game friendly to newcomers or not really? It looks really beautiful and that caught my eye when I first saw it

2). Do I need to play the previous one to understand what’s going on?

It was also my first JRPG, and I would say it’s pretty easy to grasp the concepts of it.

No, it’s a separate story line.

Awesome. Appreciate the response!
