It lived up to my expectations: there are plenty of big, dumb monster shenanigans to be found here.

I absolutely will not suggest buying this game. It’s just bad. For the first time, I wish there was a rating below “Not Recommended”.

In the end, I felt cheated when the credits started to roll. I wanted so much more from this game.

You absolutely must play it if you’re a fan of JRPGs, or RPGs, or the Yakuza franchise, or just Sega in general… Hell, even if none of those things describes you, I’d recommend giving it a chance.

If you're a fan of classic, level-based 2D platformers and haven't played this one, you definitely should.

There is no map. There is no need for a map. There is no way to get lost. You go forward. Then, you continue to go forward. Once you've gone forward enough, the game ends.

I like this remake so, so, so much more than the original. It has quickly become one of my favorite Final Fantasy games and any fan of the series owes it to themselves to give this one a try.

I’d strongly recommend this one. There can never be enough quality metroidvanias, after all.

This one is interesting and unique enough that I’d say this is a must play for horror fans.

If this had started at a lower price point or had been DLC that cost $20 or $30 less, I would have recommended it wholeheartedly. However, this just doesn’t feel like a full game.
