How it feels

A slow, thoughtful turn-based RPG that feels like exploring a melancholy virtual world built from regret, with a story-focused, emotionally subdued pace.

What players say

Players praise the character writing and sense of camaraderie as a big improvement over the first game, but combat is widely criticized as too easy and dungeon design as repetitive. The game's pacing draws mixed reactions, and some players note the lack of post-game content.
