I've tried to like this game so many times, but I just couldn't. I love JRPG's, but the story is bad and I think the only reason people says it's good is because of the twist ending. And they even fucked over that in the sequel

Slow paced story heavy on exposition and proper nouns that promises payoffs that never come while not doing anything too creative or weird that would alienate people.
You see the exact same thing with Kiseki and a self-deprecating version of this in Kingdom Hearts (due to being so whacko and mainstream that complete reverence by the majority is impossible).
There are a lot of people who are easy to snare in the sunk cost rationalization trap.

it has nice graphics and a good battle system. the rest is nostalgia

There's plenty of good if you look at it piecemeal. The music's strong, the aesthetics are nice, the djinn system is really cool in theory, there's a good core to the story. It's okay to admit that it has strong qualities in spite of the terrible writing and poor game balance.

Babies first JRPG, it's complete dogshit compared to the JRPGS from the 90s.
Joshua Kelly
I know this isn't the thread for it but I totally agree with Kiseki. What point is there building up your world and characters if nothing is done with it? And you're continually grounded? Never feels like stakes are ever raised, and when they are raised, it is only to some degree before it comes back to Normalcy. JRPGs to me should take you to fantastical places or have sweeping moments that you can only find in fiction, not spending your time doing errands for anything but sidequests.

I think it was a decent JRPG on all levels except the dialogue. It's just the dialogue was so bad it drains massively from the rest of the game. The story was pretty unoriginal too.

Not really, it´s pretty good considering the graphical quality and the system is was released on, nothing groundbreaking but an IP that Nintendo forgot, I would accept that it is dead if not for the fact that the last game ended in one big cliffhanger, what the fuck?
